Q: Dears, I have a health insurance claim of 50K AED that was rejected by the insurance company because they think it is a pre-existing condition. The health issue was a heart attack that occurred for the first time so it is not a pre-existing condition. I would like to make an appeal on that rejection. I have all the documents (medical reports, invoices...). Best regards.

Q: What is the law in UAE if someone tries to commit suicide?

Q: I am seeking advice on behalf of my sister. My sister's husband worked for a company in Dubai and was away on business in Singapore, on a free weekend he took a leisure trip to a Malaysian island and was, unfortunately, killed in an accident. The company said that the business insurance will not cover the accident due to it being a leisure trip whilst on business. They are also withholding access to his laptop, although it is a work laptop, she feels there might be important policies, accounts and documents on it that are online only with no paper documentation. She will need to visit the UAE to sort out his flat and belongings, close any accounts he may have had and visit his employer to recover any payments due and discuss insurance payments. She has asked me to see if I can find any legal advice relating to these matters and to ask if there are points to be wary of, and, once she is back in the UAE I guess she will need legal representation in these matters.

Q: If someone (not a UAE citizen) commits suicide in Abu Dhabi, can his family get blood money or any financial help from the government?

The Insurance Authority has introduced a new regulation to regulate all electronic and smart insurance operations practiced by licensed insurance companies, insurance-related professions [such as insurance agents, actuaries, insurance brokers, surveyors & loss adjusters, and insurance consultants] and marketing insurance policies through banks to the extent applicable to their nature.
