Claiming an unpaid invoice from a client against provided services
One of my customers is refusing to pay for the service which they already got, the value of the invoice is AED 6,000.
What can we do since our company is very small with an annual turnout, not more than 300,000?
Dear Questioner,
If you don't have any cheque issued by that company as a guarantee, unfortunately, you need to open a legal action against them.
In the beginning, before starting with the legal action against them, I suggest you to hire a lawyer to serve them with a legal notice.
In case they will not take any action, based on the legal notice, you have to open a court case against them if you wish to recover the funds.
However, considering the small amount that needs to be recovered, I believe that it's not worth it because you will spend much more on lawyers, court fee and translation of documents.

You can give him a formal legal notice at your own and set the deadlines to be paid. If they don’t move, you can hire a debt collection agent to work for you on a contingency basis.
You can also manage to send him a formal legal notice notarized by Dubai courts with the help of your lawyer.
Please feel free to call us for more assistance if needed.
Thank you for your inquiries.
Please send me a Whatsapp to my phone and I will help you recover your money from the client.
