His approach emphasizes understanding each client's long-term business objectives and delivering practical legal solutions that support sustainable growth.

At Spadea Lignana, Zach will work with emerging and established franchisors on franchise development, franchise disclosure documents (FDDs), franchise agreements, regulatory compliance, corporate governance, and other business matters essential to building and scaling successful franchise systems.

"I'm excited to join a firm that has established itself as a national leader in franchise law," said Bottom. "Spadea Lignana has built an outstanding reputation for helping entrepreneurs grow successful franchise brands, and I look forward to contributing to that mission while expanding our relationships."
