4
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
My tenancy contract will expire in 4 months. I was just informed that the apartment has been sold to a new landlord.
The new landlord wants to impose a 15% rent increase upon renewal, even though the RERA index calculated a 5% increase.
If there has been a transfer of ownership, can a new landlord impose any rent increase they wish? Or should they still comply with the RERA calculator?
Imposing a big jump in rent increase could mean that new landlords can indirectly "evict" tenants with very little notice if they can't afford the newly imposed rent.

هل يمكن لمالك العقار أن يرسل لي إشعار إخلاء لمجرد استئجار العقار بسعر أعلى؟


2
س: تحياتي،
لقد كنت أستأجر العقار الذي أعيش فيه منذ عام واحد الآن. تم تجديد العقد واتفقنا على زيادة قليلاً تتجاوز 5٪ المحددة في العقد.
قبل 3 أسابيع من التجديد، اتصل بي وكيل عقارات "لتنسيق تجديد العقد". اكتشفت لاحقًا أن هذا الوكيل عرض مستأجرًا آخر سيدفع حوالي 20 ألفًا إضافية لاستئجار العقار.
لكن لم يستطع مالك العقار إخلائي لأننا اتفقنا بالفعل على التجديد ويجب أن يعطيني إشعارًا لمدة عام واحد.
لقد جددنا العقد ووقعناه، وبعد أسبوعين، تلقيت إشعارًا بالإخلاء على بريدي الإلكتروني. عندما سألت مالك العقار عن ذلك، قال "أحتاج إلى إخلاء العقار حتى أتمكن من العيش فيه".
لديه حوالي 12 عقارًا يؤجره، وفجأة يريد العيش في هذا العقار المحدد حيث يعرض هذا "الوكيل" على المستأجرين إيجارًا أعلى.
هل من القانوني إصدار إشعار إخلاء حتى يتمكن من تحصيل إيجار أعلى؟
ماذا يمكنني أن أفعل الآن؟

ما الذي يجب فعله عند طلب المالك زيادة الإيجار بما يتجاوز مؤشر مؤسسة التنظيم العقاري؟



2
س: مرحبًا،
لدي انطباع بأن المالك سيرسل لي إشعارًا بالإخلاء لمدة 12 شهرًا إذا لم أقبل دفع زيادة الإيجار التي يطلبها. لا يُسمح بزيادة الإيجار لأن مؤشر الإيجار أقل مما أدفعه حاليًا.
في هذه الحالة، فهذا يعني أنني سأحتاج إلى الانتقال من الشقة خلال 12 شهرًا. هل هذا صحيح؟
في هذه الحالة، لا يمكنه إعادة تأجير شقته خلال عامين، أليس كذلك؟
مع خالص الشكر والتقدير،

I have two kids. Their father is in critical care and is not able to communicate, and we have been divorced for more than seven years.
The other side of the family is not communicating with the kids about the father's whereabouts for them to visit him, and they have not been in touch with the kids for the past two weeks due to family issues that took place in court regarding guardianship of the kids.

How to waive or reduce the penalty for my expired company license and cancel it? 0
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.

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.

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.

Respected Law Team Members, I am writing to seek genuine legal advice and guidance for our friend regarding an ongoing issue with her employer.
On 23rd May 2025, she received a termination notice via WhatsApp from her sponsor, which clearly states that she is required to complete her handover by 20th June 2025.
Since receiving the notice, however, her sponsor has been repeatedly contacting her via WhatsApp and phone calls, pressuring her to immediately return the company laptop and office cabinet keys, despite the agreed-upon handover date.
In addition, she has been verbally accusing my friend and making threatening remarks, creating a hostile environment, and causing her emotional distress.
To clarify her legal position, she contacted MOHRE, who advised her to reshare the termination notice to the lady employer about the handover date (20th June 2025) as she outlined in the (Cont-1)
