Filing a civil case to recover the amount of a bounced cheque

Hello,

I received a company cheque from an individual who owed me money (between AED 10,000 & 20,000). The cheque bounced and I wish to file a civil case.

A criminal case has already been registered. Can anyone advise me about the steps to register a civil case?

Also, can someone highlight what happens in court during a civil proceeding?

Thanks

Dear questioner,

In a criminal case, you will not get the money. The other guy can convert it into a fine and finish the case.

The civil case is basically for the recovery of money, and definitely we can help you in the recovery of your money.

Kindly contact us on the phone for a detailed discussion and further assistance.
