BaghdadiLaw’s experience in delay claims and extensions of time
BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to project delay claims, with practical knowledge of event chronology, programme impact and responsibility for the period of delay. We handle project delay, extensions of time and related cost claims. We address variations, late handover or approvals and overlapping causes, connecting events to the programme, responsibility and completion impact.
We review programmes, notices, variations and project correspondence, prepare extension-of-time and compensation claims or defences, and assess delay damages. We act for contractors and owners in negotiation and formal proceedings.
We coordinate programme analysis and technical expertise with notices, claims and responses to delay penalties. We negotiate or represent clients, distinguishing time relief from cost recovery and explaining the basis of each.

Before requesting delay claims and extensions of time advice.
Does a late project automatically establish an extension entitlement?+
No. Compare the programme, actual progress, alleged delay events and contractual notices. Identify cause and effect and any overlapping delays. The required technical analysis should support the particular period claimed rather than simply state the completion overrun.
Can a delay claim succeed without programme records?+
Reliable programme and contemporaneous records are often important. The contract, causation evidence, actual progress, notices, and available expert analysis must be assessed.
Should disputed work continue?+
That depends on the contract, safety, payment, instructions, suspension rights, termination risk, and consequences of stopping. Advice should be obtained before unilateral action.
How are fees set?+
By the question, documents, urgency and deliverable. We confirm scope and fees before work; additional work is agreed separately.
How is my information handled?+
Confidentially under professional and privacy obligations, subject to legally required or permitted disclosures. Agree the secure handling method before sharing originals or highly sensitive information.
Does advice include representation?+
Representation begins with an agreed engagement covering the responsible lawyer, forum, work and fees. Filing, appearances, notarisation and negotiation are included when agreed. Outcomes depend on the facts, evidence, applicable law and decisions of the competent authority.
