🏆 Recognized as the #1 Franchise Law Firm in the U.S.
We’re honored to share that The Internicola Law Firm has been ranked the #1 Franchise Legal Supplier in the United States by Entrepreneur Magazine in its 2025 Top Franchise Suppliers list.
Each year, Entrepreneur Magazine surveys hundreds of franchisors to identify the most trusted service providers in the franchise industry. In the Legal category, firms are evaluated based on client satisfaction, strategic value, growth impact, and reputation across the franchise sector.
This recognition reflects the trust our clients place in us — and the work we do every day to help franchisors build stronger legal foundations, grow with confidence, and stay protected at every stage of their franchise journey.
