Add ReviewI was represented by Erin Johnsen dealing with a successful franchise closure and a lease termination. Erin was very responsive and thorough with both issues. Erin and I reviewed courses of action before moving forward. She listened and gave advice related to risk and exposure of the options we were reviewing. I alway felt that Erin had my best interest in mind when giving me advice on how to proceed. I wouldn’t hesitate hiring Erin again if required. I would recommend Erin as a competent and capable attorney.Report
If you really need a franchise attorney don’t look further!!Report
Elliot Ginsburg is simply the best; behind his calm demeanor and prudent approach, there is a sharp, knowledgeable and battle tested lawyer. Strongly recommend Elliot and the team Garner, Ginsburg & Johnsen, P.A.
I sent a message after researching for a Franchise Lawyer. Erin got in contact with me in a very timely fashion, and has been with me every step of the way. Erin and I talked multiple times before my decision to go forward with my claim, and I appreciated the amount of research she had put in, the honest legal advice, and the the fact that at no time did I ever feel pressured. My claim was resolved in a short time with minimal amount of effort on my part. Erin handled everything, kept me updated on any progress, and was able to get me what I needed! She even made sure to scrutinize details of the paperwork to make sure I was protected at all angles. I appreciate how easy this is experience was for me, and that she won this claim for me!Report

I had the experience of working with Elliot Ginsburg through the Acquisition process of my business. He provided high quality service, clear explanations and prompt responsiveness to my emails and calls all the while providing great care and guidance through an unfamiliar process. I look forward to working with Elliot again and I highly recommend him and the Garner, Ginsburg, & Johnsen, P.A. team.Report
This firm came recommended to assist me in the selling of my franchise. What a wonderful recommendation it was! I was so fortunate to work with Elliot who was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive and organized! Clearly he has no sense of time as he made himself available to me at any time of day, even on weekends AND on his vacation. Who does this?Report
Supportive and communicative, Elliot made this transfer seamless! Thank you Elliot!!
I can't say enough good things about Erin Johnsen! My business partner and I reached out to the firm after we had purchased a 3 pack of a new franchise whose product we loved. My husband and I have owned a senior care franchise for over 17 years and never felt the need to consult a franchise attorney. I will never make that mistake again! When major red flags surfaced just before we signed a lease for this new business, we knew we needed an expert in franchise law.Report
Erin was such a blessing! She was extremely quick in finding things that were done during the process that are considered illegal in Minnesota. Even though the agreement stated we'd lose our franchise fees should we back out, the company quickly changed their tune when Erin presented a demand letter with her findings. We got our money back and had the non-compete clause removed!
No matter how experienced you are in business or franchising, ALWAYS consult a franchise attorney BEFORE signing anything! I wholeheartedly recommend Erin Johnsen and the whole Garner, Ginsburg & Johnsen, P.A. firm.
Elliot helped protect my business by guiding me through the Trademark process. His knowledge and foresight will give me piece of mind as I look to grow my startup business. I highly recommend Elliot and his team!Report
We had an issue which most likely would not have been resolved with franchisor directly. However, thanks to Mr. Ginsburg and his team the situation was resolved in a timely, professional manner outside of courtroom. If you are looking for an attorney in a franchise industry, Garner, Ginsburg, & Johnsen, P.A. should be your first choice!Report
I recently used Eliot and his team, and they were fantastic. He and Kirsten were both great at walking me through everything I needed to know, and did a great job of negotiating a settlement for me. (And I was referred by another client of his, who also had a really good experience with him.)Report
Highly, highly recommend.
