The right to claim refund for delay in handover after failing to complete instalments

I have purchased a studio in Dubai, 30% was paid already (AED 171,000).

The handover is getting delayed already 4 months, the developer is already in his grace period for handover but the apartment is also not registered in DLD.

I have paid almost all that I have but I am not able to pay anymore because of some financial issues.

Will I get my money back? Would it be possible to pay a lawyer after execution not in advance?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Hello,

In order to give you a clear response, I need to familiarize myself with the purchase agreement.

In addition, I need to find out the reason why there is a delay in handing over the apartment to you.

If there's any breach from their side, we can return the money with compensation of 9 % from the day of payment.
