If you're already working with a trusted franchise attorney or firm, Zors can grant them attorney access to the platform. They’ll be able to:
🔐 View and manage FDD versions for e-sign
🗺️ Oversee territory creation and status
📝 Send contracts for electronic signature directly in-platform
📆 Monitor registration and renewal deadlines
🧾 Upload and store signed agreements for compliance
This feature makes it easy to collaborate with legal counsel in real time — and keeps everyone aligned from sales to compliance.
Franchise renewals — particularly Item 20 — require accurate tracking of your franchise system:
How many units were opened?
How many closed?
What’s the current territory status?
Which candidates have signed but not opened yet?
With Zors:
🧩 All contracts are linked to active territories and franchisees
📊 Statuses and milestones are tracked
📍 Your attorney doesn’t have to chase you for updated spreadsheets or missing agreements
💡 That means renewals are faster, more accurate, and less expensive.
It also ensures your sales and legal teams are working from the same, real-time source of truth.
What makes Zors different?
Our platform was built from the ground up by a franchise attorney (attorney Derek Colvin at Waldrop & Colvin) and a computer engineer — so we understand the high standards required for compliance and legal clarity. And when you combine that with hands-on management from a firm like Waldrop & Colvin, you unlock:
✅ Smart workflows
✅ Legal oversight
✅ Accurate records
✅ Lower risk
Your team doesn’t need to worry about:
Losing documents
Working from outdated maps
Forgetting to track state renewals
Tracking disclosures
Overlapping protected areas
It’s all handled — and it’s all visible in one place.
If you’re a current or future client of Waldrop & Colvin, you’re eligible for flat-fee, fully managed franchise support — all inside Zors.
