Filing a case to recover a debt without a cheque 

I own 10% of the shares of a restaurant. The contract I have had already matured and I was issued a cheque.

Naturally, the cheque bounced, but along the way, the cheque was sent back to my old company so I no longer possess the cheque.

And I was promised that the debt will be paid, but more than 1 year has passed and I haven't been paid anything.

I still possess the original contract and a letter stating that he will pay his dues.

Is this usable if I want to file a case claiming that he owes me AED 130k?

Hi,

Prior to initiating a case, we can formally claim damages by demanding repayment of the amount owed to you via a Legal Notice.

The Legal Notice will recap the scenario and implement evidence from supporting documents and UAE laws.

For further information, contact us via phone or email.
