Q: Hi ,

The bank collection agents contacted me few times but I couldn't reach an agreement with them as I am facing financial difficulties as a single parent for 2 kids currently not working.

إصدار شهادة بحث الحالة الجنائية لأغراض الهجرة إذا كانت هناك قضية محتملة
2
س: مرحبًا إيمان،
أنا ك. ر. أعيش حاليًا في دولة كندا. لقد عملت في دولة الإمارات (إمارة أبو ظبي، وإمارة عجمان) من 2013 إلى 2016.
أريد استخراج شهادة بحث الحالة الجنائية لأغراض الهجرة (للحصول على الإقامة الدائمة في كندا).
حاولت مرتين الحصول عليها عبر الإنترنت ولكنني لم أتمكن من ذلك. في عام 2016، اضطررت للعودة إلى سريلانكا بسبب الوضع الطبي لزوجتي (كانت حاملاً).
لقد تركت وظيفتي وغادرت دولة الإمارات دون إبلاغ صاحب العمل والبنوك ومالك الوحدة وما إلى ذلك ولم أعود مرة أخرى. لدي بطاقة هوية إماراتية منتهية الصلاحية.
يرجى تقديم المشورة.

الاستعلام عن قضية بعد مغادرة دبي دون سداد بطاقة الائتمان
0
س: كنت مقيمًا في دبي منذ حوالي 10 سنوات، وخلال ذلك الوقت كان علي بعض المستحقات في بطاقات ائتمان كنت أسددها ولكن ليس في كل شهر.
أريد تسوية الديون، لكن قبل البدء في التفاوض مع البنك، أود أن أعرف ما إذا كانت هناك قضية في الشرطة ضدي أم لا.
هل من الجيد محاولة التقدم بطلب للحصول على شهادة حسن سير وسلوك من الشرطة؟ إذا كان هناك أي قضية، فكيف ستبدو الشهادة؟
هل سأحصل على تفاصيل القضية في الشهادة أم لن احصل على شهادة من الأساس؟
أيضًا، خلال ذلك الوقت لم يكن لدي أي هوية إمارات. هل يمكنني التقدم حتى بدون هوية إمارات؟

إن إدارة الشؤون المالية للفرد أمر بالغ الأهمية، ويجب الأخذ في الاعتبار جميع الأحداث أثناء التقيد بالتزام مالي. سواء كان فقدان الوظيفة هو الذي أدى إلى الإخفاق المالي أو العكس، فيجب أن يكون المرء على دراية بالمسؤولية الشخصية التي لن تتلاشى من خلال دفع الغرامات في قضايا الشيكات المرتجعة. هناك نوعان رئيسيان من المسؤوليات، وهما المسؤولية الجنائية والمسؤولية المدنية. لكل منها أهميته الخاصة، وبالتالي، يجب التعامل مع كلا النوعين تبعًا لذلك.

عرض الجميعHow can I remove a travel ban or avoid arrest if I left the UAE with an unpaid rent case? 0
In 2018, I was involved in a dispute concerning unpaid rent related to a property managed by [-----] under the jurisdiction of the Land Department. [----] proceeded with legal action, resulting in a civil case and the imposition of a travel ban.
A civil case had been reported in an Arabic-language newspaper. Not being fluent in Arabic, I missed the Land Department hearing, and the obvious outcome included an order for payment and a travel ban, but I had already left the country by that time.
questions:
Statute of Limitations: After how many years does such a civil case expire under UAE law, thereby allowing me to legally return to Dubai without facing arrest or enforcement actions?
International Travel: Am I currently at risk of arrest or extradition if I travel to non-GCC countries like India or Pakistan?

How can my kids learn about their father's condition without contacting his family? 0
Good morning,
I have two kids. Their father is in critical care and is not able to communicate, and we have been divorced for more than seven years.
The other side of the family is not communicating with the kids about the father's whereabouts for them to visit him, and they have not been in touch with the kids for the past two weeks due to family issues that took place in court regarding guardianship of the kids.
How can I find a way for our kids to know what is going on with their father and his condition without reaching out to them, to avoid any further escalation?
My daughter has tried to call them, but there was no response.

Tenant demanding more than RDC verdict. Must I pay before the execution file is issued? 0
Good day,
I am a landlord, and my tenant filed a case with the RDC. The verdict was in his favor, and I am to pay the financial claim, which is the fees and expenses of the case.
The tenant asked for a specific amount, which is higher than the official receipt that the RDC provided. So, I have paid that exact amount directly to the tenant.
Naturally, the tenant asked for more. May I ask for guidance regarding the procedure?
It has not been 15 days since the verdict, so I have been told by the RDC that the case is not final, and I must wait for the execution file to determine the exact amount.
While I am happy to wait for that, my tenant has been threatening to open an execution file if I do not pay before the 15th day. She mentioned a travel ban as well. I feel lost and uncomfortable with the situation.
Please help me understand the procedure.

Hello,
I got a judgment from Dubai Court stating that the employer should do my settlement. It’s been years, but I still haven't received the payment in my account.
When I checked with Al Adheed Center, they said if the company is not active, it’s not possible to get the money.
However, it’s a group of companies, and a few branches are still running. Is there any chance to claim it, or can I appeal directly to the court?

عرض الجميعCan a debt agency access AECB reports without consent for a 15-year-old closed case? 0
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 to be sold but it was gifted and rented at a higher price. What can I do? 0
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?

I invested money in a business but my partner is removing me out from partnership. Can I pursue legal action? 0
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.

A gentleman insulted me severely over the phone during a delicate moment in my life when I was pregnant. He conveyed harsh messages through chat, causing me to feel sick, panicked, and scared.
Unfortunately, I lost my baby after this incident. I have reported the matter to the police and won the case, leading to the confiscation of his phone and imposition of a fine.

Can my company make my position redundant and hire somebody else after I was terminated? 1
My company terminated my employment because it was making the position I held redundant.
I was advised that in no way was this performance-related but purely a restructuring exercise.
However, within 1 month of leaving the company, they have externally recruited another person to fill my exact position, with the same job title, that they made redundant.
Whilst I believe that this is unethical behavior, could anyone tell me if this is legal within the UAE or should I lodge a complaint for unfair dismissal?

عرض الجميعCan I cancel my house sale contract without extra fees after personal plans changed? 2
Dear Lawyers,
I signed a Form F with a buyer for the sale of my house as we were planning to leave the country. The contract was signed about a month ago, but the handover is not until August.
Due to personal circumstances changing, we are no longer leaving Dubai and would like to cancel Form F.
The Form F contract stipulates that we have to pay the buyer 10% of the purchase value. The real estate agent is now claiming that we also have to pay the buyer's real estate commission and the conveyancing fee.
Our understanding is that the 10% penalty is the only penalty. Which is correct, and what are the next steps to dispute this?
Also, is there any way to dispute the 10% itself under the law due to personal circumstances changing?

Tenant received renewal notice, rejected proposed rent on renewal day. What next? 2
Hi,
We sent a renewal notice to our Dubai-based tenant 84 days before his contract renewal, with a 10% increase in rent.
The tenant neither agreed nor disagreed with the proposed rent and replied on the day of renewal that he wouldn't be paying the proposed rent.
Due to the argument, the landlord decided to reduce the rent, but the tenant has not yet renewed his contract. It has been 12 days since his contract expired.
Kindly suggest what could be done in this matter.

Respected Law Team Members, I am writing to seek genuine legal advice and guidance for our friend regarding an ongoing issue with her employer.
