1
Q: I opened a bar business in RAK with a Lebanese partner. I financed it with AED 280,000 and he does the operation.
Unfortunately, I withdrew my partnership as I cannot provide more money as he asked. We agreed on making an agreement that I will cancel my partnership and he will pay me the said amount every month by AED 5,000.
The problem is that he didn't pay until now and its been 2 years. Every time I ask him he is saying no money yet, till he told me that we need to re-calculate the AED 280,000. He didn't meet me to re-calculate.
Then, he moved the bar from the rooftop to the 4th floor and it's much bigger. So, he is saying that the bar is a different one already and we are not talking about the same bar anymore.
I have an agreement signed, that if he gets a partner, he will pay me as well as if he sells the bar.
Do I have any chances of getting the money back?

خرق اتفاقية الشراكة التجارية
1
س: إنها اتفاقية شراكة تجارية.
قبل أن نبدأ، اتفقنا على أنني سأتحمل تمويل كل شيء حتى تجديد سيارته.
وأن المساهمة الوحيدة التي يمكنه القيام بها هي التسويق والتواصل مع العملاء. لقد جددت سيارته بكل أموالي. نظرًا لأننا لا نملك ترخيص في ذلك الوقت، وافقت على استخراج وثيقة التأمين باسم زوجته.
بعد ذلك، استخرجنا الترخيص وبدأنا العمل، لكن المبيعات لم تكن كافية، ولقد بذلت قصارى جهدي لتوفير كافة الاحتياجات المالية حتى استنفدت أموالي بالفعل.
لقد كانوا يقيمون في شقتي حيث أن ما عرضه مقابل قيمة السيارة كان 50/50 من الأسهم. لقد قدر القيمة وباع سيارته لي بسعر ثمانية آلاف درهم.
لقد مكثوا في شقتي لمدة أربعة أشهر دون دفع أي شيء. لذلك ما فعلته هو أنني دفعت فواتيرهم بقيمة ثمانية آلاف درهم مساوية لقيمة السيارة حتى تم سداد ديني بالكامل.
في الوقت الحالي، خرق هذا الرجل فجأة شراكته التجارية معي. كما أنه أخذ السيارة دون إعطائي على الأقل 50٪ من قيمتها.
ماذا يجب عليّ أن أفعل؟

اتخاذ الإجراءات ضد الشريك التجاري لتخلفه عن الوفاء بالتزاماته

3
س: نحن شريكان في شركة ذات مسؤولية محدودة للخدمات التقنية، تأسست منذ ستة أشهر.
لقد دفعت مبلغ من المال لشريكي من أجل تسوية قيمة القسط الخاص بشركة استشارات والذي لم يسدده بعد.
أيضًا، فهو لم يعد يستثمر في حصته، وبالمقارنة فإن حصتي التأسيسية أكبر من حصته.
لا يزال يستغل الرخصة التجارية ويتجاهلني (مختبئًا)، وهاتفه مغلق طيلة الوقت، ولا يتواصل معي إلا من خلال تطبيق الواتس آب ويختلق الأكاذيب.
نظرًا لأنه ليس أهلاً للثقة، أود المطالبة بالحصول على أموالي والتعويضات من شريكي وأحتاج إلى إنهاء شراكتنا.
اقترح لي حلاً.

How can I get money invested in a company after I got cheated by my partner?



1
Q: Hello.
I invested almost 60,000 dhs in a company to be a business partner in the future and get power of attorney.
But my business partner lied to me, he took all the money and now our business is almost closed.
I asked him to pay me all the money I gave to him (with papers he signed in) and he is not paying me. It has been like this for almost 2 years now!
Do I have any chance of getting my invested money back?
Thanks

My partner withholds profits and falsely claims ownership. What should I do?



1
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
I am currently facing a complex situation involving a business partnership gone sour. Two years ago, a friend and I embarked on a bed space business venture without obtaining a trade license.
While I covered the full investment, my friend took responsibility for managing the flat. We agreed to split the profits 50-50. However, over the past 8 months, he has been withholding profits and not contributing to utility payments, leaving me to bear the losses.
Despite my repeated requests for reimbursement, he consistently delays payment. Recently, he renewed the flat in his name and is claiming ownership.
Furthermore, he has replaced me with another partner and refuses to compensate me for my share of the goodwill amount, which amounts to approximately AED 30,000.
Additionally, he is spreading false accusations about me to mutual friends, tarnishing my reputation.
My question is, do I have any legal rights to claim from him? If so, what would be the appropriate legal procedure to pursue in this case?

I invested money in a business but my partner is removing me out from partnership. Can I pursue legal action?




