BaghdadiLaw’s experience in commercial damage compensation in the UAE

BaghdadiLaw brings nearly seven decades of legal practice, since its founding in 1957, to commercial damages claims, with detailed knowledge of breach, causation, loss assessment and the supporting transaction records and accounts. Lost revenue or added costs after a UAE commercial dispute do not establish a recoverable amount on their own. The claim needs to connect the wrongful act or breach with identifiable loss, supporting accounts and steps taken to reduce harm.

A UAE commercial damages assessment must connect breach or wrongful conduct with the claimed loss. Contractual allocation and the applicable civil or commercial framework matter; the invoice value, turnover decline and lost profit are not interchangeable measures. Break the claimed loss into dated components and connect each to the alleged breach. Forecast revenue and actual expenditure should be distinguished rather than combined into one unsupported total.

We agree the work your matter needs: Complete the loss model before demanding a total. Technical valuation may be useful for a disputed causal or accounting issue; where the evidence supports only part of the loss, negotiate that part or narrow the claim rather than exaggerate certainty. The deliverable is agreed for your file: A loss schedule distinguishing evidenced expenses, disputed assumptions and missing proof, to support a proportionate demand or settlement valuation.

Common questions

Before requesting advice on commercial damage compensation in the UAE

How is a commercial loss connected to the alleged breach?

Identify each claimed loss, its calculation and the evidence connecting it to the conduct. Separate incurred costs, lost revenue assumptions and amounts already recovered. Avoid presenting the entire business downturn as one unexplained figure.

Can projected revenue be claimed as lost profit without adjustments?

No. Revenue is not net profit. Account for costs that would have been incurred, the likelihood of the opportunity and the evidence connecting its loss to the alleged breach, rather than claiming an unsupported sales forecast.

Do agreed damages end every dispute about amount?

Review the clause and applicable rules alongside actual performance and loss; do not assume automatic recovery.
