At martinsdelima, we have extensive experience in the area of franchises and agency agreements, assisting both international restaurant groups and national companies from various sectors—franchisors, franchisees, and agents (textile, restaurant, professional machinery)—to protect their positioning, customer network, and the integrity of their business models, given that this sector is particularly sensitive to the correct execution of commercial agreements.

Economic expert reports

We provide economic rigor and an independent perspective in situations of conflict between agents, franchisors, franchisees, delegates, subsidiaries, or any party under a commercial agreement. We evaluate the operational performance of franchisees, analyze contractual breaches, non-payment of fees and royalties, and assess damages.

We also have extensive experience in agency agreements, including disputes between commercial agents, calculation of compensation for clientele, damages arising from breaches of the territorial scope or customer portfolio, contractual terminations without notice, and quantification of direct damages and lost profits.