0
Q: Hi
I'm an Irish citizen and a resident of the United Kingdom. I got investment fraud in Dubai. I invested money into a business with a Pakistani national guy in March 2024 via bank transfer into his business account.
Now he's giving back the money which I invested in business after 9 months. He's preparing a letter from a local lawyer to kick me out of the business. I do not have any other option than to take out at least my money.
But it's unfair to me that he used my money in business and took all the advantage.
Some people say to me that if you claim money or take legal action against him, it will take too much time and I need to travel to Dubai to appear in court because it is a civil matter. But I'm not a resident.
How can I follow the civil case there?
That's why my partner knows that I can not do anything and this case keeps running long time and in the end nothing happens. But I'm thinking that I will submit a complaint through my embassy and I also have a solicitor in the United Kingdom.

I paid for business registration but my partners failed to complete the process. How to claim money back?




0
Q: I seek your assistance with an ongoing legal issue.
I paid 18,000 AED to A. M. S. M. H. and M. I. for business registration, but they failed to complete the process, causing additional losses (14,011 AED govt fees + 1,100 AED visa charges).
I filed a complaint with Public Prosecution (Petition No: [---]), but the accused refused to cooperate.
I lack the legal knowledge and resources to pursue this case and cannot afford a private lawyer.
Kindly provide legal advice, assist in recovering my losses (18,000 AED + 1,100 AED + compensation), and guide me through the legal process.
Documents: Payment receipts, quotations, call recordings, witness statements, visa renewal receipts, and petition copy.
Thank you for your support.
Yours faithfully,

هل يمكن الزواج من إماراتي عسكري متقاعد عالمعاش بدون تقديم موافقه من جهه العمل؟ 0
السلام عليكم
هل يمكن الزواج من إماراتي عسكري متقاعد عالمعاش بدون تقديم موافقه من جهه العمل؟
وإذا تم الزواج فعلاً، هل يتاثر الزوج أو يتعاقب؟
وفي حال لم يقل الزوج مكان عمله، هل المأذون له طريقه ليعرف جهه العمل؟
هل يمكن الزواج عن بعد إذا كان الولي (الأخ) خارج الإمارات ولا يحمل هويه إماراتيه؟
وهل يجب فقط الشهود من نفس جنسيه الزوجة؟ هل هذا شرط ؟
واذا لم يتوفر، لا أستطيع تقديم طلب نهائي من شهود جنسيات أخرى مع العلم أن الزواج خارج المحكمة مع مأذون في عجمان.
مع العلم أن الزوج إماراتي متقاعد والزوجه أردنية (مطلقه مع شهادة طلاق صادرة من وزارة العدل بينونة كبرى) وشهادة وفاة ولي الأمر (والدي) من الإمارات، وفحص طبي من الإمارات.

كيف يمكنني الاستعلام عن قضية إبعاد أمني ومحاولة العودة إلى الإمارات؟ 0
السلام عليكم،
أود الاستفسار بشأن قضية إبعاد زوج خالتي من دولة الإمارات العربية المتحدة. زوج خالتي كان مقيماً في الإمارات وكان قد وُلد وترعرع هناك.
في عام 2013 تم إبعاده من الإمارات، وكان ذلك نتيجة لسياسات حكومية كانت تستهدف مجموعة من المقيمين في تلك الفترة، وهو لم يكن قد ارتكب أي مخالفة في ذلك الوقت وكان يُعتبر ضحية للسياسات المتبعة.
أرغب في معرفة الإجراءات التي يجب أن أتبعها حالياً من أجل رفع هذا الإبعاد وتمكينه من العودة إلى الإمارات.
أرجو أن توضح لي كيف يمكنني مساعدته في هذا الموضوع.
شكراً جزيلاً.

How to file a case against my former company for unpaid salary I was not on their visa? 0
Dear Legal Advice Middle East,
I hope you are well.
I am seeking legal advice regarding an unpaid salary issue with my former employer, [-----]2 LLC. I was employed with them from December 4, 2024, to January 7, 2025, on a monthly salary of 5,000 AED.
However, I only received a partial payment of 2,473 AED on February 24, 2025. The remaining 2,527 AED is still unpaid.
I submitted a complaint to MOHRE on March 2, 2025, but I am unable to proceed further through their official channels.
This is because I was working under the visa of my previous employer, [---] LLC, and not under [----]’s sponsorship.
As a result, I do not meet the criteria to file a labor complaint via the MOHRE app or hotline.
Given this situation, I would appreciate your guidance on how I can legally pursue the recovery of my remaining salary, considering the complications related to my visa status during the employment.
