Are employers required to pay redundancy compensation for terminations due to restructuring?

Q: Hello, A company with entities and employees in the UAE (specifically in Dubai Mainland and JAFZA) terminates employees due to company restructuring initiated for business convenience, and not due to insolvency, financial distress, or bankruptcy. I understand that, under UAE labour law, the following payments are typically due: - End-of-service gratuity (in accordance with UAE Labour Law and/or JAFZA regulations); - Payment for any accrued but unused leave; - Compensation for the notice period, if waived; and - Any outstanding contractual entitlements or dues. The main question is as follows: In the context of restructuring-based terminations, is there any legal obligation, or prevailing legal or customary practice, to pay a separate “redundancy payment” or severance beyond the items listed above? I would appreciate it if you could clarify this with reference to applicable UAE Labour Law, Executive Regulations, Ministerial Resolutions, and JAFZA-specific employment regulations, where relevant.

Can declaring bankruptcy protect civil company partners from rent-related travel bans?

Q: Bankruptcy of Civil Company in Dubai – Impact on Partners and Landlord Execution Case I am a partner in a civil company in Dubai that has accumulated rental dues of over 1 million. The landlord has obtained a judgment and filed an execution case that includes travel bans, arrest orders, and licence freezes against the company and its partners. I want to understand the legal and practical implications of initiating bankruptcy proceedings for the civil company under UAE law: Can a civil company file for bankruptcy in the UAE, or must the partners do so individually? What is the impact on existing execution cases—the one filed by the landlord to recover unpaid rent? Will travel bans and arrest warrants issued against partners be lifted automatically upon filing or approval of bankruptcy? Is bankruptcy advisable in cases where the only major creditor is the landlord pursuing rent recovery? Are all partners jointly and severally liable even after bankruptcy is filed?

What can you do if the bank filed a case against despite paying the loan by insurance after losing job?

Q: Hello Sir, My friend had a large personal loan and paid installments for 1.5 years before losing his job. A criminal case was filed in 2019, but he was cleared with a fine as the judge accepted that job loss insurance covered the loan. Funds were credited (shown in the statement & SMS), and customer service confirmed twice that the loan was cleared. He also paid AED 10K+ interest for the insurance. A year later, a cheque case was filed by a debt company and bank—he won with the same documents. Now, in Jan 2025, the bank filed a commercial case. The court appointed an expert, but the expert ignored his evidence. he showed that a key page of the contract (stating job loss insurance) was missing from the bank’s submission. The bank told the expert the credited amount was a “loan write-off,” but gave no proof. The expert never investigated his findings. I need advice on whether this verdict can be appealed and whether it’s worth pursuing further. My friend is in India now

How can I remove overstay fines so that my new employer can issue my visa?

Q: I am writing to seek your legal advice regarding a complex immigration issue involving a person currently overstaying in Abu Dhabi. His visa has expired, and although he received a job offer from a company in January 2025, the new visa process has not moved forward due to outstanding fines. To resolve the issue, he applied to the court in November 2024 to request a reduction in the overstay fine. He received a notification/link in January 2025 to visit immigration, but unfortunately, he could not attend due to serious health issues related to uric acid, which left him unable to walk. Additionally, he was unable to seek medical help due to the lack of health insurance and severe financial difficulties. He is now in a position where he wants to regularize his status in the UAE, clear any pending issues, and find a job to support his family. We kindly request your guidance. We would greatly appreciate your support in helping to resolve this matter in the best possible way. Thank you
