Subject
Pre-launch retail fintech — copy + disclaimer review, FTC Section 5, PA UTPCPL, SEC marketing
Body
To the Consumer Financial Services Practice Group at Duane Morris LLP,
My name is Kristerpher Henderson, and I am the founder of MooseQuest LLC, a Pennsylvania single-member LLC building Raxx — a rule-based trade-management platform that helps retail options traders enforce the structured entry, credit, and exit rules they define before any capital moves. We are in pre-launch personal-use testing and approaching a public launch within the near term.
I identified Duane Morris through your firm's consumer financial services track record in Philadelphia and your documented experience at the intersection of fintech product positioning and consumer-protection regulatory exposure. That combination — financial-technology context plus PA and FTC familiarity — is exactly what this review requires.
What I need: A focused 2-hour copy and disclaimer review of the getraxx.com marketing copy, covering:
- FTC Section 5 truth-in-advertising substantiation — specifically whether newcomer-audience copy framing Raxx as a structured starting point for new traders creates an implied outcome claim under the FTC's "capacity to deceive" standard
- PA UTPCPL strict-liability exposure following the 2021 Gregg v. Ameriprise ruling — given MooseQuest LLC is a PA entity, any landing-page copy with the capacity to be interpreted in a misleading way creates potential exposure regardless of intent
- Footer and proximate disclaimer adequacy — we have drafted language but need attorney review before it goes live
- SEC §202(a)(11) investment-adviser perimeter — confirming that a tool operating exclusively on user-defined rules, with retrospective results and no personalized recommendations, sits outside the advisory definition, and identifying the specific product behavior that would cross that line
I have staged a full compliance brief (PA UTPCPL analysis, FTC precedent review, SEC no-action framing) and a prepared question list that I can share before any call. Our budget for this initial review is $700–$1,200 flat for the 2-hour session. If your fee structure differs, I am glad to discuss.
Would someone on your consumer financial services team be available for a consultation in the next two to three weeks? I am flexible on timing.
