Hello, I received a job offer from an LLC located in Al Mareija, Sharjah. Initially, they offered me a very low salary, but after I shared my current salary slip, they raised it by more than 100%. I suspect it might be a fraud, as the number provided on their website is not reachable, and the website itself is very simple and does not clearly mention the nature of their business. I have not paid anything to them but have shared my documents after the interview. I got this job offer through an Indian HR consultant. Please advise on this matter!

I got a message from the prosecution. It was like: “Criminal Report No. 27***/2025 has been registered by Criminal Case No. 7***/2025.” I checked it on the Public Prosecution’s website, but first of all, I’m not sure which number I should check as the case number — 27*** or 7*** — because these are different issues according to the website. And how can I be certain about the complainant’s side of the case or the file description?

Dear everyone, I seek advice regarding ongoing harassment from a woman whose husband I was previously involved with. The affair ended immediately after she discovered it last year, and I apologized both in person and through WhatsApp. Despite this, she has continued to harass me by sharing private photos, videos, and messages (taken from her husband’s phone without consent) with my family, friends, and workplace. She also contacted my employer, disclosed personal details, and sent insulting messages to me and my relatives. I have proof of these acts. I wish to know what legal actions I can take to stop her (harassment, defamation, or privacy violation), what evidence I should prepare, any possible counterclaims, and if this could affect her ongoing divorce case.

We are a company based in Internet City Freezone holding a DDA license. One of our employees was relieved from duty on 11th September 2025, and her visa grace period of 30 days expired on 11th October 2025. She has not obtained a new visa and is currently working elsewhere illegally without converting her visa or leaving the country. On the cancellation paper, it is written that we must inform GDFRA of non-compliance. DDA has suggested filing an absconding case; otherwise, there could be sanctions on the company and blocking of the establishment card. What should we do, and who should bear the cost of this?

Hi, I have negotiated a multiyear rental through an agency. I was expecting the fee to be 5% of the first year’s cost, but I now see the draft contract showing 5% of the total rent for 3 years. This does not seem to be standard practice based on what I’ve read. I would appreciate your advice. Thanks!

I work as a Director of Project Management in a company in DMCC. During my free time, I have tried providing Project Management Consultation to clients in the USA as a freelancer on UpWork (an Online Freelancing platform) and have seen good traction. I want to pursue this further during my free time. I am currently holding a UAE Golden Visa. 1. I would like to know if I am required to hold a freelancer permit in the UAE if I only serve clients in the USA? I don't have or plan to have any clients in the UAE or in GCC. 2. My clients in the USA have been paying me via UpWork so far, but I would like to receive this money directly via wire transfer to my UAE bank account or through online payment portals. Is this legal to do so? 3. I hold an NOC from my current employer to work on freelance projects during my free time. Can you please clarify the above questions? Jazakallah, Thank you!

Hello, I am the landlord, and my tenancy agreement is expiring on 31st December 2025. Last year, before the expiry of the earlier tenancy agreement on 21st December 2024, I served the tenant a one-year vacation notice through registered email via Emirates Post. The reason stated was personal use/sale of the property. I received a confirmation from Emirates Post. I have been told by my realtor that I should have served the notice through a notarized service. Can someone please guide me?

The company did not provide me with a visa after 10 months of working with them. They always promise that it is in process. Then they terminated me verbally.

Hello, My employer is asking me to complete a task even after my resignation (I have already completed my one-month notice) and is threatening not to cancel my visa if I refuse. It has been five days since my resignation, and I have already booked a flight. Any advice? If I file a complaint with the Labour Department, how long will the process take?
