ABC Pty Ltd is a franchisee, selling dog washing services in the southern suburbs of the Perth metropolitan area. The franchisor is located in Queensland.

The franchisor has recently provided notice to ABC Pty Ltd that it intends to establish a 2nd franchise in the southern suburbs of Perth. ABC Pty Ltd is concerned that this will result in a loss of business, potentially making the business it runs unviable.

ABC Pty Ltd seeks a lawyer to provide advice and write an initial letter to the franchisor claiming that the franchisor is acting in breach of the franchise agreement that was signed by the parties when the franchise was established.
