The right to get a ticket back home upon resignation
24
Q: I completed 3 years, so I am eligible to get my ticket to go back to my hometown because I resigned already and the owner of our company said that you used your company ticket 2 months before.
So now I'm not eligible to get a ticket. Is that true?

Is two months' notice before contract expiry enough to terminate an employee?
2
Q: Dear Lawyer,
I am a part of the HR Team of a company on the mainland. In our company, in order to terminate a contract, a notice of 3 months has to be served.
We need to terminate the contract of an employee and only two months remain for the completion of the contract. We have mentioned the below statement in our contract:
"In case the company is the party who desires the termination, the company shall notify the employee in writing, three months prior to the termination date or for the remaining period of the contract, whichever is shorter. However, if the company fails to serve the above-mentioned notice, the college shall compensate the employee with three months aggregate salary or the remaining period of the contract, whichever is shorter."
So please confirm if two months' notice is enough and this employee has no standing to challenge us in the court.

View allHow to get the security deposit from landlord after finishing all proceedings? 0
The landlord has not returned my security deposit worth AED 5000. I filed a case and have judicial announcements that the landlord should return deposit+expenses. But still no response.
The landlord is out of the UAE and his property is handled by the agent. Not sure how to get my money back while I followed all procedures, even filed an execution case but no response.
While I keep paying to follow up on the case, the property is rented out to the next tenant and earning money. I feel like this system is created like this on purpose.

Is it possible for the employer to drop a case filed by employee in free zone? 0
I filed a complaint to SHAMS regarding unpaid salaries.
My employer drafted a contract saying I should drop the complaint within a week. If I fail to do so, they have the right to do it themselves.
Is this acceptable?

Winding down an LLC company and the liability of the manager after absconding 0
Hi there Michael,
I am a 24% shareholder in an LLC wherein the other shareholders are our local partner with 51% shares and the partner who is listed as manager on the trade license with 25% shares.
The manager has absconded leaving behind unpaid VAT and other debts that are well over 30 days due (up to a year). No proceedings by creditors have been filed against the company and the MOA contains a general POA in favor of the Manager.
I would like to wind down the company without going through bankruptcy procedures. My understanding is that the listed manager of an LLC is personally liable for the Company's debts.
I need advice about the procedures required to wind down the company. I do not wish to go through bankruptcy procedures as the finances and management of the company were being handled by the manager. I am just the creative director of the LLC.
Please advise as soon as possible.
