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?

Hi, Good day! I have been working in my company for about 1 year and 1 month and I want to resign to go back home to my country. Are there any consequences for that? Any advice, please?

Hello Nicole, Greetings! I have been working in a private company in Dubai for the last 13 years under an unlimited contract. Recently, they have made my position redundant. I am now serving 3 months notice period as per the labour contract (2 months already served, I am now in 3rd and last month). My employer has put me on forced paid leave to adjust my notice period against leave days balance. I need some clarification per below, please. 1. The employer is paying me a full salary for a notice period of 3 months. However based on the recent announcement from the Ministry of Labor (for Private Co. employees), can my employer reduce my salary temporarily/permanently in this last month of notice period? 2. If the answer to question 1 is YES, how will it impact the calculation of my end of service benefits like gratuity or leave balance encashment? Will it be recalculated based on the revised (reduced) salary? 3. Am I eligible to claim any other Termination/redundancy pay apart from gratuity and leave balance encashment?

Hi, I am a first timer here in Dubai. My employer wants to charge me all her expenses incurred during my application; like medical examination, visa, work permit and the money she gave to my agency. What should I do?

I sold my car and the buyer gave me a cheque. The cheque bounced because the account is closed. He is doing this as a regular business. I have already filed a complaint to the police station and I'm waiting for the judgment from the court. Maybe he will get the fine only. How can I get my money? Which case should I file: a civil case or a car buying fraud case? He may not have anything under his name. If a civil case is filed against him, he knows how to avoid this case .This person has more than 14 cases. Recently, he got out of jail. The issuer of the cheque is a local Emirati guy.
