Respected Advisors, I have been involved in a few criminal cases since 2017, but all of them were cleared by this year. I have obtained release letters for all the cases from the public prosecution office through an online portal. Recently, I also received my residence visa. After the visa process was completed, I applied for a PCC online. However, the request was rejected. I contacted the 901 office, and they advised me to visit the CID. I arranged for a power of attorney to be granted along with all the necessary documents to update the system. Twice I was told to come in person, but I am hesitant to do so because of my previous negative experience. Could someone please advise me whether I must go in person or if the person holding the power of attorney can handle the process? Thank you!

My father died recently. We are Muslim residents in Dubai. I have siblings including a minor who is 16 years old. My father has land and vehicles under his name. If I am applying for inheritance, does the minor need to have a share in ALL the properties and vehicles or can she be given a particular property/vehicle? Secondly, if we want the land to be in her name, and she manages it (like renting and bank), does it require an adult? Can the vehicles be transferred to someone else’s name without including her? Your guidance will be very much appreciated.

سيدي/سيدتي العزيز/ة، لقد فُصلتُ تعسفيًا (إنه أمر شخصي من جانبهم) ولم أحصل إلا على راتب شهرين بالإضافة إلى مكافأة نهاية الخدمة الإلزامية ومكافأة إشعار الفصل. أرغب في المطالبة بأكثر من شهرين بصفتي مديرًا تنفيذيًا كبيرًا. ما هو الحد الأقصى للمبلغ الذي يجب أن أطالب به، وهل سيكون هذا المبلغ معقولًا لأحصل عليه؟

تم رفع دعوى قضائية ضد موظف فشل في المشاركة في حدث دولي في المملكة العربية السعودية بسبب مشكلة عائلية نتج عنها حظر سفر، مما أدى بدوره إلى عدم توقيع صفقة بقيمة 100000 درهم إماراتي مما أدى إلى خسارة للشركة. - ما هي الأسباب القانونية التي تسمح لصاحب العمل بمقاضاة الموظف في هذا السيناريو؟ - هل يوفر قانون العمل الإماراتي أي إرشادات أو علاجات محددة لمثل هذه المواقف؟ - ما هي النتائج أو العلاجات المرجوة التي يمكن لصاحب العمل السعي إليها من خلال الإجراء القانوني؟ - هل هناك أي عواقب أو مسؤوليات قانونية محتملة لصاحب العمل في متابعة هذه القضية؟ - ما هي الوثائق والأدلة اللازمة لدعم قضية صاحب العمل؟

سيدي/سيدتي العزيزة، ما هي الكلفة لفتح ملف تنفيذ في الشارقة لقضية طلاق وكم من الوقت سيستغرق تنفيذ أمر المحكمة؟ أخبر زوجي المحكمة أنه لا يملك المال لدفع نفقتي ونفقة ابنتي لأنه يكسب مبلغًا أدنى لا يستطيع العيش إلا به. في هذه الحالة، ماذا يمكنني أن أفعل؟ لقد أغلق جميع حساباته المصرفية وأرسل الأموال إلى والديه في الهند. كما أخبرني أنه سيثبت في المحكمة أنه ليس لديه وظيفة أو مال، وبالتالي لا تستطيع المحكمة أو الشرطة فعل أي شيء له. هل يمكنك من فضلك أن توجهني بشأن ما يمكنني فعله في هذه الحالة؟ ليس لدي أي دليل على راتبه أو حسابه المصرفي لأنه لم يخبرني بأي شيء يتعلق بأموره المالية. في الواقع، كان يجبرني على مطالبة والديّ بإرسال الأموال إلينا. وبسبب عدم وجود دليل، وافقت المحكمة على رأيه ورفضت استئنافي. ليس لدي عمل وأعاني من مصاريف أساسية. هل يمكنني أن أطلب من المحكمة الاستفسار عن مكافأة نهاية الخدمة ونهاية الخدمة؟ أو هل يمكن للمحكمة أن تطلب منه تقديم إثبات للمال الذي حصل عليه من شركته، حيث كان يعمل لمدة 30 عامًا في نفس الشركة؟

We received a cheque which has now bounced. We have tried for over a month and a half now to get a new cheque from the person, and every day he says the next day. We need the money now. We have been to the police station, and they said they can not do anything as the reason the cheque bounced is "Insufficient funds." We have been to Al Barsha - Dubai Courts, and they said there is nothing they can do about it. We are not sure what we can do. We need the money asap to pay our kids' school fees, let alone all the interest we have lost.

Hello I joined my new company on February 26, 2025. Upon joining the new company, I asked HR if it was free to join the company, and she said yes. After working with them for 1 month, I experienced a salary delay, and I had to go to the office to ask why there was a delay in my salary. That is when the HR told me she deducted my whole salary to recover the transfer fee. Now my question is, who is supposed to pay for the transfer fee, the employee or the employer?

Hello, I want to inquire regarding my leave privileges. I am now 11 months in my company. How many leaves am I privileged to? Based on Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 regulating labour relations and its executive regulations, you are entitled to a paid weekly rest for not less than one day, as specified in the work contract or the work regulation. The Council of Ministers may increase the weekly rest day stipulated in this article. The Decree-Law and its executive regulations also stipulate that you are entitled to an annual leave with full pay as follows: - Thirty days for each year of your extended service. - Two days per month in respect of any employee with more than six months and less than one year of service. - Leave for parts of the last year of your service in case it is terminated before you use your annual leave balance. Now my question is: do I have 22 days I can use? Can someone explain to me in detail? Thank you!

I live in a townhouse with a shared wall with my neighbors. They are constantly doing construction work and constantly drilling on the shared wall. They said it will last for 2 months, working 6 days a week. It is driving us crazy, and there is no way to live this way, and I have to work from home. I am very stressed. What is the immediate solution, please?
