1
Q: Hi,
In a commercial case filed against me by my partner, an expert report has been issued against me, as the expert neglected my documents, even though they were critical evidence in the dispute.
I have submitted a memo to the court outlining my objections to the report. What are the chances of the judgment going against me?
Is there a possibility that the judge might return the report to the expert or appoint another one?
Lastly, if the judgment goes against me and I file an appeal, would the appellate court appoint a new expert?

I filed a case against a person but the court ordered the payment of a smaller amount. Can I appeal?




0
Q: I filed a case against a person who took my money and the court assigned an expert but the expert ignored more real evidence and reported to the court even though I sent a comment to the expert that I did not accept it.
Anyway, the court has given a decision and I won the case but for a smaller amount.
My question is can I appeal this judgment to get a correction on the amount or it is better to make a civil case for the amount again?

عرض الجميعHow to enforce a catch order on a tenant back in Dubai despite a travel ban? 0
Good morning,
I am a landlord in a case against my tenant, who has been evicted due to non-payment of rent. The court has already issued the eviction order and provided me with a list of the tenant’s furniture. I also applied for a travel ban and license blocks against the tenant.
However, I recently found out that the tenant is currently in Dubai. Since I already have a catch order from the court, could you please advise me on the following:
1. How is it possible for the tenant to re-enter the UAE despite the travel ban and catch order?
2. What is the procedure for me to follow up and activate the catch order now that the tenant is in Dubai?
3. What further steps can we take to ensure the payment settlement is enforced?
I would appreciate your urgent guidance on this matter.
Thanks!

Can I renew my visa despite having a pending police case and a travel ban? 0
I currently have a pending police case and a travel ban. My visa is about to expire and is due for renewal.
I checked with the police, and the case is still under review because the complainant has not submitted the required medical report, despite being asked for it for almost a year.
Is there a chance that my visa renewal will be rejected? Also, can I request the dismissal of the case since the complainant has failed to provide the necessary report?

Will my father’s unpaid debts affect my re-entry to Dubai on a tourist visa? 0
Hello,
My father had some debts due in Dubai, and at that time, he was unable to pay them and still hasn’t. We left the country in 2017, but my mom and I were under his sponsorship, and we didn’t cancel our residency visas.
Now I need to go back to Dubai on a work trip. I want to check if this might have any effect on me re-entering on a valid tourist visa. I’ve checked the ICP website, and it shows that my residence permit has been cancelled.

What are my legal rights if I face forced leave and defamation for refusing a salary cut? 0
I seek your advice on workplace issues in Dubai. I work full-time at a consultancy. After annual leave, I faced false allegations and harassment, and was forced to leave after refusing a salary cut linked to deployment (beyond my control).
I am registered as a Person with Disabilities (outside the UAE) and was twice hospitalized. While on forced leave, I also received an email (with the contractor copied) implying misconduct/theft, harming my reputation.
Could you clarify my legal rights under the UAE Labour Law (Decree 33/2021), MOHRE, and Federal Court procedures regarding:
- Protection from discrimination/harassment,
- Salary cuts and forced leave,
- Sick leave entitlements,
- Defamation and reputational harm, and
- Arbitrary dismissal and compensation.
What remedies can MOHRE grant, and if escalated to the Federal Court, what compensation (lost wages, damages, end-of-service, moral compensation) might I reasonably claim?

I have a labor case against the company; it's a small company working from home. After MOHRE, I filed it in the court.
3 hearings are over already, and the other party has not shown up at any hearings and has not responded to any court notifications.
They are not coming to the registered address, so the court has not been able to serve them properly either.
The trade license is active, and the company is working, putting updates on LinkedIn and all that.
How many more hearings might the court give before giving judgment?

