Mills Oakley Lawyers
Since 1864 Mills Oakley Lawyers has been dedicated to delivering outstanding commercial solutions for our clients. With offices in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane we have the ability to provide expert advice in relation to all areas of concern for franchisors and franchisees. Our legal expertise is complimented by our understanding of the underlying commercial issues.
Why work with us?
Advising in this area requires familiarity with a number of key legal concepts
and an understanding of what is and what is not ‘standard’ or ‘acceptable’
within the confines of a relational contract like a franchise agreement.
Our team has expertise in contract law, trade practices, intellectual property,
commercial litigation, retail leasing, employment law and international trade.
