I have a client who is demanding a 10% reduction on the fee of an already rock bottom price, because the site is two weeks late on being delivered.

I have made countless free amends to the design and it's now almost finished. The delay is on the development side, because my business partner is being slow.

Any advice?

Unless such penalties were included in the contract/terms and conditions you both signed when you started the project he doesn't have a leg to stand on demanding any reductions I wouldn't have thought.


Give him a breakdown of time spent on amending the work you did for free which you'd be entitled to charge for if he tried to renegotiate the price, maybe that'll give him a pause for thought?


Although it's not an ideal situation if it actually is someone's fault and not the clients :/

if ya get nowhere with that approach, you could pass the less over to your partner ... ?

sure he wouldn't like it - but fair's fair ...
