Leaking ceiling from negligent neighbor: Legal options and seeking resolution
Hi,
Hope you can guide me!
We have a leaking ceiling in our apartment due to our neighbor above us who has failed to make proper repairs.
The ceiling is badly damaged, and the representative of the accused party does not want to commit to bearing the expenses for the repairs.
What legal action can we take?
They keep ignoring us, and Nakheel is not mediating our complaint.
What authority should we approach for this kind of dispute?
Also, how can I compel the representative to disclose their landlord's contact information so that we may forward our complaint to them?
Please assist us!
Dear questioner,
You can legally notify them through the notary public, providing a legal warning to quickly repair the damage and perform necessary maintenance.
In case of refusal, you can submit a maintenance quotation and file a lawsuit against them to claim compensation for the damages caused to your apartment.
It is necessary to make a police report or a municipal report of damages.
Please refer to the contract signed with them, whether it is an SPA or management contract (if any), in which you will find the terms, conditions, and liabilities of the parties.

Hi dear,
We prefer to start with a legal notice which we can help you with this part.
Please contact us by phone.
