Hi there, I have a labor case that has been ruled in my favor. I filed an execution case & the employer paid the outstanding balance to the court. I requested disbursement and this has been accepted. I have given the court my IBAN & account info. How long does disbursement take? Thanks

Dear Sir/Madam, I just received a final labor judgment. Is there a time frame within which I must start the execution file? And how many days do I have after the verdict date to start the execution file? Finally, please provide a quote for managing the execution process from start to finish.

Dear Team, I have an issue with my credit card, which was issued in 2013 and I used the same till 2018, all the payments had done on time. Unfortunately, last time in 2018, I was troubled by a financial crisis. Due to the same, I had some amount pending on my credit card, and in 2018, I went to my home country as I lost my job. This year, two months back, I came back to UAE. Now the bank team is asking for a huge amount for the settlement. Could you please advise me on how to close this case with the fine by the court?

I am a doctor by profession, and my contract with my company was valid till June 2023. Last year in September 2022, I canceled my company visa to apply for Golden Visa. After stamping my Golden Visa, my company didn't provide me with a new contract. My question is can I continue working without a new contract? Do I have any rights or claim of my unpaid salaries from the court in such a scenario?

Hi, I bought a flat in April in Dubai with my husband. The flat has a tenant with a rental contract from the previous owner. The tenancy contract expires in June. The tenant has previously committed to leave and now wants to stay. 1. Can we force the tenant to leave as per previous confirmations? 2. If we can't make the tenant leave, can we modify the contract (rent, number of cheques, etc) because we did not sign the original contract?

Dear Sir/Madam, I work as a stockbroker at a company, but I want to quit because it is not a good job. I have been working there for over four months. If I ask to leave, the company demands 5000 AED and insists that I complete six months before they agree to my resignation, otherwise, they will ask for the money. What should I do?

My landlord was asking for an unjustified rent increase of 9K, while the RERA calculator showed 3K. He was threatening to go through the Rent Valuation process, however, he only gave me a notice period of 83 days. According to Dubai Decree No 43 of 2013 and Law No 33 of 2008, landlords are required to provide a 90-day notice period before making any changes to the rental contract, including increasing the rent amount. Failure to comply with this notice period entitles the tenant to refuse the rent increase. As the current contract is coming to an end by the end of next week, I have made several attempts to reach out to my landlord and his real estate agent to reiterate my interest in extending the contract and collecting the rental cheques at the old prices. Also, I kindly requested that they provide me with the contract as soon as possible. Unfortunately, I have not received any response thus far, and considering that this week is a holiday week, I do not know what to do. Sincerely,

Dear Sir/Madam, If an employee is still on probation period, can the employer terminate the contract with 14 days' notice even if the employment contract states 30 days' notice? The company is under MOHRE.

Dear Sir/Madam, I reside in a Dubai community, and my tenancy renewal is approximately 95 days away. The landlord is proposing a 15% rent increase, primarily based on rents listed on propertyfinder.ae, claiming that my current rent is 25% below market rates. However, the RERA Rental Index indicates "no increase in the rental value" as my rent is at the top of the quoted range, prompting me to reject the proposed increase. The real estate broker he hired at the time of my move-in recently contacted me, serving as an intermediary, mentioning that he would conduct a DLD valuation, likely resulting in a higher value. However, he is attempting to negotiate first, considering the cost of around 2500 AED. If we were to dispute, is the RERA Index Calculator the sole authoritative source for determining rent increases? Additionally, if the DLD valuation is accepted, what is the potential maximum increase?

Hello, I have a commercial execution case for the recovery of payments. I sent a notification to the local owner (100% ownership of the LLC), but I see that the company has closed its office and its license has expired. How can the courts get the money ordered in the judgment? Thank you!

طاب يومك، علي نزاعات إيجارية وحصلت على خطة تسوية منذ 8 أشهر. لكنني لم أدفع التسوية لأنه في لحظة التقدم بطلب للحصول على خطة التسوية، كان لدي عرض عمل وخسرته بسبب منع السفر ولم أتمكن من معالجة التأشيرة. علي قضية شخصية أخرى لدى الشرطة حيث قمت بالفعل بدفع مبلغ 18000 وكانت المطالبة 40000 درهم. والآن بعد أن لم التوقف عن الدفع، رفع المدعي القضية مرة أخرى. لدي الآن خطاب عرض آخر وأريد الحصول على شهادة مخالصة خلال 48 ساعة، وإلا فقد أفقد هذه الوظيفة أيضًا. برجاء تقديم النصيحة

اشتريت سيارة جديدة من تاجر سيارات [---] وبعد 5 دقائق من استخدام السيارة، ظهر تنبيه. وبعد أقل من 24 ساعة أبلغت البائعين بالمشكلة. بعد جدال معهم حول هذا الموضوع، قمت أخيرًا بإحضار السيارة إلى الصيانة في شركتهم وأكدوا أن الجزء يحتاج إلى تغيير كامل. أخبرتهم أنني لا أستطيع قبول سيارة معيبة والمطالبة باسترداد الأموال أو بمركبة أخرى. حتى الآن لم يكونوا على قدر من التعاون.

سيدي العزيز / سيدتي العزيزة، هناك قضية ضدي في محكمة تجارية ذات اختصاص كامل. آسف إذا كان هناك خطأ في هذا. لم أشارك في القضية، وبناءً على نصيحة محاميي في المملكة المتحدة، لم يتم تمثيلي هناك في دبي. عند التحقق من البوابة، تقول إنه تم التوصل إلى حكم بالأمس، لكن لا يمكنني رؤية المزيد من التفاصيل. لذلك أسئلتي هي: 1) هل تصدر الأحكام خلف أبواب مغلقة أم أمام المحامين؟ (المدعون لديهم محامون) 2) كم من الوقت يستغرق عادة حتى يصبح الحكم علنيًا ولكي أرى نتيجة القضية؟ الشيء الوحيد الذي يُقال على الإنترنت هو كلمة "تم الحكم".

مرحبًا، لقد تم ترحيلي من الإمارات بسبب عدم اللياقة الطبية، ولكن عندما وصلت إلى بلدي، أجريت عدة فحوصات طبية ولكن كل شيء على ما يرام؛ فيروس نقص المناعة البشرية سلبي، لا يوجد التهاب الكبد B، الخ. لا أعلم هل كان هناك خطأ أو سوء حظ بالنسبة لي. أتساءل عما إذا كان بإمكانهم السماح لي بالعودة إلى دبي.

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!

Hello, What countersuit can I file against an employer who filed a false absconding case against an employee?

Hello, My rent cheque was bounced, and my landlord filed a case against me in Sharjah Court. I received a fine of 2,000 AED, which was later reduced to 1,000 AED upon appeal. Does this case count as a criminal conviction under UAE law, or was it handled as a civil matter? If I apply for a U.S. visa, will I need to submit court records under the requirement for applicants with past convictions?

Hello, Good afternoon! Can somebody tell me what happens if someone went on vacation and didn’t come back in one month? What penalties will they face if they want to come back after 1 year or after some months and not to the same company?

The bank filed a case against me using security cheques and executed a travel ban from Dubai Courts.

My company changed the boss, but the company name is still the same. Is there any way I can't get all my benefits for 6 years?
