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?

How long does Dubai court take to enforce child support if the father fled the UAE?

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 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!

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!

Should renewal be 9 or 12 months if an eviction notice was sent 3 months before expiry?

Q: Dear Lawyers, I sent an eviction notice 3 months before the expiry of the contract. During renewal, the tenant is asking for a 12-month contract, but I refused and only offered 9 months to complete the eviction notice period. Am I legally right, or should I sign the 12-month contract and file a case against him in September?

Is an MOU still binding after delays due to rain if it contains a force majeure clause?

Q: Dear Sir/Madam, I signed an MOU on March 22, expecting building completion in April. The MOU had an expiry date of April 22; however, due to rain on April 15, the completion was delayed until May 30, 2024. I received the BCC on June 17 from the developer and paid for the pre-title deed on the seller`s behalf to expedite the process. Now, I have completed the pre-approval and valuation, but the bank is asking for the handover notice to release the final cheque, which the seller is refusing to share. The seller claims the MOU has expired, but it includes a force majeure clause. So, is this MOU still binding or not?

Could my speeding violation result in jail time?

Q: Hi, Late at night, around 1 AM, I was speeding at 163 km/h in an 80 km/h zone in Khalifa City. I received a fine from the police and 23 black points. When I talked to the police, they told me I have to go to the traffic department for this issue. They also mentioned that the traffic department will initiate a case against me, potentially leading to prosecution. Will the case go to court? What charges will I face? What fines am I likely to pay? I heard that the court could also impose jail time for this offense. There was no accident or injury involved.

The employer agrees to withdraw the theft case, but the prosecutor refuses. What now?

Q: Dear Sir/Ma`am, I`m an accused in a theft case at my workstation. The amount stolen was 7000 AED. I surrendered, confessed, and agreed to pay the entire amount immediately to my employer. However, he still called the police and filed a case. At the same time, the police recovered the entire 7000 AED from me, but my boss was still not ready to drop the case. After a few days, he somehow agreed to an out-of-court settlement, demanding 10000 AED. We agreed to it and, in return, requested him to withdraw the case. We paid him the amount, and he got a letter from the typing center to withdraw the case. When he went to the police, they said the file had already been moved to the prosecutor. We went to the prosecutor, and they said the file had been moved to them, but they hadn`t registered the case in their system yet. Now the prosecutor doesn`t want to drop the case, as he wants legal action to be taken against me. Please assist with how to withdraw this case from the prosecutor. If it can`t be dropped, what actions might be imposed on me?

How do I resolve a year-long pending police complaint to lift the travel ban?

Q: Hello, I need help! A year ago, my previous employer filed a complaint at the police station accusing me of abuse. He did this because I had taken him to the labor court for not paying my salary. The labor court case was resolved, and I received my salary. However, the police complaint is still pending. Initially, the police took my statement and informed me to wait for a court summons. It has now been a year, and I have not received any summons. The case is still under police investigation. They have also informed me that there is a travel ban against me. How can I remove this case from the police station?
