What to do if your employer doesn't pay salary
22
Q: Hello Sir,
I am working in the UAE as a Telecom Engineer (but visa as an Electronic Exchanger). My company has no project since Feb 2017. They asked me to go on vacation in Feb 2017, still, they didn't get any project.
I came back on July 13, 2017, without informing them. Now they are not paying my salary as there is no work, so I asked them to provide NOC so I can find other jobs, and now they are asking for visa amount. WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?
Visa issue date: June 2016 (2 yrs employment visa)
Please suggest me what to do.

View allDo I need a lawyer to set up a company? 0
I am currently working in a company and I have saved enough money to start my own business, however, I fear that there might be some legal complications and high legal costs in establishing the company, Can you tell me the procedures of establishing a limited liability company and do I really need to hire a lawyer to do it or can I do it myself?

Labor appeal 0
My employer has filed an appeal to the Dubai Court decision on our labor case where they did not show up by submitting a backdated termination letter showing termination before the filing of the labor case.
I have the pic of actual termination letter which I was asked to sign after the labor case.
Actual timeline 21-07-2015 labor case filed, 27-07-2015 I was asked to sign termination which I didn't backdate, the document shows 18-07-2015 before the labor complaint.

Tadawul Account early close out 0
I'm a UAE resident and hold an account with "Existential Group" aka "Tadawul"... Their contract is fairly basic but they have specified payout periods etc yet I've been struggling with them since December to get money out, on the first of this month I always formally requested to close the account and have all monies paid out yet not a single person is able to comply with this instruction. I'm desperate for the money which is legally mine. I have stressed to them in email and numerous phone attempts but no one response. I'm currently out of UAE and only back on 9 April so am finding this extremely stressful trying to retrieve my finances. Are you in any way able to assist, if so how and what costs could I face doing so? Thank you in advance

Short term lease in Dubai 0
There are many of private apartments in Dubai advertised as holiday homes for short-term rent. As far as I know, there is a special regulation of such leasing in Dubai, requiring a permission from the government authorities.How can I be sure, that booking of an apartment for a short stay, let's say through Airbnb, is legal? What documents should I ask from the landlord to be on a safe side?

Service charges 0
I am the owner of the property and I am entitled to pay all the service charges to the management company. For the last year, the cost raises almost twice with no reason.
So I have raised this question within my community and we are now 11 people wanted to file an investigation case to know why we are paying more the landlords next door in the same area.
What are the procedures from here?
