Kubed Legal Melbourne

Kubed Legal is a leading franchising legal practice, providing specialist advice to franchisors and franchisees on the complex regulatory issues surrounding franchising.

Our specialist knowledge spans all aspects of franchising including contract law, competition law, intellectual property, commercial litigation, leasing, and employment related issues.

We act for many new and emerging franchise systems and national franchisors who are household names in Australia. Our franchisor clients include those in the fitness industry, health and beauty, food and the trade sector. We have worked with franchise brands who have grown from a single company owned store to over 50 franchise units in just a few years.

We pride ourselves on fostering the bond between franchisors and their franchisees and understand the importance of maintaining the commercial relationship between them.

We advise franchisors on the complexities of the Franchising Code of Conduct, drafting franchise agreements, disclosure documents and ancillary documents, sales, purchases and restructuring of franchise systems and statutory compliance (including dealing with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and complying with the Franchising Code of Conduct).

We draft breach, termination and dispute notices and represent franchisors in all forms of dispute resolution.

We advise on Intellectual Property strategy, trademark registrations and portfolio management in Australia and overseas.

We also advise prospective franchisees who are looking to purchase a franchise.

We assist them through the entire process leading to the commencement of their franchised business and beyond.

Our services include reviewing the initial franchise documentation, strategic planning and advice, sales and purchases of franchised businesses and assisting in operational issues, including dealings with their franchisors and landlords.

  • Working with Georgie Jensz and the team at Kubed Legal for the past 5 years as an emerging Franchisor has been an absolute pleasure. Together we have launched 40 successful franchise units. The on-call advice, friendly nature and professionalism is second to none and it has truly been an amazing experience. Our franchise owners have had nothing but kind words for the team at Kubed, who constantly go above and beyond on a daily basis to get the job done, who do it the right way and keep all parties as happy as physically possible. Happy franchisees mean a happy network and Kubed have really helped assist keeping the strong bond of Franchisee and Franchisor together. I would highly recommend this boutique law firm to any Franchisors who are at startup, infancy stage and all the way through to an emerging franchise network and beyond.

  • Georgie was a great help to enable us to work through a real estate business transition, going through a time of family succession hand over. She was able to seamlessly conduct the exchange of a large rent-roll while we were able to continue on with the day-to-day operations of running a business. Her knowledge of franchise operations and their nuances helped us to stay one step ahead at all times.

  • Georgie was fantastic helping us to understand all of the ins & outs of our franchise agreement. Made the complex jargon easy to understand.

  • l was recommended to use Georgie and her team at Kubed legal to resolve a business partnership and it was by far the best recommendation I’ve had to date. Georgie was professional throughout and her hunger to achieve the best outcome was commendable.

  • The team at Kubed Legal were fantastic to deal with from start to finish. I investigated different law firms for a matter at my work involving complex debt recovery cases. Justine (Law Graduate) and Steph (Lawyer) were both friendly and professional, taking the time to listen to my needs and advise the best way to proceed. Their handover to Georgie (Director) was simple & smooth – I didn’t need to repeat the details over and over again as I did with other firms. Georgie had a refreshing attitude and was very knowledgable. She raised several considerations that others had missed entirely which greatly helped with the end result. I was thoroughly impressed with the experience and will be sure to utilise their services again in future. Highly recommend.
