Hello, My ID will expire on 14th May. The company is blocked. I want to change my status. How can I do this?

Sir, As per my contract period, they mentioned that if I leave the company before 1 year, I have to pay 5000 dirhams. But I have already completed more than 1 year and 3 months. The company has given me a warning letter saying my work performance is low, and if I continue like this, they will terminate me. They didn't mention any charges, but they mentioned in the letter a top penalty procedure. So I need to know whether I have to pay them any charges or not.

Hello, Can I go on vacation even though I have already resigned from my employer and my visa is not yet canceled?

Hello, Is it allowed for a company to terminate an employee because the employee refused to do work not stated in the contract?

Hello, I was driving my car when the police stopped me at one point on the road and told me that I was driving under the influence of alcohol. I tried hard to deny that because I had not actually consumed any alcoholic beverages that day or in the previous three days. However, a report was filed and a case was opened, but the alcohol test report came back negative. Will I be convicted despite that? Please answer me. It is urgent.

I am writing to seek your legal expertise and advice on a pressing issue concerning a property sale transaction that my brokerage company has facilitated. Here are the details: Our brokerage company represented the seller in a property sale where the property was sold with an existing rental agreement in place. As per the terms of the agreement, the rental balance was supposed to be given to the buyer, who is now the new owner of the property. In this transaction, our company is entitled to a 40% commission, and the buyer's brokerage company is entitled to 60%. However, the buyer's brokerage company, which has complete control over the buyer's funds, has transferred the entire 100% commission to their own account. They are currently withholding this commission, stating that they will release it once the rental balance is paid to the buyer. Unfortunately, we have lost contact with the buyer, as he has blocked the seller's agent, making it impossible for us to fulfill this condition.

سيدي العزيز لقد تقدمت بطلب للحصول على برامج Canada AIPP من إحدى وكالات الاستشارات في دبي في عام 2021، وأخبروني أن العملية ستستغرق عامًا واحدًا. والآن استغرقت أكثر من عامين. أخبروني أنهم تقدموا لي هذه السنوات ولكن لم أتلق أي رد من أي شركة، وعندما طلبت منهم إخباري بمكان تقديم الطلب، أخبروني أنه سري. الآن أخبرتهم بإيقاف العملية وسوف يعيدون لي أموالي ولكن سيكون المبلغ أقل بكثير وفقًا لهم. يرجى إخباري كيف يمكنني الحصول على أموالي حيث دفعت ما يقرب من 9000 درهم إماراتي أو كيف يمكنني المضي قدمًا بشكل قانوني.

مرحباً لقد عملت في شركة تحت كفيل محلي مع شريكين لمدة 6 سنوات وستنتهي تأشيرتي الشهر المقبل. ومع ذلك، أبلغتني شركتي أنها ستنقل تأشيرتي إلى شركتها الأخرى مع نفس المالك مع شريك جديد (بدون كفيل محلي). في هذه الحالة، ماذا علي أن أفعل؟ هل سيتم إضافة مكافأة نهاية الخدمة السابقة إلى تأشيرتي الجديدة أم يجب أن أحصل على مكافأة نهاية الخدمة وأعمل كموظف جديد؟ يرجى تقديم اقتراح.

مرحبًا، اشترينا شقة في يوليو. الشقة مؤجرة حتى نهاية نوفمبر مع المالك السابق الذي قدم لهم إشعار إخلاء العام الماضي لبيع المنزل. الآن يريدون تجديد العقد لكننا لا نريد التجديد لأننا نريد الانتقال إلى شقتنا للعيش فيها. هل يمكننا الانتقال إلى شقتنا ويجب على المستأجر الخروج؟ هل يمكن للمستأجر رفض الخروج؟

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.

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 Lawyers, My friend has been charged with a case of possession of a narcotic substance schedule 3 for personal use, on 1st March 2023. The quantity was very small, maybe 5 gm. The case is now in public prosecution under investigation, and he is currently on a travel ban as well. My question is as per the new law on drugs and as a first-time offense, what would be the verdict? Can he get a new visa and change jobs during this phase? How much time does it take to finish the case?