عرض الجميعHow to respond to a non-compete legal notice from a former employer? 0
I received a legal notice from my ex-company. They claim I breached a non-compete and confidentiality undertaking by joining another company and demand that I:
• Terminate my new employment immediately,
• Stop working for any competitor for 12 months,
• Cease using or disclosing any confidential information, and
• Cease soliciting clients, partners, or staff.
I deny these allegations. I completed a full handover, have no company data, and resigned lawfully in July 2025. In fact, they never provided me with an employment visa, delayed my UAE contract by 12 months, and failed to pay me for overtime and holiday work despite repeated complaints to HR.
The workplace was toxic and harmed my mental health. Now, all of a sudden, they have started threatening me to leave the current company by sending me a legal notice.

Are non-compete and training repayment clauses valid under UAE labor law? 0
Hello,
My wife, who is on my dependent visa in the UAE, has received a job offer. She plans to remain on her dependent visa, and the hiring company has included additional terms in her employment contract.
These terms include:
- A two-year non-compete clause, preventing her from working in a competing business in the UAE after leaving the company.
- A requirement to repay AED 10,000 for training costs if she resigns within one year of starting the job.
- A clause stating that resigned or terminated employees will not receive any bonuses or incentives after leaving.
- A disclaimer that any clause violating the UAE Labour Law (Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021) will be considered invalid.
Are these conditions legally enforceable under UAE law?

- Can I file both a criminal and a civil case (will it help or will it worsen my case)?
- Can I include the surgery charges and medical charges paid by my insurance company to the hospital in the calculation of compensation?

What if someone borrows from loan apps and leaves before the first installment is due? 0
Hello,
What happens if a person takes a loan from applications such as instant loan apps and exits before the first installment is paid?
Will the immigration team pull the customer from the airport? This exit from the country is an urgent requirement and an unavoidable situation.
The first installment repayment date has not yet come.

Can I renew my visa despite having a pending police case and a travel ban? 0
I currently have a pending police case and a travel ban. My visa is about to expire and is due for renewal.
I checked with the police, and the case is still under review because the complainant has not submitted the required medical report, despite being asked for it for almost a year.
Is there a chance that my visa renewal will be rejected? Also, can I request the dismissal of the case since the complainant has failed to provide the necessary report?

I I left the UAE with some debts and I paid later while in the UK. How to check my status before visiting Dubai? 0
I had some debts when I left the UAE, which I paid later while in the UK. This was in 2017 when I left the UAE.
I want to check if there's a travel ban or any blacklist kind of status for me, as I want to travel to Dubai soon.
I have lost the Emirates ID card, and I have a new passport number as I had to renew the passport.
All I have is a scanned copy of my old passport and the visa page.
What's the procedure and cost for finding this?

Should a legal notice be bilingual, in English and Arabic? 0
Should a legal notice be bilingual? I want to send a legal notice to my business partner (non-Arab). I went to an official translator and got an official translation into Arabic.
Now I will go with three printouts to the Notary Public. It is about 8 pages in Arabic and 8 pages in English.
Question: Should I only take the Arabic printout with me and get that stamped by the Notary, then ask TABLEEGH to send the English version as an attachment to the Arabic notice?
Or should I take all 16 pages (8 Arabic + 8 English) and get the notary stamp on the last page?
The reason I ask is that sometimes the Notary does not like long notices.

Will my father’s unpaid debts affect my re-entry to Dubai on a tourist visa? 0
Hello,
My father had some debts due in Dubai, and at that time, he was unable to pay them and still hasn’t. We left the country in 2017, but my mom and I were under his sponsorship, and we didn’t cancel our residency visas.
Now I need to go back to Dubai on a work trip. I want to check if this might have any effect on me re-entering on a valid tourist visa. I’ve checked the ICP website, and it shows that my residence permit has been cancelled.

