How to retrieve passports from the police after interrogation
2
Q: My family's passports are detained. Three months ago I have been brought in for questioning on whether my children are mine at Al-Muraqqabat police station in Dubai. Afterwards, the government took our DNA.
A few weeks later, the government asked for our passports and took them. Since then, we have not received any updates on the case.
Is there anything we can do to resolve this case?

Luring for adultery and the proper legal action
2
Q: Hi there,
I’ve tried getting some help from you, however, I’m yet to hear back.
I’m seeking advice on the topic of adultery where my husband and I are from the UK and the lady is resident in Dubai. She is Canadian, but working for the Emirates Airlines.
My husband broke the relationship with her, but the lady keeps continuously contacting my husband asking him to leave me and our two small sons (5 years and 4 months).
She often gets under the influence of alcohol and on those occasions, she is even more aggressive with her approach. As the girl works for the airline, she has frequent trips to London.
I would like to see if there’s anything I can do to stop her trying to break our family. We do not want to get divorced, we are trying to strengthen our bond.
I understand that my husband was also at fault, however, he’s been trying to make amends for his mistake and find a way away from this girl but she would not stop contacting us.
Thank you for your help!
Best,
Agnes Gorgyan

Taking action on flirting messages exchanged with the wife
11
Q: Hi,
I need to know the legal consequences of sending intimate (like true lovers) Whatsapp messages to a married woman.
Here is the situation. X (husband) and Y (wife) are a couple and they are based in Canada. However, Y is getting separated from X and seeking a divorce.
While Y was in India as part of getting separated from X, another person A sent intimate Whatsapp messages to her. Also, note that A and Y are in love.
The person A is based out of Dubai currently. Is there any legal element to this situation if the person X files a case against A in UAE?
Please clarify.

Is flirting with a married woman on Whatsapp a crime in the UAE?
5
Q: Dear Mr Elnaggar,
I would really appreciate your help.
What are the consequences of having a Whatsapp relationship with a married woman (with kids)? Only over Whatsapp, nothing physical.
Her husband found out by reading her Whatsapp messages. If he decides to take it to the courts in Dubai, what are we looking at here?
P.S. all parties here are Canadians.
Thanks

Seeking divorce because the husband is cheating on his wife
2
Q: Hello,
My husband is cheating on me with other different women. I was always forgiving him. He always promised not to do that again and how important I and my son are to him. Unfortunately, he did it again. He damaged my heart.
I have already filed a case through a legal consultant. As I know, only local lawyers are allowed to represent at the court. I am searching for a local lawyer with affordable fees, please.
I really need help!
We both are Muslims, my son is just 3 years.
Thank you in advance!

Good morning Sir.
I have export perishables to Al Aweer market, and this particular gentleman paid for the first few orders but for the last few he didn't pay. He said tomorrow and it has never come.
I have all the documents and I filed a complaint with Dubai police, and I have the complaint numbers as well. Now, my finances are very bad. If you could recover my money from this man, it will be a great help for my family.
I trust Dubai people and this is what happened to me. If you could get your professional fee and get me the balance, then we can reach an agreement.

How can I check the immigration status of my friend who absconded from Dubai? 0
Hi there,
My friend absconded from Dubai in 2008/2009 leaving behind a small amount of credit card debt in Dubai and also left her employment without resigning properly.
If my friend was to fly to Doha, Qatar would this cause a problem? My friend has never been chased by the UAE bank and has never heard from.
Is it possible to check my friend's immigration status?

Refund of a deposit paid by the underage buyer of real estate property 0
I put a deposit down on two "off-plan" properties. I paid a deposit on both and received a reservation document signed and stamped by the developer.
However, at the time of the deposit, I was under the age of 21 which is the minimum age to purchase property in Dubai. Lastly once the deposit was made I never received an SPA or NOC. Have now been sent a notice by Dubai Land Department on the request of the developers for Property Termination procedure. The request was canceled.
I am now trying to figure out how to get my deposit back as I believe since I was underage and no formal contract was presented or signed, the agreement is void.
