Are WhatsApp messages and bank receipts valid evidence against a scammer friend?

Q: Hello! I got scammed by my friend. She asked me to give her money, promising to return it, but when I asked for my money, she refused to give it back. There’s no contact between us except for WhatsApp messages, and I transferred the money to her via bank (I have the bank receipts). A few days later, I discovered that she scams many people like this, including her colleagues. She claims that she’s broke but uses this money in stock trading. Everyone is afraid to come forward because they don’t want to spend money on a case they believe they will never win. People around me told me that without a written agreement, I can’t go to court because I will definitely lose. They said, “You don’t have any solid evidence.” However, I have WhatsApp messages and know three people whom she scammed and took thousands from. What do you advise me to do? Should I go to court, or should I let it go because I’ll never win?

A new owner wants to increase the rent beyond RERA guidelines. What should I do?

Q: As`salaam Alaikum, Good Morning! I live in Dubai and have rented an apartment since November 14, 2022, which I renewed on November 13, 2023, for a year at an amount of 41,800 AED (4 cheques). Three to four months ago, the owner sold the apartment to a new person, and I had to change 2 payment cheques to the name of the new owner, one of which has already been encashed. Now, as the renewal date (November 13) approaches, the new owner is asking for a rent increase of 5,000 AED. I live in Dubai Silicon Oasis, and according to the RERA rental index, the maximum rent increase is 2,090 AED, which I informed the new owner. However, the new owner insists that, according to RERA, they can increase the rent by 5,000 AED. I have researched extensively but found no information indicating that a new owner can increase the rent by this amount. Could you please clarify if the new owner can increase the rent by 5,000 AED? How should I proceed if the new owner goes against RERA guidelines?

Can I block a new Ejari registration to prevent the landlord from re-renting the property?

Q: Dear Lawyers, What are my rights in terms of eviction? My landlord tried to increase my rent by 20% (per the RERA system, they were entitled to zero increase). We offered inflation as a response (all done via email). After they accused us of being cheap and we reminded them that the system indicated no increase was applicable, they issued us an eviction notice for "family use." We have since moved out, but now they are saying they will be selling the property and are providing us with a long list of maintenance items they want to withhold from the deposit (replacing water heaters, roof tiles, wheels on sliding doors), all of which were functioning properly during the nearly 3 years we lived in the house. We suspect that now we are out, they will refuse to refund the deposit and will rent the house out again. I have heard you can block the registration of a new Ejari for rental. What is the process for this, and do I have any other rights based on the above situation? Thanks!

Can I return to Dubai by paying only the court fine for a 2016 debt case?

Q: Dear Sir, I hope this message finds you well! I am writing to seek your advice regarding a debt case filed in 2016 in the UAE. The debt amounts to approximately 45,000 AED (20,000 AED cheque amount and 25,000 AED credit card amount). The associated interest has now possibly exceeded 150,000 AED. I have recently secured a job in Dubai and am eager to return; however, I am currently unable to pay the full debt amount. I am aware of a court fine of 5,000 AED. I would like to understand if there is any possibility of returning to Dubai by paying only this court fine and lawyer fee. Could you please advise on any available legal avenues or procedures that may allow me to resolve this matter and return to Dubai under these circumstances? Your guidance on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and assistance! Best Regards,

Is the RERA rental index calculator applicable to hotel apartments?

Q: Dear All, I currently have an annual rent contract with a hotel apartment in Al Barsha, Dubai. I have a separate Ejari and pay my unit`s DEWA bills. My current yearly rent is the same as the rent advertised for new units in the same building. However, my contract renewal is due in three months, and the building management has informed me that a 10% increase in rent will be applied if I wish to renew. According to the RERA rental index calculator for the Al Barsha area, my current annual rent is already higher than the average rent, so no increase in rent is permissible. The building management has stated that they don`t fall under the RERA rental index because they`re hotel apartments. I wish to verify whether they fall under RERA rent index guidelines or not. Please advise. I am willing to open a rental dispute case and seek legal help, but I need to check if it will be valid. Thank you!

Can I file a complaint against my husband for his affair and child with another woman?

Q: Good afternoon, I am reaching out for some help as I am in a very distressing situation. My husband and I (both Hindus) moved to Dubai in 2019 from the UK. In 2021, he started having an affair with his work colleague (I cannot confirm her religion as she is from Lebanon) while being married to me. We had to leave Dubai as my husband`s project finished, and we moved back to London at separate times. However, the affair continued while I was alone in the UK. Now they are living together in Dubai, he is still married to me, but recently they had a baby together. To the best of my knowledge, they are unmarried. As the affair started in Dubai and is still continuing, now with a child involved, do I have enough grounds to file a complaint? I have proof of their affair and the baby. My husband has completely neglected me, disrespected the marriage, and put me through emotional abuse and distress. Your advice and suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Protecting doctors from being recorded by patients' relatives without permission

Q: Good morning, I`m a doctor working in a clinic in Dubai. Lately, I`ve been facing the same issue with patients and their relatives. They take out a camera (relatives) and start recording videos of me when I`m checking or explaining to the patient, or sometimes they call someone and keep the line open (not even on speaker) so the relative can listen to what I explain to the patient. In those moments, when I realize what they`re doing, I immediately stop them and ask them to delete/remove it, etc. Some patients act offended even when I tell them they shouldn`t do this, they can`t. Is there any law that protects doctors, or in this case, myself from these kinds of actions? Thanks!

Can I request an arrest warrant for a manager to force payment in the execution?

Q: Dear Lawyers, Can you request an arrest warrant for a manager to force payment in the execution? I have won a labor case against my company in the appeal court for non-payment of dues. I have also filed for execution. Can I get some clarity on what happens once the execution is filed? It has been more than 3 weeks since it was filed. I was told I can file for the arrest of the manager. However, I’m not clear on what happens next. I would highly appreciate a response.

The applicability of the existing contract between the previous owner and tenant to the new owner

Q: Hello, I am buying an apartment to live in. The only problem is that the apartment is currently rented, and the tenant`s contract will end at the end of November. We talked with her, and she is willing to leave earlier. The real estate agent just sent me the contract between the current owner and her, which states that: "The landlord has to submit 60 days` written notice prior to the end of the contract to the tenant to inform them of any changes in the rent or terms and conditions (including vacating notice) of the tenancy contract." So, if I buy this apartment, will the rules stated in the contract between them apply to me as well? In the draft of Contract F, we also wrote that upon the completion of the transfer, the seller undertakes to send a notice directly to the tenant, in accordance with Clause 4.3 of the tenancy agreement, providing a minimum of 60 days` notice. Per Clause 4.3, the tenant is expected to agree to vacate the unit. Could this be enough? Thank you!
