Background

Angel is a chartered civil engineer with over 16 years of experience in the engineering and construction industry, during which he has held various project managerial roles. His early career involved working for large contractors as a site engineer, project manager, and senior planning engineer, gaining practical experience across the civil engineering, infrastructure, building, and renewable energy (solar and wind farms) sectors.

Angel now regularly acts as a delay expert in litigation, international arbitration, and adjudication proceedings in the field of delay and disruption. He has been appointed as delay expert witness on a number of occasions and is proven as a credible expert under cross-examination both in English and Spanish.

As a forensic delay expert, Angel is highly proficient in all recognised forms of delay analysis. Backed by his broad practical experience, he is highly skilled in determining the critical path without relying on planning software. He proficiently assists legal teams by clarifying complex issues in a clear, concise, and straightforward approach, while maintaining a firm grasp of the factual details.

Beyond his expert witness experience, Angel has been retained by main contractors to prepare and provide advice on extension of time applications and by clients to assess the merits of delay and disruption claims. Angel is experienced in the use of JCT, FIDIC, and particularly the NEC form of contract, and has led training sessions on programming, project controls, and delay analysis principles for employer organisations, main contractors, and subcontractors.

Angel holds an MEng in Civil and Structural Engineering from the University of Granada and an MSc with distinction in Design, Construction, and Maintenance of Railway Infrastructure from the University Polytechnic of Catalunya. In addition, Angel holds an MSc with distinction in Construction Law and Dispute Resolution from King’s College London, where he was awarded three prizes for his performance, and two SCL prizes for Best Overall Graduate and Best Dissertation. He was also recognised by the Worshipful Company of Arbitrators Charitable Trust for the Best-Assessed Coursework in the second year.

Angel is a published author in the leading ICLR journal, where he examined extension of time provisions, and he regularly contributes articles to the industry, addressing topics related to planning and programming, delay and disruption, and NEC contractual issues.
