BaghdadiLaw

BaghdadiLaw’s experience in payment claims

BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to construction payment claims, with a thorough understanding of completed work, payment certificates, variations and deductions. We handle construction payment certificates, retentions and additional-work claims. We act for contractors or owners in claims and defence, linking each amount to work delivered, certification, payment terms and disputed deductions.

We review certificates, measurement records and correspondence, prepare the financial and contractual claim or defence, and negotiate payment terms. We represent contractors and owners in public and private project disputes.

We build the case certificate by certificate and address measurement, completion, deductions and set-off. We handle notices, negotiation, settlement or representation, coordinating technical and accounting expertise so the legal case reflects the project and amount claimed.

Frequently asked questions

Before requesting payment claims advice.

What if the work is complete but the certificate or payment is disputed?

Compare measured work, acceptance, certification requirements and the payment clause. Reconcile retention, deductions and previous payments. Identify whether the next step concerns certification, an outstanding balance or a dispute about the work itself.

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.
