3 متاح 3 • عرض الجميعHow to contact the court to file a divorce after finishing the conciliation sessions? 
Q: Salam Aleykum,
Please, I request your help. I have a case in Dubai Court about a divorce request. I had all the Conciliation Sessions and I finished that on Feb 14.
The Conciliator asked me to request an appointment with the judge to explain to him my case. But supposedly the Court should send me an email with the document needed to request the appointment and I am still waiting for it until now.
So, where can I complain about it or ask where is the document?
I wrote many times in different emails in the Court but no one answered me. I am super worried because he told me in 2 months it will expire if I don’t request the appointment.
He won't answer my WhatsApp or the phone.

هل يجوز للزوجة أن تطلب من الزوج دفع نفقة لها ونفقة ابنتها بعد الخلع؟
س: لقد طلبت الخلع هرباً من زوج يسيء معاملتي. ومع ذلك، فهو مدين لي بنفقة لمدة 4 أشهر لي ولطفلي، قبل اتفاق الخلع.
هذا ينظر في قضية التنفيذ. يرفض الدفع قائلاً إن الخلع يعني أنني تنازلت عن جميع حقوقي، وهو ما يعني أيضًا المستحقات الماضية.
هل هذا صحيح؟

عرض الجميعHow to waive or reduce the penalty for my expired company license and cancel it?
Dear Lawyer
I hope this message finds you well.
I set up a business license in a free zone in 2023. Unfortunately, the license expired in September 2024, and due to being occupied with other matters, I was not aware of the penalties associated with the expiration.
I recently attempted to cancel the license but was informed that a significant penalty has accrued. When I inquired about cancelling my visa first, I was told that it’s not possible to proceed without addressing the license issue.
Could you please advise if there is any legal way to waive or reduce this penalty?
I would greatly appreciate your guidance on how to resolve this situation with minimal cost.

What notice to follow while resigning if there is contradiction, the company contract or MOHRE contract?
I'm trying to resign from my company and found out there's incorrect information between my employment contract, my government contract, and the employee handbook.
I was under the impression of having a week's notice period but I'm being told it's 3 months and I'm losing a month's worth of salary.
On top of that, it's showing a non-compete clause for the same industry. I'm trying to change companies in the same industry, how much of an issue is that?

Is the employee responsible for the expenses of changing his visa status from tourist to employment?
My friend is currently in the UAE on a visit visa and has received a job offer from a company.
However, the employer is asking him to pay for the visa status change from a visit/tourist visa to an employment visa since he is inside the country.
According to UAE labor law, who is responsible for covering these charges—the employee or the employer?

عرض الجميعI purchased a tour voucher from a holiday agency in Dubai and could not use due to a visa issue. Can I still claim it?
I purchased a tour voucher from a holiday agency in Dubai in 2023 worth AED 4239.00, but was not able to use it due to a visa problem.
I have constant email and communication through phone with them, and they informed me back then that my voucher will be available and has no expiration date that I can use anytime I want.
Now I wanted to use it, so I called them last Saturday, 31st May 2025, and they told me it has already expired due to the new policy.
Can I still claim and ask for my money back?

Landlord cashed my rent but won’t renew Ejari unless I accept a higher deposit. What should I do?
Hello,
I had a rental dispute case with my landlord. Based on the judgment, I paid the entire rent to the landlord, which the landlord has already cashed.
He is not issuing the Ejari because he wants to increase the security deposit by 10% every year, which I am not accepting. I have already given the 5% security deposit.
The landlord is not accepting it. He is forcing me to sign a new agreement, otherwise he will not renew the lease agreement.
Please let me know what I should do.

عرض الجميعIf the Public Prosecution appeals a not-guilty verdict with no new evidence, will it stay the same?
Hi Sir,
My husband had a judgment where he was found not guilty, as the misdemeanor court stated that it doubts the charges against the accused and found no conclusive evidence except the statements in the report files.
The court considered this invalid because there was no translator. After this, if the Public Prosecution appeals, will the verdict remain unchanged and be upheld if there is nothing more than this
Can you shed some light from your experience on this issue and say if the result will remain the same?

كيف يمكنني الاستعلام عن قضية إبعاد أمني ومحاولة العودة إلى الإمارات؟
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.
