3 متاح 3 • عرض الجميعSuggesting new contract and rent after an eviction notice - Is this normal?
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
My landlord recently gave me a mandatory legal notice for eviction with the intention to sell.
Ideally, I have to move out in a few months, and then one of the secretaries of my landlord mentioned that they want to talk to me in person (not officially in chat or email).
They mentioned that if I'm interested, I can stay with a new contract & new price.
Basically what they're saying is, since they've given me a notice, they want to treat me as a new tenant with a new price instead of sticking to the max 20% limit enforced by RERA for renewals.
He also mentioned that even after this, they would give me a court notice again and a new price. This sounded crazy to me because it feels like a loophole to get rid of this RERA renewal restriction and they plan to kick anyone after a year.
I'm planning to find a new place anyway because I need to secure a house for my family first before fighting wrongful eviction. But what would be my chances here? is this normal?

How can I vacate my tenant if the rental agreement ends before the eviction notice deadline?
Q: My Dubai tenant's rental agreement is ending by the end of September 2024 and the completion of 12 months of legally served Eviction Notice is the end of December 2024.
I have two questions:
(a) Can I send a rent increase notice 3 months before as the rent has increased as per the RERA rent calculator?
(b) The second question is, do I have to renew the rental agreement for 3 months (until December 2024) or not?
Thank you.

تطبيق إشعار الإخلاء الذي تم تسليمه للمستأجر قبل تجديد العقد
س: مرحبًا،
لقد قدمت للمستأجر إشعارًا بالإخلاء في 5 ديسمبر 2021 لمغادرة العقار.
كان من المقرر تجديد عقد إيجاره في 5 يناير 2022 وقمت بتجديده للفترة من 5 يناير 2022 إلى 6 ديسمبر 2022.
فهل من الجيد أن أعطيه إشعارًا بمدة 12 شهرًا لإخلاء العقار (إشعار بتاريخ 5 ديسمبر 2021)؟
أم هل أحتاج إلى الوصول إلى الفترة من 5 يناير 2021 إلى 5 يناير 2022؟

عرض الجميعA hair salon caused serious damage to my hair and scalp. What can I do to sue them?
I’m looking for legal advice regarding a hair salon incident that caused serious damage to my hair and scalp.
I visited a salon for a colouring treatment, during which two rounds of bleach, which is not what I booked in for, were given to me without proper approvals, and were applied back-to-back without a strand test or proper consultation.
As a result, I’ve been experiencing extreme hair breakage, daily hair loss, and ongoing scalp irritation. This has been especially distressing as I’m currently pregnant.
It’s now been over 20 days since the incident, and despite multiple polite follow-ups, the salon has ignored all communication.
I’m now exploring legal action to pursue compensation for the physical and emotional distress caused. I have full documentation, messages, and photos.
Any guidance on the best next steps or legal routes I can take would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

What can I do if the landlord has not been responding to renew the commercial lease contract and Ejari?
Good day.
For the last 3 years, the landlord's office has not responded to renew the contract, so I contacted RERA for renewal.
The office doesn't respond to emails related to renewal, even though I started sending emails and reminders 2 to 3 months before expiry, and I have no choice but to contact RERA and send a notice.
Once the renewal was processed by law, the landlord's office delayed in releasing the Ejari. Since it is a commercial property, my renewals are related to a staff visa, and I have to pay delay penalties.
The landlord's office staff tried to take advantage of the Emirati owner, and no direct meeting was fruitful.
What is the law that safeguards expats and sorts out issues without mutual compromise as they try to force their terms to be acceptable by law and not supported by any documentation?

My wife got her maternity leave after she gave birth prematurely. Can her company pay her only half a salary?
My wife was pregnant and gave birth in the first week of her seventh month.
The company she works for refused to give her leave when she requested it before giving birth, claiming that work required it and that she was still in her sixth month.
Now the company she works for is refusing to pay her full salary and is offering to pay only half her salary.
Do they have the right to do this?

We won the case with the RDC to evict the tenant. What happens after waiting the cooling period?
We won the case with the RDC that the tenant has to evict the property. We are told there is a cooling period before they say the date he has to leave.
How long is the cooling period he can appeal and then what happens next if he appeals and if he doesn't?
He was served the one-year notice and then refused to leave, hence the case we raised with RDC and won.

Can I sue overseas app developers for misconduct and website deletion?
Hello,
I want to create a legal case against my mobile app developers who sabotaged my business and mobile apps, failed to deliver a good product, and, despite that, had the audacity to ask for a bonus.
When I refused, they deleted my websites twice (two different projects and sites, with months between each incident). I want to pursue legal action with someone experienced in technology-related cases. The developers are freelancers hired via an online marketplace for freelancers (Upwork).
Everything is legally documented, including WhatsApp messages clearly showing evidence of their sabotage, as well as some logs from GoDaddy related to the web and app development.
Thank you!
