How do I remove my late father's name from his UAE trade licenses?

Q: Dear Lawyers, My father passed away in India and was a resident of the UAE, holding a Dubai visa at the time of his death. He held two LLC trade licenses under his name, with 4 partners. All partners are the wife and sons. What is the procedure to remove my father’s name from the trade license? I have the death certificate attested by the Indian Embassy in the UAE. Please advise!

Am I obligated to settle compensation for the rent difference after evicting a tenant at their request?

Q: Dear Lawyers, I served an eviction notice to the tenant at his own request for repossession of my property. Unfortunately, due to my medical condition, I had to rent my property to a new tenant. My former tenant is claiming compensation, which I am ready to settle, but I feel his claim is unfair. He is claiming the difference between the old rental amount he was paying and the new rental amount contracted by me with the new tenant for my property, in addition to the moving expenses. I believe it is only fair to pay the difference between the old rental amount and the new rental amount the former tenant is paying for the new property he has leased with his new landlord, plus the expenses he incurred for moving into his new property. Please advise which of the above amounts I need to settle!

How can I maintain a travel ban on an LLC manager in a labor case despite claims of independence?

Q: Dear Lawyers, A labor case has been in the execution phase for the past eight months. I have pursued various enforcement actions, including blocking bank accounts, placing inquiries and holds on properties, and blocking the traffic file. I’ve also requested inquiries and holds on trade licenses. However, the defendant did not respond. Eventually, I requested a travel ban on the manager, which the court approved. This prompted the defendant to argue that, as an LLC, the court cannot impose a travel ban on the manager, citing independence issues and similar arguments. Now, the court has asked me to respond. Could you advise me on how to argue to keep the travel ban in effect? The manager’s personal accountability as a representative of the LLC and the prolonged non-response from the company. Evidence showing that the defendant’s non-responsiveness justifies such measures to ensure enforcement. Legal precedents or arguments demonstrating that the travel ban is a legitimate enforcement action under similar circumstances.

Can I sue my landlord if he cuts off DEWA and forces me to leave before my non-Ejari contract ends?

Q: Dear Lawyers, I rented a studio on a monthly basis, and my rent included all utilities and bills, with a contract that isn’t Ejari. Now, the landlord has cut off the DEWA and is asking me to vacate the unit and take the rest of my rent three months before the contract expires. Is there any legal action I can take against him?

My landlord increased my rent more than RERA Index and refused my offer and deposit. What to do?

Q: Good morning, My landlord notified me 90 days before my contract’s end of a 15% rent increase, raising it from AED 55,000 to AED 63,250. However, according to the RERA index, the maximum increase should be 5%. I tried to negotiate, but they refused. On October 15, I made an offer and deposit of AED 57,250 (including the RERA-approved increase). The judge accepted it, but the landlord rejected it, claiming their other 1-bedroom units rent for AED 75,000. My contract expired on October 31, 2024. Recently, the landlord emailed saying I’m now staying illegally and will be charged AED 100 per day for not signing a new contract. Last week, I requested a new contract based on the RERA index, but they responded by refusing my offer and deposit, demanding full payment. My question: Should I be concerned, or should I let them pursue a case? Or just wait and see? Thank you for your assistance.

The landlord insists on increasing the rent more than RERA Index. What can I do?

Q: Hi everyone, I’m facing an issue with my rental situation and would appreciate any advice. I purchased a company in July that’s renting a shop space, and the tenancy contract (under the company’s name) is ending on November 22. The landlord is insisting on a 40% rent increase, even though the RERA Index clearly indicates a 0% increase for this area. I’ve informed the landlord that this increase isn’t in line with RERA regulations, requested a new contract, and asked him to come by to collect the cheques—but he’s been unresponsive. To protect our position, I filed an offer and deposit with the rental dispute center, but it was automatically closed because the landlord didn’t respond. My question is: what should I do next? Filing a case for renewal will cost 5% of the rent, which is a significant amount right now. Are there any alternatives to proceed without incurring that cost, or any other steps to ensure the landlord adheres to the regulated rental terms?

Who should submit a dispute to RERA/RDSC if the rent increase is unlawful—the landlord or tenant?

Q: Dear Lawyers, My Dubai landlord is proposing a 9.52% rent increase, which I believe is unlawful. The current rent falls within the RERA rental index range, and no increase is permitted according to the index. The landlord’s representative has been uncooperative in providing proof of a Power of Attorney (POA) or any justification for the proposed increase. Questions: 1. Whose responsibility is it to submit a dispute to RERA/RDSC if the proposed rent increase is unlawful—the landlord`s or the tenant`s? 2. What evidence is required from the landlord (or their representative) to legally justify a rent increase that exceeds what RERA allows? 3. If the Ejari is not renewed due to a dispute at RDSC, will utilities (e.g., DEWA) and services be affected for the tenant?

If my landlord is not responding to my emails and calls, how can I renew the contract?

Q: Hi, My landlord sent an email mentioning that the rent will be increased for next year; however, the new rent amount was not specified in the email. The email was sent in accordance with the 90-day notice requirement.

If my landlord is not responding to my emails and calls, how can I renew the contract? 2. When can I renew my contract if it’s expiring on February 4, 2025? 3. How many days or months in advance can I renew it? Kindly advise!

In the sale contract, it was mentioned that the house was rented; however, upon the sale, the owner had returned the deposit to the tenant, and the tenant had abandoned the property without informing me.

Is the tenant or the landlord at fault? 2. How can I pursue legal action against the landlord if he is liable? 3. What are the total fees (including all legal expenses) to pursue litigation? Thank you!
