    Be very careful when talking to anyone at Brooke. Listen, do not talk. Do not give them copies of anything.

    Glad that news if finally getting out about the Brooke scam. Hope agents that are thinking about franchising have a chance to read this. It is a pretty common problem amongst franchisees. As a former franchisee I also had this problem, and decided to reach a settlement with them since I was just entering their franchise and wanted to keep a good relationship with them. Boy was that a mistake should have sued thier pants off.

    I too am yet another ex-franchisee. This company misrepresents everything! Thinking about purchasing an abandoned agency?! Do your homework! This company is SUPER crooked and will go down, it’s just a matter of how long. Brooke continued to refer prospects to me and I continued to tell those prospects the wicked truth! Wish I would have known what now saved those peoples families!

    For all Brooke agents looking to file a class action suit, check out the Brooke Forum at http://www.brookeforum.com or call Rhonda at 225-268-8171. You guys need to get organized and do something. There’s been alot of talk, but not much action on your part. Brooke needs to go down!

    There are several people taking actions and have been for several months and there has been a coordination of these people. The problem is that legal action takes time. A long time. The suit in this article was actually filed back in Feb of this year and I posted that on the yahoo message board back then but only now is it becoming news. There are lawfirms recruiting franchisees to represent on a contingency basis. When the sharks come out like that you know there is blood in the water.

    I’m glad there has been alot of action. I was an Area Manager with 18 franchisees at one time. Only 4 of them are still around and 2 of those are thinking of walking away. Brooke makes it easy to walk away to avoid litigation. If agents don’t rally and file a class-action, Brooke will never face the music.
