Hi,
The time it takes to obtain an enforceable judgment from Abu Dhabi courts depends on various factors:
- Is the case disputed? I.e will the opponent be strongly defending the case?
- Does it involve technical complexities which require the appointment of an expert?
- Is the opponent's address known? If yes, is the opponent still in the country?
- Will the case go to appeal or court of cassation?
On average, court cases in Abu Dhabi take anywhere from 4 months to 12 months for the issuance of a final judgment.
