Needed to know if I am eligible to file for mutual divorce as an Indian expat living in Dubai and holding an Indian passport and also have Canadian PR.

Hello, I submitted an offer and deposit through the trustee office, but the owner rejected it. What is the next step? They sent an email notification stating that if not renewed within the contract's end time, 500 AED will be deducted for each additional day of stay.

I am seeking urgent guidance regarding my current visa status in the UAE. I was previously employed by a company that has now shut down, but my visa is still under that company. During my tenure, I held Power of Attorney (POA) for all financial matters. However, after a cheque issued by the company bounced, the owner revoked my POA without my knowledge. The company officially closed last year, and the owner (a lady) has been missing since the case emerged. No one from the company is responding, and I am currently stuck in Dubai due to a travel ban imposed on me related to this case. I need clarification on the following points: How can I cancel my existing visa under this closed company? Will I be able to obtain a new visa under another company despite the travel ban? Are there any legal blocks or restrictions affecting my visa or employment options? What legal steps can I take to resolve this situation? I would appreciate your guidance on the next steps and any possible solutions.

I own a property in Dubai and we issued a 90-day notice to the tenant to advise of the rent increase. The tenant accepted and confirmed they would be renewing the tenancy agreement. Before they signed the new tenancy agreement they moved out without giving any notice. What are my rights in this scenario?

Dear Lawyers, If I want to close a cheque execution case that I opened against someone, will my fees be refunded to me?

Dear Lawyers, I am a 50% partner in a company. I had given a 2M AED loan to the company about 10 years ago. There are expert reports and bank records to prove the loan. The company does not have any bank balances or assets. Should I start a lawsuit against the company and demand 2M AED, or should I start a lawsuit against the other 50% partner and demand 1M AED? One benefit of suing the company is that I can obtain an acknowledgment of debt, and later in an execution case, I can issue a certificate of solvency to have the other partner arrested. However, suing the other 50% partner directly would include their name in the executive writ. Please guide me! (I believe all necessary legal information is provided here. If something is missing, I can provide additional details here.)

Dear Sir/Madam, I want to withdraw a case against someone who harassed me. She has now been arrested and held at the police station for 4 days. How can I withdraw the case so she can be released?

Dear Lawyers, I was caught drinking and driving (no accident). They held me in prison for one day, then I signed some papers and they released me. They also gave me a vehicle impound paper and asked me to come on Monday with my car registration and license. Do you have any information on what will happen next?
