The best money we spent in analyzing our franchise opportunity by a long shot. The advice was practical and sound. I would recommend Jeff Wheelock to any person that is evaluating a franchise opportunity and implore them that his review of the franchise documents is a critical part of the due diligence process.

Jason L.

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.

Alice H.

Jeff is very knowledgeable, takes pride in his work and really has your best interest at heart. He took the time to explain everything in language I could understand. I now have more confidence in knowing what I am getting into. I would definitely recommend Jeff.
