This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Atlantic Pinstriping LLC.

Rob was patient and informative every step of the way during our FDD creation. We had to use his FDD and franchise agreement in a dispute.... and you never truly know how good your contract is until you need to defend it. We had local attorneys here in Charlotte N.C. that won at every turn with Rob's... documents and the way that Rob had drafted them! Literally kept us in business!!

CEO of K & N Mobile Franchises, Inc.

We have worked with the Vinson Franchise Law Firm for several years. Rob has always been very responsive and has always done a great job for us. I would highly recommend Vinson Franchise Law Firm.

THE VERY BEST!

Rob Vinson has been the absolute key to our success with franchising. We know our business inside and out; however, franchising is a completely separate business with many obstacles that you will never anticipate. We have been doing business with Mr. Vinson for more than 14 years and he has been a ...life saver. He provides detailed breakdowns of any situation you may face as well as support every step of the way. We have faced some very interesting challenges and, with Rob Vinson’s help, we have come away from all of them smoothly. We have learned so much from him and are so entirely grateful for his dedication, prompt responses, and detailed support. If you are looking for someone to take stress off your shoulders, guide you through any franchise situation, and protect your brand, he should be your only choice. We have a great deal of admiration and respect for Mr. Vinson.

Great franchise lawyer!

While consulting for a client, I was able to find in Rob a great help with any kind of legal questions, especially referring to starting a brand new franchise from scratch. Rob was very patient, e-met with my customers and explained everything in a very clear and detailed way. I would strongly recomm...end Rob.

Awesome and honest

I have been working with Rob now for about 4 months and with 4 different types of contracts. He is extremely patient and knowledgeable. He answered all of my questions and prepared agreements for me with confidence. I truly would recommend him to any one that is in search of an attorney to do busines...s licensing or Franchising.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
