Protecting Your Franchise Investment Before You Sign Your Franchise Agreement
Schuyler guides you through a comprehensive franchise opportunity evaluation process designed to give you clarity and confidence:
- Decoding the FDD: Translating dense legal language into plain English so you understand exactly what you’re committing to
- Risk identification: Uncovering hidden obligations, restrictive clauses, and potential financial pitfalls before they become problems
- Franchise Agreement analysis: Reviewing every provision to identify terms that could impact your bottom line
- Strategic counsel: Providing actionable advice on mitigation strategies and negotiation opportunities
- True cost assessment: Helping you understand the complete financial picture including royalties, marketing fees, and ongoing obligations
- Educational support: Offering access to 50+ educational videos that empower you to make informed decisions
And when your relationship with your franchisor becomes complicated, Schuyler is there for you too. Why?
Because territory disputes, unexpected fee increases, and premature termination threats don’t follow a normal 9-to-5 schedule.
“Working with Rocky as our franchise lawyer was a great experience. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and took the time to explain every detail clearly. His guidance gave us confidence throughout the process and helped us avoid common pitfalls. We felt supported and well-informed at every step. Highly recommend.”

“I used Reidel Law Firm for FDD/Franchise Agreement review services and was really impressed with the level of service and in-depth review I received. After the completed review was sent to me, I also received an invitation for a video course that Schuyler “Rocky” Reidel put together that helped me understand the review and better articulate my questions regarding what we could ask for addendums on and what was standard for other franchise agreements. I would absolutely recommend Reidel Law Firm for any first time or seasoned franchisee!”

Rocky Reidel Delivers Practical Wisdom That Helps Protects Your Franchise Investment
Schuyler’s approach is rooted in a philosophy shaped by his own entrepreneurial experience; he left a traditional law firm after just 40 days because he saw the model was broken.
On transparency: Schuyler believes in flat-fee franchise legal services because “billing by the hour is neither efficient nor ethical for attorneys.”
In essence, you know exactly what you’ll pay before work begins—no surprise bills, no meter running.
On accessibility: “I hate robot phone menus, we will never use those at Reidel Law Firm.” When you call, you reach your Franchise Attorney directly, not layers of administrative staff.
On specialization: Rocky Reidel stays strictly within his expertise; franchise law and international trade. This focused approach means faster turnarounds, deeper insights, and more efficient service. No diluted attention, no learning curves on your dime.
On empowerment: “Competing on price is bad business… bad for you as a professional, bad for clients, and bad for an industry.” Schuyler delivers premium value through expertise and education, not by cutting corners.
Translation: Schuyler “Rocky” Reidel wants you to understand every clause, every obligation, and every risk before you invest a single dollar.
The Bottom Line
The right franchise business with proper legal protection can be an excellent path to business ownership. The right franchise opportunity with poor legal preparation, or worse, no legal review at all, can be financially and personally devastating. Something that’s hard to come back from.
“Extremely helpful in making sense of the FDD process for a new franchise venture. The team broke down everything into a useful analysis that gave me questions to ask the franchisor as well as a better understanding of what’s expected. Worth the money. Really happy to have the Reidel firm in our corner as we start down the road of owning a franchise business!”
– Matt Hale
