Drawing 01 · Subject under inspection

Your franchise agreement is a load-bearing structure.

200 pages of clauses, schedules, and cross-references. We inspect each one, label what is structural, and flag what is going to crack under load.

Drawing 02 · Failure modes

Four reasons the document fails on its own terms.

FAIL · 01
Mode A · Density

Dense on purpose.

Fees, restrictions, and termination triggers are spread across two dozen sections in legal language. The brochure gets read. The disclosure gets skimmed.

FAIL · 02
Mode B · Schedule

14 days, no pause.

Canadian disclosure law gives you 14 calendar days. Not working days. Not minus the long weekend. Not minus the time to find counsel who returns your call.

FAIL · 03
Mode C · Distribution

Risks are split across the document.

Termination, transfer fees, supplier exclusivity, renewal. Each clause is fine alone. Read together, they tell a different story — the only one that matters.

FAIL · 04
Mode D · Sequencing

Counsel arrives too late.

By the time most buyers engage a lawyer, the deposit is paid and emotional commitment is sunk. Walking away gets harder by the day.

Drawing 03 · Inspection sequence

Three steps. No account required.

Step 01 · Intake

Upload the file.

Full FDD, schedules included. PDF only. No account, no login, no sales call.

Step 02 · Inspection

We map the load points.

Fees, termination, transfer, renewal, territory — cross-referenced, ranked by severity, tied to section numbers.

Step 03 · Report

You get the drawing.

Plain-English report. Take it to your lawyer, your accountant, or a current franchisee. Walk in prepared.

Failure points
FAIL
§14.2
Unilateral system change rights

Franchisor may modify operating standards, suppliers, and required equipment at their sole discretion. You bear the cost. Plain reading: they decide what your business looks like, you write the cheque.

WATCH
§17.1
Transfer fee + approval

$25,000 transfer fee plus franchisor approval if you sell. Approval is not “not unreasonably withheld” — it is sole discretion.

WATCH
§19.4
Post-term non-compete

Two years, 25 km radius. Enforceability varies by province but the cost to defend is yours, regardless of the outcome.

Drawing 05 · Cost of inspection

$99. Once. That’s the entire pricing page.

A franchise lawyer review runs $3K to $5K and is worth every dollar. The inspection does not replace counsel. It makes the conversation shorter, sharper, and roughly 30× cheaper to start.
