سيدي العزيز / سيدتي العزيزة، أود أن يكون شخص صادق معي. أنا في المملكة المتحدة. ما المدة التي يتعين علي فيها المطالبة بالميراث في دبي؟ كنت أقرأ في صحيفة جلف نيوز أن قوانين بلد المتوفى وقت الوفاة يمكن تطبيقها فيما يتعلق بالوصية. هل هذا الأمر صحيح أم لا؟ أنا حقًا أبحث عن إجابة لهذين السؤالين أولاً. هل يمكن لأحد مساعدتي بذلك؟

عزيزتي المحامية سويتا سينغ، أنا من الهند وفي سبتمبر 2018 قمت بشراء شقة في أحد الفنادق. الفندق لم يكتمل وتأخر أكثر من سنة. لم يدفعوا أي تعويض بموجب العقد، ولا يتحدثون عنه. لقد دفعت أكثر من 80% بالتقسيط وأدفع بانتظام. الرجاء مساعدتي وإرشادي حول كيفية إلغاء الصفقة واسترداد أموالي بالكامل، أو أي طريقة أخرى تساعدني في استرداد استثماري. مع التحية،

عزيزي السائل، توفي والدي (مسلم) في جنوب أفريقيا. ترك وراءه 4 أطفال، زوجته (أمنا) وأمه. كانت لديه وصية في جنوب أفريقيا، وأنا (الابن الأكبر) منفذها. تنص الوصية على أنها تشمل جميع الممتلكات والأصول أينما كانت. لديه عقارات وأصول مختلفة في دولة الإمارات. أسئلتي هي: 1. هل وصيته قابلة للتنفيذ في الإمارات أم ستقسم الأموال حسب قوانين الشريعة الإسلامية؟ 2. ما هي المستندات المطلوبة لتوزيع تركته؟ 3. ما هي عملية التوزيع داخل دولة الإمارات؟

توفي ابني بشكل مأساوي في دبي وتم دفع راتبه إلى حسابه البنكي في الإمارات. تعيش ابنتي أيضًا في دبي ولديها حساب في نفس البنك. كيف يمكنني الوصول إلى حساب ابني من فضلك؟ أنا أعيش في المملكة المتحدة.

توفي عمي منذ أسبوعين في أحد المستشفيات الخاصة هنا في دبي. لقد أكملنا بالفعل كل ما يتعلق بإعادة جثته إلى الوطن بمساعدة صاحب العمل وتم إرسال رفاته بالفعل إلى وطننا الأسبوع الماضي. لقد اعتاد أن يمنحني حق الوصول إلى بطاقة الصراف الآلي الخاصة به من قبل وحاولت الوصول إليها قبل أيام قليلة فقط ووجدت أن هناك بعض المال المتبقي في حسابه المصرفي. أدرك أن لديه بعض القروض المصرفية المعلقة قبل وفاته، لذلك أخشى أن يكون هذا المبلغ هو سبب هذا المبلغ الكبير. لكوني الفرد الوحيد من عائلة عمي المتوفى، ماذا أفعل لأتأكد من أن المبلغ من مدخراته وليس من قروضه البنكية؟ في حال ثبوت أن المبلغ هو مدخراته الخاصة، فهل هناك فرصة لي للحصول على إذن للمطالبة بهذا المبلغ من البنك لاستخدامه من قبل عائلته؟ لديه زوجة و3 أطفال في وطنه. شكرًا جزيلًا مقدمًا.

Hi, good morning, I’m an Indian residing in the UAE and want to apply for a divorce. My husband and I have been living separately for more than 3 years, and he has been living in India since our separation. We are both Indians and Christians (non-Muslims). We have a son who is 8 years old now. Can you please let me know the divorce procedure if we want to proceed in the UAE, both with and without mutual consent? Additionally, please advise on how to proceed with custody, as my son currently resides with me. Thank you!

A company is registered in a free zone (Dubai South) and had 4 shareholders. But now one of them passed away and the successor is a very old lady, who is not cooperative and will not be able to sign any document at all (and she lives in another country). We have no idea who will be a successor after this old lady and these people will in fact never be interested to do anything with this company. The company is financed and managed by only one shareholder, who is willing to continue. What can be done in this scenario to keep this company and continue operations? How to transfer the shares of the deceased shareholder (buyout, shares transfer)? Is there any court procedure where if no one claims their rights after some time, the shares will automatically be transferred to the company itself or the third parties? Thank you. A.

Dear Sir/Madam, Time limit to execute a judgment. I won a court case about 5 years ago. I still did not register an execution lawsuit. What is the maximum permitted time limit between the verdict and registration of the related execution lawsuit?

Dear Respected Lawyers, Subject: Request for Legal Advice Regarding Unlawful Practices by a Debt Collection Agency I would greatly appreciate your advice and guidance regarding a troubling issue my colleague is facing with a collection agency. The company has been contacting the employer, urging them to ask my colleague to get in touch with them regarding a supposed liability. This claim is related to a 15-year-old closed dispute with a bank credit card, and the issue seems to stem from outdated and inaccurate information on the AECB report. Our main concerns are as follows: Unauthorized Access: The company is accessing her AECB report without her consent. She has never given permission for them to retrieve or view her personal financial information. How is it possible for a third-party agency to openly access and track AECB reports, especially for a dispute that was resolved 15 years ago?

I was evicted from my apartment after living there for five years. My landlord informed me a year in advance that the lease would not be renewed because he intended to sell the property. Prior to this, he attempted to impose a rent increase that was not compliant with RERA regulations, which I refused to accept. He then served me with an official Dubai Court eviction notice, citing the need to take back the property for sale. Five months after I moved out, I discovered the property was rented out at a much higher price. Upon further investigation, I found that the ownership was transferred as a "Gift" rather than a sale. This makes it seem like the eviction was only to raise the rent rather than a genuine need to sell. Do I have a valid case for wrongful eviction against my landlord? Also, under Dubai law, does transferring ownership as a "Gift" hold the same legal grounds as selling in justifying eviction?

Hello, My ex-wife has abused me in chat and called me the following: illiterate, beggar, and said that I don’t have [------]. She called me a bad parent and a bad son. Can I file a cyberbullying, defamation, or abuse case against her? What are my options?

Hi I'm an Irish citizen and a resident of the United Kingdom. I got investment fraud in Dubai. I invested money into a business with a Pakistani national guy in March 2024 via bank transfer into his business account. Now he's giving back the money which I invested in business after 9 months. He's preparing a letter from a local lawyer to kick me out of the business. I do not have any other option than to take out at least my money. But it's unfair to me that he used my money in business and took all the advantage. Some people say to me that if you claim money or take legal action against him, it will take too much time and I need to travel to Dubai to appear in court because it is a civil matter. But I'm not a resident. How can I follow the civil case there? That's why my partner knows that I can not do anything and this case keeps running long time and in the end nothing happens. But I'm thinking that I will submit a complaint through my embassy and I also have a solicitor in the United Kingdom.
