Starting a business can be exciting, but it can also be extremely challenging between developing a brand, marketing, creating systems to provide services or goods, and completing the necessary day-to-day administrative tasks. Starting a business through purchasing a franchise can often be a way to give yourself a jump start on the common challenges facing an entrepreneur. 

On October 1, 2018, a new non-compete law went into effect in Massachusetts that concerns a business’s employees and independent contractors. For any non-competition agreement entered into on or after that date, certain statutory conditions must be met for a court to find the agreement enforceable. Franchisors and franchisees alike must be vigilant to examine their non-competition restrictions in light of the new law.

O’Hagan Meyer is proud to announce the addition of its newest partner, Sam Y. Edgerton, III. Mr. Edgerton joins the firm to service its financial institution and and sales agent clients in its Los Angeles and Orange County offices.
