Plave Koch
Boutique franchise and trademark law firm outside Washington, D.C.
Regions: US
Plave Koch is a boutique law firm focused on franchise, trademark, and business law, based just outside Washington, D.C. Their franchise practice covers FDD preparation and registration, franchise agreement drafting, and brand protection through trademark counsel — a natural pairing for a wellness franchisor whose brand name and logo are core assets. As a smaller firm, expect more direct access to senior attorneys than at a large national practice, which can matter for a first-time franchisor navigating FDD drafting for the first time and wanting continuity with one attorney throughout the process.
