Meanwhile, the franchisees who had been tricked into signing the call center agreement were hit with a bill to build the thing and pay to staff it themselves. The franchisees started to get the picture. And as Tiffany started organizing them and hiring a lawyer to bargain against Unleashed Brands, she was fired.

In order to fire her, they had to fabricate complex reasons that had to do with payment defaults during COVID because she had near 100% customer ratings by basically all metrics. But seeing as her husband is a patent and trademark attorney, as soon as they fired her, she knew to take down all of her little Jim branding immediately.

But Norman Leon, one of Unleashed's attorneys, jumped in and said, wait, wait, wait, wait, don't take your trademark branding down yet. Let's mediate and resolve this. No need to startle your customers. Surely we can come to a resolution here. Worth noting that at this time Tiffany had a broken ankle and foot and was in a boot with crutches.
