Dear sir/madam, My rental cheque is due tomorrow and unfortunately, I’m not able to honor it. I asked my landlord to wait a couple of days but he doesn’t want to wait and said that he is going to cash the cheque tomorrow. Of course, the cheque will bounce, what would be the procedure then? Do I have a certain amount of days before eviction to pay the rent?

Dear Sir/Madam, Does the existing tenancy contract between the tenant and the previous owner remain in force even after the new landlord has purchased the property in the middle of an ongoing lease? And when should a new tenancy contract be made? Should it be made immediately after the property has been sold, or at the end of the ongoing tenancy contract signed between the previous owner of the property and the tenant? Also, does a new contract have to be in place for the tenant to exchange the cheques, or does the existing tenancy contract with the previous owner remain valid for the purpose of exchanging the cheques?

Dear Sir/Madam, I was wrongfully terminated by my school under Article 44 on March 20th, 2023. I have a case in the labor courts, and the first hearing is on April 4th, 2023. However, my employer is asking me to vacate the school accommodation. I asked the Ministry of Labor and the courts, and they informed me that the school cannot evict me until the case is resolved. Is this information correct? I am currently unemployed and have nowhere else to go until I find another job.

Hi, May you and your family be blessed. I'm extremely tense and need your kind feedback on the following issue. If I have a travel ban in KSA, can I travel to the UAE on a work visa? I have been visiting Dubai on a tourist visa without any problems. The ban was imposed because I had to leave KSA suddenly and could not return after an exit-entry, and I was unable to pay back my car EMI and credit card payment totaling 30k SAR, which I intend to pay off gradually now. When I left KSA, they only had my fingerprints at the time. I also understand that while coming for a visit to Dubai, only a retinal scan is done. On the other hand, when obtaining a work visa, UAE takes and registers fingerprints as well. Could this lead to any issues for me? I have finally obtained a better-paying job after a long time and can finally save up to pay off my debts. The case registered for which the travel ban is imposed is only for SAR 16000. As of now, I cannot afford to hire a lawyer to check in UAE. Thank you for your help!

Dear Sir/Madam, My landlord wants to evict me from the property where I reside. They have not provided a court order for eviction within the past 12 months. Additionally, they are requesting a 40% increase in rent and are insisting on a 6-month fixed-term renewal, despite the RERA index indicating no such increase. Furthermore, they have included an unreasonable clause that prohibits pets, even though I have lived on the property with a pet for over three years.  What options do I have if I do not agree to these demands?

Dear Lawyer, We are 18 landowners 200 yards each entered into a development agreement with a builder on 2/2014. Then conditions are that the builder in his share of 50:50 can construct flats and sell. With a GPA fraudulently obtained, 18 months time with a grace period of 6 months to complete and handover fully furnished the flats. In case of delay, a rent of 6000 per month and 3 lakhs refundable deposit are to be paid to each landowner. The builder neither handed over the flats (60% built) nor paying rent or deposit of 3 lakhs. Electricity meters are fixed on our name and we are all paying minimum charges. The builder is not responding to our phone calls nor attending meetings whenever called for. The builder sold his share of flats. Please advise me the best. L.

In accordance with the new FDI law in UAE - Dubai, what is the (steps/cost/requirements/time frame) to remove the 51% shares local sponsor holder, and make it 100% foreign ownership? Additional info for accurate answer: - The foreign owner and the foreign manager are out of the UAE, and the only physical - available person is the PRO person. - The local sponsor is a company with 4 partners, So, I wonder if ALL of the partners will be required to attend physically for the procedure of the 100% foreign ownership transfer, or only the PRO and the POA person will be enough? - The concerned company is an LLC Japanese company for water equipment trading, so it will be under the UAE cabinet positive list, right?

I would like a quote for the following documents: - IP Assignment Agreement - Software Development Agreement - Independent Contractor Contract - Client Agreement

هل هناك مانع من رفع دعوى مدنية بخصوص شيك مرتد ومن ثم التقدُّم ببلاغ لدى الشرطة؟ أي هل سلوك الطريق المدني لا يُسقِط حقي في توقيع العقوبة على الشخص الذي وقَّع على الشيك؟ سبب السؤال أن الشركة التي أصدرت الشيك بدون رصيد صدر قرار من الدولة لوقف اتخاذ إجراءات جزائية ضدها مؤقتًا؛ لذلك أريد أن أسلك الطريق المدني ثم الجزائي لاحقًا.
