Hello, If I am to evict my tenant at the end of the tenancy (property in Abu Dhabi), can I send the tenant an email (registered in Tawtheeq), or does the notice have to be through the notary public or registered mail? Do I need to give a reason for non-renewal?

Hello, I recently had an illegal abortion, which landed me in the hospital and involved the Dubai Police. My spouse's and my visa were placed on a ban, and today the prosecution office called me for an appointment. Will I get jailed?

Hi Sir, I am S. and I am facing a one-year labour ban (as per my knowledge, and the same is mentioned in the cancellation paper too). Now I have a new offer with [-----] company in a free zone, but things were not processed because of this ban. They asked me for the immigration clearance. How can I clear this? My previous contract was under a limited term, so even the salary basis is not helping me. From other sites, I came to know it is possible, but I still have no idea how. Can you suggest a solution?

Due to security reasons, my UAE visa was rejected. What do I do?

I am writing to raise a concern regarding the denial of a No Objection Certificate (NOC) by [----] School, Abu Dhabi, where I am currently employed as a Humanities Teacher. Although the school has officially discontinued my contract effective July 7, 2025, and I have not submitted a resignation, they are now refusing to issue an NOC. This is preventing me from accepting an opportunity with another charter school and is obstructing my right to secure alternate employment within the sector. As per my understanding from ADEK and MoHRE guidelines, an NOC cannot be denied when: - There is no non-compete clause in the contract. - The employee has not breached any contractual obligations, and - The termination was employer-initiated without a valid cause. I kindly request your guidance and support in addressing this issue so I may proceed with my job application process without unnecessary obstruction. Sincerely, N.

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?

I got an offer letter from Al-Haldin Gulf Construction & Petroleum LLC. Can you please advise about the company?

Hello, I have a tenant who is always late with their payment. Their renewal was supposed to be last December 2023. Currently, they have not signed any new contract, provided any new cheques, and have stayed for three months from December until now without paying rent. Additionally, I just discovered that they have sublet the apartment with partitions, which is clearly stated as not allowed in the old contract. Please let me know what should I do legally!

Dear Concern, How long will it take to receive the cancellation paper from my previous employer? My last working day at my current company will be on April 7, 2024.

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.
