I will draft ftc compliant franchise disclosure document fdd
Licensed US Attorney, Franchise Law, FDDs and Licensing Agreements
About this Gig
Under the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Franchise Rule, you cannot legally sell a franchise in the United States without a valid Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD). Selling a franchise without one is a violation of federal law.
As a licensed US Attorney (Bar #145833), I draft comprehensive, legally compliant FDDs that protect franchisors from federal penalties and franchisee lawsuits.
What is included in the FDD?
I meticulously draft all 23 federally required items, including:
- Item 3: Litigation History
- Item 4: Bankruptcy
- Items 5-7: Initial Fees and Estimated Initial Investment
- Item 11: Franchisor's Assistance, Advertising, and Training
- Item 12: Territory Rights
- Item 19: Financial Performance Representations (Earnings Claims)
Why hire me?
Franchise law firms charge upwards of $15,000 for this service. I provide attorney-level FDD drafting at a fraction of the cost by operating efficiently on Fiverr without unnecessary meetings.
Protect yourself from the FTC and furious franchisees. Choose your package and let's build your franchise legally.

FAQ
What is an FDD?
The Franchise Disclosure Document is a legal document presented to prospective buyers of a franchise in the pre-sale disclosure process. It is required by the FTC.
Do you file the FDD with state regulators?
No, this gig is for the drafting of the document. You or your registered agent will be responsible for filing it with the required franchise registration states.
What do you need from me to draft Item 19 (Earnings)?
Item 19 is optional but recommended. I will need accurate, verifiable historical financial data from your corporate-owned locations to draft this legally.
How long does it take to draft an FDD?
It is a massive document. Turnaround is typically 10 to 14 days, depending on how quickly you provide the required business data.
Will this FDD be valid in all 50 states?
Yes, it will be drafted to comply with the federal FTC Franchise Rule, which serves as the baseline for all 50 states (though some registration states require specific addendums).
