Hello, My landlord gave me 12 months’ notice for eviction because he was interested in selling the property. Now I found out he gifted the unit to his son and re-rented the property. Can I claim compensation?

Good day, I would like to seek clarification regarding the possibility of obtaining a new labour contract in Dubai while a travel ban is in place. 1. If a person currently has a travel ban, is it possible for them to obtain a new labour contract when starting a new job? 2. Can the hiring company apply for a new labour contract even if the candidate has a travel ban? 3. Will the new company be notified or become aware of the travel ban once they submit the labour contract application? For context, the candidate was previously on a spouse visa, which was successfully renewed despite the travel ban. Your guidance on this matter will be highly appreciated.

Hello, We hired a live-in domestic worker under a 2-year visa and contract/sponsorship through one of the Tadbeer companies. However, after her visa was issued, her performance dropped, and issues started arising. We invested in training her to ensure her performance; instructions and schedules were posted. All documented evidence and even improvement letters were signed by her. But it escalated into continuous repeated mistakes and negligence of duty, with risks to childcare safety, breach of privacy, and she admitted to falsifying her CV and other facts. A few days ago, she refused to work. We informed the agency, and they documented the case as refusal and abandonment for the first 2 days. They advised us to relieve her from childcare duties, which we did immediately. She kept refusing other duties. Then the agency reached out, saying she cannot be forced to work, and she left. I am confused about employer rights: is this considered resignation (with nothing written), or breach? The office says no need, as they are her sponsor, and no notice is needed to us either.

Hello, I had filed a case at RDC against my landlord as they had not responded to my legal notice for cancellation, and they had not officially renewed the contract for 2 years as well. I won the case, and the verdict came for contract cancellation. I filed for enforcement after 15 days, and it has been a month since then. The contract is still showing as active on the Dubai REST app. I had disconnected my DEWA and given notice 3 months in advance of the contract expiry date. What can I do now to ensure that they cancel the contract?

I live in Dubai. I received an eviction notice last year from the company that owned my apartment on the pretext of sale. The apartment was subsequently sold to an individual, and I have paid him the rent once. Does the eviction notice have any legal standing now?

My wife filed a divorce case due to harm. It was rejected as there was a reconciliation between us, and she took back the police complaint. That's why the court rejected her case. Now she filed an appeal with the same allegation without any new incident or any new evidence. There is no police report or medical report in the appeal court. She made many wrong allegations, which I defended; however, tomorrow we have the judgment. If her appeal is accepted and the previous judgment is reversed, what are my options? Can I file an appeal in the appeal court, or do I have to go to a higher court, as the first judgment was in my favor? And if her appeal got rejected, what are the options she will have?

We went to the hospital for an emergency and stayed for 3 days, then, before leaving, they asked us to pay 10% as per our insurance policy. After 2 weeks, they informed us that the insurance policy covers only 2k, and we have to pay 3.2k, the balance I was not informed about before. Then, they sent the invoice to debt collectors to warn us What shall we do now? I read that they have to tell us about the cost in advance. Can this debt collector sue us?

Good day! I just want to seek advice regarding my unpaid salary and gratuity. Actually, I already filed a case in MOHRE, and they released a final decision. However, until now, my previous company has refused to give me my last salary and gratuity, and they are not even replying to my messages and emails. What should I do? Thank you.

I am writing to formally seek your guidance and assistance regarding my Technical Trade License and associated joint bank account. I hold a Technical Trade License together with my business partner, Mr. K. M., who has been out of the country for the past 2–3 months. During this period, he has been unreachable and has not responded to any calls or communication. Additionally, my partner has taken an amount of AED 30,000 from me, which has not yet been repaid. We also maintain a joint bank account under the company, which I wish to close. However, the bank requires both partners’ signatures for cancellation. As my partner is absent and not cooperating, I am unable to proceed. In view of the above, I kindly request your advice and support on the following: - The process to remove my partner’s name from the Trade License. - Guidance on how to proceed with closing or freezing the joint bank account in the absence of my partner’s signature. I can file a case in India.

Hello, our business has unpaid rent. 1. The 30-day notice named my business but also wrongfully named my private name, while the rental contract is solely under the business name. I'm sure it was done in bad faith by the landlord to try to damage me personally. 2. After the 1st notice, I expected an RDC notification, and nothing came. I just logged in today on my app and saw that a verdict was pronounced on the 21st of August in this case, without me even getting an email, messages, or notification at the office to even appear at the 1st instance! How can this be handled? First of all, this rental situation should not involve my private name as the company is the sole tenant on this contract, and second, no notifications were ever sent to me, although at the office every day! Here is my WhatsApp for whoever knows what to do to successfully dispute these tricks by this landlord.

I am a UK passport holder planning to travel to Dubai soon, and I would like to ensure there are no travel bans, criminal flags, or pending cases associated with my name or passport before I travel. Could you kindly provide me with the following information: 1. The process for conducting a travel ban / criminal record check in Dubai or across the UAE. 2. The documents you require from me (passport copy, authorization letter, etc.). 3. The estimated timeline for receiving confirmation. 4. The cost of this service.

I am seeking your advice regarding a financial matter that has now escalated to the police. Below is a summary of the situation: I lent money to a lady for the purposes of her medical centre. We had a personal understanding, and she was supposed to repay me by October last year, but she has continuously delayed payment. Last month, due to her failure to repay, I filed a case. During this process, I discovered that the repayment cheques were not issued by her personally, but by her husband. The cheques were drawn against a medical centre that is different from the one she originally told me about. I have since learned that this medical centre has already been closed down. The cheques are linked to an account in Sharjah, not Dubai, and I am unsure whether this account was active at the time the cheques were issued. At present, the case is with the police. However, I am uncertain whether her actions will be treated as a fraudulent activity and formally registered as such, or whether the
