Phillip H. Rudolph

"One of my favorite writers, Mark Twain, has been quoted as having said: 'Laws control the lesser man...right conduct controls the greater one.' It is a privilege and a pleasure to have the opportunity to oversee the legal functions and participate in the leadership of a company where the emphasis on doing things well and doing things right governs what we do and how we do it. We know that this is critical to our franchise community as well, and we never lose sight of the fact that the success of our franchise relationships depends as much on mutual trust, respect and integrity as it does on legal documents that define these relationships."
