5 متاح 5 • عرض الجميعالتشهير من قبل وكالة تحصيل لاسترداد الديون
س: سيدي العزيز / سيدتي العزيزة،
أنا مقيم في الإمارات. علي دين لأحد البنوك وتحاول وكالة التحصيل الخاصة بهم مطاردتي. أنا غير قادر على السداد بسبب مشاكلي المالية.
الآن يحاولون التشهير بي في شركتي الحالية ويكذبون على صاحب العمل في رسائل البريد الإلكتروني لإذلالي وتشويه سمعتي.
فهل يجوز لهم قانونًا أن يفعلوا ذلك؟

What can I do in case of threatening and defaming for a disputed debt?
Q: I am in Abu Dhabi. Someone was disputing about the money he says I owe him. On WhatsApp, I told him if you have a problem, you can complain or report that.
Then he started sending me messages saying that I was a liar and a scam. And that he will come to my residential building and tell everyone that I am a liar and scammer, and he will come to my apartment and take the money he claims it’s his.
He also made a racial comment about my home country (that this is UAE and not your home country where you can scam people). He also mentioned something bad about my family.
I reported this to the police with screenshots of the chat. What else can I do in this case of threatening and defaming?

مدى قانونية مضايقات وكالات التحصيل
س: مرحبًا،
أود أن أسأل ما إذا كان بإمكان شركة التمويل رفع قضية مدنية بمبلغ أقل من 5000 درهم إماراتي.
هل يحق لطرف ثالث تحصيل الأموال لشركة تمويل أخرى رغم أن الشركة مغلقة ومضايقة أي شخص حتى لو لم يكن على صاحب العمل أي مسؤولية تجاههم؟
أرجو النصيحة لأن الكثير من الناس يعانون نفسياً وذهنيًا بسبب سوء سلوكهم وأخطائهم.
شكرًا لك.

Can a collection agency file a case against a debtor in home country on behlaf of a UAE bank?
Q: Dear Lawyers,
I'm seeking your valuable advice as per the UAE Law for the below inquiry.
One of my close friends had taken a personal loan of AED 250k in the UAE and was paying EMI amounts regularly.
Later, he was terminated by his company due to some issues and returned to his home country. A debt collection agency contacts him every day and gives more threats even though he has agreed to pay back the amounts after getting a new job.
It has been 1 year and until now he did not get any good job and is unable to pay back the amount.
However, the debt collection agency contacts him every day at least 3 times and threatens him with a criminal case against him, and that they will send him to jail and many more things.
Now the inquiry is generally, if anyone is unable to pay back the outstanding EMI loan amount due to job loss, can the debt collection agency file a case against him or an arrest warrant, etc in their home country?
Can we make a case against the debt collection agency for their outrageous behavior?

Can I file a case against a bank for sharing private info with all staff for my credit card application?
Q: I have applied for a credit card with a well-known bank here in Dubai.
During the verification course from the bank, they sent my salary certificate to our company's info at an email address to which half of the staff have access.
I have been told by several members of my staff, that they received this email. I am the Deputy CEO of the company and obviously, this is not a light matter.
I have contacted the bank and they have offered me vouchers for AED 1000 and then 2000 but I want to press charges for a serious offence and go for punitive damage.
I know the latter is not a usual practice in the UAE, but I want to explore my options. I have also informed the Central Bank, but they say I must wait 30 days before proceeding.

I understand that if anyone wishes to resign without serving their full notice period, they are supposed to compensate the employer for the remaining time that they didn't serve the notice, also known as "notice Compensation".

Can I hold the delivery of goods to a buyer outside the UAE if he defaulted on payment?
I, as a UAE-based Seller, entered a sales agreement with a KSA-based Buyer. The Buyer defaulted on the LC payment, breaching the contract.
The goods are stuck at the port as they need original documents, which I am holding to recover the outstanding balance.
They later made a partial payment but now threaten to cash the PBG (UAE bank) I provided if don't release the document.
The contract mandates DIAC arbitration but lacks a governing law clause. I need advice on:
1. Which law applies to this dispute?
2. Where can I seek an injunction to prevent PBG encashment, given the Buyer’s bad faith and breach? Or should I send a letter to their bank with the brief above?
Kindly advise.

عرض الجميعI purchased a rented apartment in Abu Dhabi. Can I evict the tenant immediately if there is no Tawtheeq contact?
I recently purchased a rented apartment in Abu Dhabi and agreed to honor the existing lease. After the transfer, I discovered that the lease is not a Tawtheeq contract, meaning it is not officially registered.
Since I am not receiving rent (as it was a non-refundable arrangement with the seller), I prefer not to issue a new Tawtheeq. I also want to avoid a formal notice to vacate to prevent disputes, as I plan to move in.
However, I have already informed the tenant that I will not be renewing the lease. I need legal advice on the implications of proceeding without a Tawtheeq contract.
What are my risks, especially if the tenant refuses to move out?
What legal actions, if any, can the tenant take in this situation?

I was evicted from my apartment to be sold but it was gifted and rented at a higher price. What can I do?
I was evicted from my apartment after living there for five years. My landlord informed me a year in advance that the lease would not be renewed because he intended to sell the property.
Prior to this, he attempted to impose a rent increase that was not compliant with RERA regulations, which I refused to accept. He then served me with an official Dubai Court eviction notice, citing the need to take back the property for sale.
Five months after I moved out, I discovered the property was rented out at a much higher price. Upon further investigation, I found that the ownership was transferred as a "Gift" rather than a sale.
This makes it seem like the eviction was only to raise the rent rather than a genuine need to sell.
Do I have a valid case for wrongful eviction against my landlord?
Also, under Dubai law, does transferring ownership as a "Gift" hold the same legal grounds as selling in justifying eviction?

What to do if you get terminated and denied gratuity for a minor mistake?
My brother has been working for a company for 11 years. In the last 3 weeks, he had an incident/accident and scratched a plane since he only had 1 person to assist him as the company was not hiring enough people.
Senior staff like him are working more to train inexperienced new hires which adds to their workload working almost 12 hours/day including travel to DWC.
The pilot said it was aesthetic and could be painted over but a police investigation ensued. Last week 3 managers and HR talked him down as the investigation concluded.
He was terminated immediately with only this month's pay and his 11-year gratuity will not be given by the company. It was not gross negligence or malicious intent, he just didn’t have enough people to help him.
He owned up to the mistake and reported the incident within 24 hours. Can he fight for the gratuity?

If a bank has filed an execution cheques case through the Dubai Courts. Is a travel ban automatically applied?
A bank has filed an execution cheques case through the Dubai Courts due to nonpayment of a personal loan and credit card.
Is a travel ban automatically applied?
I looked on the Dubai Courts website, and it says the judge has issued a “reserved” order for my case.
Furthermore, when the bank emails, they threaten me with a travel ban. So I am assuming there is no travel ban issued (but I don’t know). I haven’t received any notice of a travel ban.
If there is a travel ban, how do I find out?
I have checked the Dubai police app, and there are no financial crimes against me.
Please advise if you know.
