Jeff Wheelock provides excellent service at a very reasonable rate. After his review of all the documents related to a franchise in which I was interested, he then took the time to meet one-on-one to review all of his thoughts and concerns, while offering suggestions not only for potential amendments to the agreement but strategies on how best to brooch issues with the franchisor. Exceedingly knowledgeable about franchise agreements. Very helpful! I would highly recommend him.
