I am in my grace period after my residence visa cancellation. Is overstaying after the grace period illegal? If I stay paying fine till my new visa gets finalized, how will it affect me? Will I face any ban? Please advise! Thanks!

We have an existing tenancy contract in Sharjah, but due to unfortunate circumstances of this pandemic, my wife and I lost our jobs. We already paid until December. Is there a current law where we can avoid paying the penalty of 2 months if we will end the contract earlier?

Hello Can I have your Whatsapp number? I have an urgent question, please.

Hi All, I have an existing criminal "cheque bounce" case under my name for dishonoring loan payments. I'm also a victim of unpaid salaries and gratuity from the previous employer. However, I have reached a stalemate in negotiating with the bank as they are not interested in accepting the money I could offer in the interim despite having a clear understanding of my predicament. Finally, I have an offer from a company after all these months and I'm anticipating to accept this offer but I'm yet to resolve the criminal case! Since the bank is not willing to negotiate, I've planned to pay the criminal case removal fee or fine to the Dubai Police. I know that the bank would immediately proceed with a civil case should that happen. My question is how long does it take to file a civil case? And can they initiate a travel ban without appeal while filing the civil case in court? Will it affect my capacity to get a new employment visa stamped and work in the UAE while the civil case is active?

I am seeking legal advice to terminate the contract due to a delay in the project for a period of 16 months only. The following is the details of the project as per SPA and some givens: - 30% paid in installments (on time, no delay in payment). - 70% to be Paid on Handing Over. - Expected Handing over date: 1st April 2019. - Longstop date of Handing over: 1st April 2020. - Actual date of delivery announced by developer: 10th August 2020. - Notification sent to the developer by myself to terminate the SPA and return the 30% paid amount. - Developer responded that the notification is rejected as the delay is due to force majeure (Covid-19 Pandemic).

Hello I am contacting you from London. I have purchased a property in Dubai in a project in 2005. We purchased two apartments and today we have not received anything yet. This construction project is still going on and the developer has changed many times. Another company now runs the project, and whenever I contact them they say it's going to be ready in the next 3-months or 6-months. It keeps postponing work are currently at standstill. I have contacted them then and the same they're waiting for more information from the Dubai authorities. Every time there's a different story, and we get delayed. It's now been 16 to 17 years since we have invested in this and I would like to put a stop to this now, possibly get a refund and compensation. Could you please help me by advising me what my situation can be?
