Dear questioner

Sometimes a notification may not be receivable to your registered Email ID or phone number, however, it is crucial to attend the hearings.

You can attend the hearing by yourself, however, it would be better if you assign a lawyer to check all your legal updates and defend you in court in a professional manner.

If you need our assistance kindly share your Whatsapp number.

Dear Questioner,

Thank you for your inquiry.

I understand that you’ve found a case listed against you in the Dubai Courts system with an online hearing scheduled for next week, but you have not received any direct communication from the courts yet.

Here are the steps I recommend you take:

Verify Case Details: Please double-check the case number, hearing date, and other relevant details on the Al Adheed portal to ensure they correspond to your case.

If there is any uncertainty regarding the case or if the details do not match, I can assist you in verifying the information with the Dubai Courts.

Communication with Dubai Courts: Even though your contact information is updated, it’s a good idea to check your email inbox (including spam/junk folders) and phone messages.

If you still haven’t received any communication, I suggest you reach out directly to the Dubai Courts to confirm whether they have sent any official notifications.

Attendance at the Hearing: If the case details are accurate, and the hearing is indeed scheduled for you, it’s crucial to attend the hearing.

You can join the online hearing via the link provided on the Al Adheed platform. If for any reason you cannot attend, we should contact the court promptly to request a reschedule.

Legal Representation: Given that you are unaware of the specifics of the case, I would advise you to have legal representation at the hearing.

I am happy to assist you in preparing for the hearing and addressing any potential issues that may arise. If you prefer, I can also attend the hearing on your behalf.

Please let me know if you would like to proceed with my assistance, or if you need help in contacting the courts directly for clarification.

I am here to ensure that your case is handled efficiently and that all necessary steps are taken to protect your interests.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Best regards,

Mohammed Salah

Hi

Pursuant to your query you can attend the hearing and ask the judge for another hearing to check the file and reply.

You have the right also to hire a local lawyer to represent you in this case.

Call me on the phone to inform you of more details because maybe this hearing is with the employee in the court who will try to settle the issue between you and your wife before she goes to court.

Wishing you a pleasant day ahead,

It is possible that the court may have attempted to contact you through your registered contact details, but it is also possible that there may have been a mistake or delay in the notification process.

In any case, it is advisable to attend the hearing, either with a lawyer or by yourself. If you choose to attend by yourself, make sure to bring all relevant documents and evidence related to the case.

It is also recommended to contact the court beforehand to confirm the hearing date and time, and to inquire about the details of the case.

If you are unable to attend the hearing, you can request a postponement. However, it is important to note that failing to attend the hearing without a valid reason may result in a default judgment being issued against you.
