About this Gig
Are you buying a franchise or turning your business into a franchise?
Franchising is heavily regulated by the FTC. If you buy a franchise without having an attorney review the Franchise Agreement, you could be trapped in predatory royalty structures and personal guarantees. Conversely, if you try to franchise your own business without a compliant Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), the federal government will shut you down and fine you heavily.
The Solution: As a US Corporate Attorney, I specialize in franchise law drafting and review. I protect franchisees from predatory terms, and I draft compliant FDDs for franchisors ready to scale nationally.
What this gig entails (Drafting & Review Only):
- Franchise Disclosure Documents (FDD)
- Master Franchise Agreements
- Area Developer & Master License Agreements
- Franchisee Contract Reviews & Redlining
- Commercial Lease & Franchise Addendums
Disclaimer: Document drafting and review only. I do not file your FDD with state regulators or provide financial auditing.

FAQ
What is an FDD (Franchise Disclosure Document)?
It is a massive, federally mandated legal document that a franchisor must give to a potential buyer 14 days before signing. It discloses all financials, fees, and litigation history.
Can you review an FDD and Agreement a franchisor gave me?
Yes. This is my most popular service for buyers. I will review the FDD and redline the Franchise Agreement to highlight risks and hidden fees before you sign.
Can you negotiate the franchise agreement for me?
No. I act behind the scenes. I will redline the document and give you the legal ammunition, but you will handle the actual negotiation with the franchisor.
How do I stop the franchisor from taking my personal assets?
I review the Personal Guaranty clause. While franchisors rarely remove it, I can suggest drafting limits to cap your personal liability.
Do you file the FDD with state regulators?
No. This gig is strictly for the drafting of the FDD text. You must handle the physical registration in "registration states" (like CA, NY, IL).
What is an Area Developer Agreement?
It is a contract granting a buyer the exclusive rights to open multiple franchise locations in a specific geographic territory. I draft and review these.
Do you draft Operations Manuals?
No. I draft the legal Franchise Agreements and FDDs. You must write your own business Operations Manual.
Can you draft a non-compete for franchise employees?
Yes. I can include clauses requiring your franchisees to enforce strict NDAs and non-competes on their staff to protect your brand secrets.
Are your FDDs FTC compliant?
Yes. I draft Franchise Disclosure Documents following the strict 23-item format mandated by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
Why should I message you first?
Franchise documents are often 100+ pages long. Messaging me allows me to verify the page count and scope to ensure I can meet your deadline.