عرض الجميعHow to enforce a catch order on a tenant back in Dubai despite a travel ban? 0
Good morning,
I am a landlord in a case against my tenant, who has been evicted due to non-payment of rent. The court has already issued the eviction order and provided me with a list of the tenant’s furniture. I also applied for a travel ban and license blocks against the tenant.
However, I recently found out that the tenant is currently in Dubai. Since I already have a catch order from the court, could you please advise me on the following:
1. How is it possible for the tenant to re-enter the UAE despite the travel ban and catch order?
2. What is the procedure for me to follow up and activate the catch order now that the tenant is in Dubai?
3. What further steps can we take to ensure the payment settlement is enforced?
I would appreciate your urgent guidance on this matter.
Thanks!

I received the final decision from the court regarding the cheque execution filed. What is the next step?
How can I pay on an installment basis? How can I request the excess amount regarding the 6% of the loan amount filed, since the final verdict amount was reduced?

I appreciate your advice, and many thanks.

How to file for divorce in Dubai as a UK-married expat, seeking child custody and maintenance? 0
Hello,
I would like to file for a divorce after 18 years of marriage. We are both based in Dubai, and our marriage was registered in the UK.
I would like to get a divorce and keep custody of my youngest son, who is 7 years old, until he is at least 11. I also want to get alimony for him, either through monthly payments or a lump sum.
We have been separated since mid-April 2025.

Am I entitled to full 3 months’ pay with benefits plus EOS gratuity after sudden termination? 0
Hello,
I have been working at a company in DMCC for nearly 5 years. I work in sales with varying annual results, ranging from overachieving to underachieving in a difficult market.
This year, my manager gave me a very high target and lower targets to my colleagues. Our sales are mostly achieved in the last 3 months of the year when companies finally spend their annual budget.
Now, my manager has suddenly decided to terminate me without any warning because of performance issues. They are offering to pay the minimum end-of-service gratuity plus 3 months’ basic salary and unpaid leave days.
Am I entitled to 3 months’ full pay, including benefits, in addition to the End of Service gratuity and unpaid leave days?

Can my employer block me from joining a competitor without a non-compete clause? 0
Hello,
I don't have a non-compete clause in my contract, and I am moving to a competitor. I have given 2 months’ notice, and my current employer asked me to take 3 weeks’ garden leave until the end of my notice period.
However, today I received a letter from my current employer stating that I cannot work for a competitor for a period of 1 year, and they are also telling me not to contact any suppliers, clients, or colleagues.
Is this correct and reasonable? I can't be idle for a year. What can I do?

Can I file a complaint against my company for discrimination between employees? 0
I am working in the UAE and facing issues of workplace favoritism and possible discrimination.
Despite being a consistent top performer with many years of experience, I was rejected for a promotion that was instead given to someone with less experience and weaker performance.
When I asked for feedback, I was given contradictory and false reasons, including being told that HR rejected me based on “how I sat in the interview,” even though it was an audio-only call.
I was also told that promotions are not based on performance but on whether I had the “manager’s blessings.”
In addition, I have observed:
- Promotions are repeatedly going to people from the same community or close to managers.
- Most of the management team belongs to one community.
- Shift schedules are being changed after release to favor certain individuals.
This has created a toxic environment with no fair career growth opportunities.
My question is, under UAE labor law, do I have grounds to challenge this type of favoritism?

I was misled during the purchase of my off-plan apartment in Dubai. Can I claim compensation? 0
I believe I was misled during the purchase of my off-plan apartment in Dubai.
The sales manager strongly emphasized that the unit had a lagoon view and Burj Khalifa from the side, which was a key factor in my decision.
This lagoon view was even shown on their internal sales system, but it was never written into the official Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA).
After the handover, I discovered the apartment has no such view. I have supporting evidence, including WhatsApp messages, voice notes, and brochures that clearly mention the lagoon view.
This misrepresentation caused me financial loss, since when I tried to resell, the value was much lower without the promised view.
My questions are: based on these facts, do I have a strong legal case for misrepresentation?
Can I realistically claim compensation or a partial refund?
What steps and documents are required to evaluate the case properly?
Also, would like to know an estimate of the cost and expected time for such proceedings.

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?
