Unconscionability and Franchise Litigation
This document discusses the use of unconscionability claims in franchise litigation. It summarizes findings from a study that found an overall 28% success rate for unconscionability claims, but only a 12% success rate when both parties were businesses. It also discusses debates around issues like arbitration clauses, damage limitations, franchise transfers, and termination provisions. Strategies discussed for both franchisees and franchisors in addressing these legal issues are also summarized.
What Lies Beneath
The document discusses various perspectives on franchise agreements and claims beyond what is written in the contract. It notes that courts will consider communications and conduct of parties, not just the written agreement. It also discusses implied covenants of good faith/fair dealing and exceptions that franchisors try to include to avoid certain claims and expand their rights under the agreement. The document examines state franchise acts and their protections for franchisees regarding registration, disclosure, termination and discrimination claims.
Evidentiary & Trial Issues in Franchise Cases

It provides examples of potential evidence, such as admissions in written documents or testimony, that could prove persuasive to a fact-finder. It also addresses challenges in introducing certain types of evidence, like subsequent remedial measures or more remote occurrences, and how to potentially overcome those challenges.

CaseDiscussion
The case Southland Corp. v. Keating (1984) centered on whether a dispute between a franchisor and franchisees must be settled through arbitration as stipulated in their agreement. The franchisees alleged the franchisor breached their contract and California law. The lower court ruled in favor of the franchisees, but the appeals court cited the Federal Arbitration Act and ruled the arbitration clause as valid and enforceable. The Supreme Court also ruled 7-2 in favor of arbitration, finding the Federal Arbitration Act took precedence over the California state law. This case established arbitration agreements as enforceable and that the Federal Arbitration Act applies to state law.

It concludes that in-house lawyers in particular must be aware of boundaries in ethical negotiations due to their unique client relationship.
Negotiation101

The document then outlines different bargaining styles used by men and women and strategies for effective negotiations, including identifying interests, creating value for both sides, and finding integrative solutions that address everyone's interests.

Top 5 Mistakes Made by "Rookie" Real Estate Agents
In real estate, like most professions, experience counts, yet many people will choose to work with a newly licensed agent simply because they are a relative or friend - often to their own detriment. Sure, newer agents are supposed to have the guidance and tutelage of a more experienced real estate broker, but in a 'hot' real estate market, new agents are often left to their own devices.
Karyn Branco CAU Trends in D&O
The document discusses emerging trends in directors and officers claims, including foreclosure counterclaims, fee shifting attempts, and claims seeking to have insurance carriers cover repair costs. It notes that many new claims stem from economic hardship and desperation. The document advocates for early analysis of claims, early response, and early conflict resolution through mediation to help manage risks for directors and officers.

Top 5 Mistakes "Rookie" Realtors Make
This document outlines the top 5 mistakes made by rookie real estate agents, as identified by attorney David Soble.

The document advises using an experienced agent as a mentor to ensure a smooth transaction

Real estate litigation lawyer

Experienced real estate litigators can help clients achieve their objectives in an efficient manner and represent various parties like secured lenders, borrowers, and landlords in state, federal, and alternative dispute resolution forums.
Old republic webinar kevin hardin
The document discusses the history of the mortgage crisis beginning in 2007 and the fraudulent foreclosure practices that emerged in its wake. It describes how hundreds of billions of dollars in risky mortgage-backed securities were sold globally and collapsed, forcing mass loan modifications and foreclosures. Loan servicers hired inexperienced staff who mishandled modifications while "robo-signers" approved foreclosures without verifying details. Widespread legal issues around mortgage ownership led to investigations and moratoriums on foreclosures. The crisis increased shadow inventories and will likely cause future price drops when properties are sold.

Florida Foreclosure Law Summary
In Florida, foreclosures must go through the court in equity and involve a judicial process. The court will oversee the foreclosure and specify how it should occur. There is a period after the foreclosure sale where parties can object to the sale terms before title officially passes. Borrowers also have a right of redemption period to reclaim the property after foreclosure. Lenders can pursue deficiency judgments against borrowers in Florida if the foreclosure sale does not cover the full amount of the debt.
Negotiations - the art of getting things done
The document discusses a three-dimensional approach to negotiation called 3-D Negotiation. The three dimensions are tactics, deal design, and set-up. Many negotiators focus only on tactics but overlooking deal design and set-up can undermine success. When negotiations stall, diagnosing the barriers is important before determining the best strategy. The barriers could be tactical, related to the deal structure, or due to flaws in how the negotiation is set up. The right approach may involve tactics, deal design changes, or altering the negotiation set-up and parties involved.
common business dispute legal claims by business lawyer David Steinfeld.pdf
The three distinct but broad categories of claims that are commonly brought in business disputes in Florida are those grounded in contracts, those based on torts, and those provided by statute. Contract claims may be predicated on a written or oral agreement or a contract implied by law. Torts are claims based on negligence or intentional bad acts. Statutory claims are those where a specific statute defines the claim and the relief.
Lawsuits are not the only forum within which businesses can address their disputes. Businesses also have arbitration and direct resolution methods including mediation in addition to the court system. Therefore it is more appropriate to define these claims within the context of the more inclusive concept of business disputes as opposed to limiting them to just lawsuits.

This document discusses contractual obligations that companies take on to notify customers and pay costs associated with a data breach when working with third party vendors. There are two common types of obligations: 1) To make the client company whole for any costs associated with a breach, including notification and credit monitoring. However, insurance policies may not cover all costs and the vendor loses negotiating power. 2) To directly notify customers on behalf of the client company. But most policies only cover notification required by law, not contracts. Not all policies cover costs associated with contractual notification obligations. Insureds need to carefully review policies and obligations to ensure coverage aligns with contractual responsibilities in the event of a breach.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
