Hi My husband is working in his uncle’s company in Dubai with a salary of AED 8,000 monthly. I am not earning. During the 12th board, they told us to go to India, but we said we did not want to go. Before, one time we went, so my husband’s uncle told him not to pay the rent, saying once they come to the road, they will go to India. My husband kept on saying he would pay the rent. One day we came to the road for not paying rent, and we stayed the whole night in the car, then went to a hotel. After that, the uncle’s family took us to their house to talk. The kids did not want to go to their house because, for the last four years, they have threatened to cancel our visas. So they stood on the road waiting for me and told me that if I didn’t want to go to India, then he would pay rent only for one year, and other than that, I should not ask him for anything. He told me to write and sign that everything else I have to handle. I refused, and the uncle was yelling at me. I came out and waited for my husband for a long time, but he did not come, so we went to a hotel. Now it has been 8 months, he is not giving any money for our expenses, and he took my savings of 25,000 AED by cheating.

Good day I am involved in a police investigation due to an accident that happened at work. I was not on the site; however, because I am the region manager, I am automatically involved in the case. I potentially got an opportunity to work for a different company. My question is, can I change jobs while the investigation is still ongoing?

How much will it cost for a power of attorney in Dubai for any bank transactions or financial case to handle? Both parties have a UAE residence visa.  

I signed a job offer in my contract, but I was given another, and I worked for one and a half years without any complaints. However, I have been given an offer letter from another company, and my former company is insisting that I should pay compensation. Is it legal?

I am seeking legal advice regarding a chargeback/fraud issue initiated by a customer who has reversed payments for products/services that were fully delivered.

I am seeking your urgent legal assistance regarding my current situation in the UAE. I am a former Branch Manager whose residence visa expired on 23 May 2025, and I have exceeded the grace period of three months. Unfortunately, I was unable to cancel my visa due to an arrest warrant arising from non-payment issues linked to the company I was previously employed with. On 16 August 2025, I was arrested and attended the Prosecutor’s hearing on 17 August 2025. I was released with an ankle tracker under the condition that partial payment must be made by 16 September 2025. At present, I am no longer employed by the Company. My labour card has been cancelled. I have not received my final settlement or end-of-service benefits. I am a single mother sponsoring a child, and urgently need to regularize my visa status to be able to work again. I want your guidance and representation on the following: How to resolve or remove the arrest warrant/tracker condition/my name from this case?

Dear Sir/Ma'am, I am planning to bring my father to Dubai for a visit. He left Dubai in 2009 due to serious medical reasons and left his car with his cousin, with an outstanding bank installment for the car, which was around AED 10,000. We subsequently cancelled his visa. It has been over 10 years, and I am concerned about potential fines or travel bans, as we are unsure if the remaining car payments were completed by his cousin. We are not on speaking terms with his cousin, so I cannot confirm this. I found that checking fines or travel bans usually requires an Emirates ID, but my father left Dubai before Emirates IDs were introduced and only has his passport. The company he worked for also no longer exists. Could you please advise if there is another way to check for fines? Kind regards!

We are restructuring our existing business and plan to introduce employee shareholders as part of a retention plan. We require a shareholders’ agreement that governs their profit participation, limits voting rights to certain decisions, and sets a buy-back policy if they leave the company. Could your legal team prepare this for us?

I am writing to formally seek your guidance and assistance regarding my Technical Trade License and associated joint bank account. I hold a Technical Trade License together with my business partner, Mr. K. M., who has been out of the country for the past 2–3 months. During this period, he has been unreachable and has not responded to any calls or communication. Additionally, my partner has taken an amount of AED 30,000 from me, which has not yet been repaid. We also maintain a joint bank account under the company, which I wish to close. However, the bank requires both partners’ signatures for cancellation. As my partner is absent and not cooperating, I am unable to proceed. In view of the above, I kindly request your advice and support on the following: - The process to remove my partner’s name from the Trade License. - Guidance on how to proceed with closing or freezing the joint bank account in the absence of my partner’s signature. I can file a case in India.

I am joining a consortium investing in a real estate development project in the UAE. We need a shareholders’ agreement that details shareholding percentages, voting rights, profit-sharing, exit strategies, and non-compete obligations. Could your legal team draft a clear, enforceable agreement that aligns with UAE commercial and property laws?
