Hello, I bought a property from a developer in Q4 2023 and got the keys handed over in November 2023. They have returned to me to pay additional service charges for the entire year although I purchased the flat from the previous owner in the last quarter of the year. I sent them multiple emails to explain the reason behind it and to ask them to send any legal statement showing that the new owners are responsible for paying additional fees, though this is unfair from my perspective as I have been the owner of the property starting from Nov 2023. Some friends told me that they received a letter from their lawyers which they sent to the developer questioning this procedure and refusing to pay this. Since I don't have such a statement to send to them as well, is there any opportunity for somebody to help me in writing one, hopefully getting the chance not to pay the additional fees? Thanks!

Dear Sir/Madam, My partner and I are non-Muslim expatriates who want to apply for a civil marriage in Dubai.

Should the agreement be attested and legalized before it can be filed with the marriage application?

Hello, I have a civil case for a bounced check and a travel ban. My passport has expired and can only be renewed in my home country. Due to the travel ban, it is not possible to exit and renew the passport. With an expired passport, I can't work. What are the options in this situation? Can my wife take this case and start paying in installments so that I can go to renew his passport and come back? Thank you!
