I joined a hospital as an office staff a month ago and have been working for one month. Now I am under a probation period which is for 6 months. I am on a husband's visa and did not take any facilities such as medical insurance, accommodation, or visa. I am not comfortable with the work atmosphere and would like to resign from there. What will be the financial and legal consequences? I heard they normally charge 45 days salary and a ban is imposed even under probation period. What should I do to terminate the contract?

I was terminated from employment in June 2021 after receiving and working 1 month's notice. I was on an unlimited contract. I am still waiting for 2 months' salary, gratuity and leave payment which my employer accepts is due but still not paid. I have raised a complaint with MOHRE and have the approval to go to Court. However, I was terminated as a result of the employer citing that due to COVID-19 they need to reduce salaries by 30%, letter dated 22nd Apr 2021. As I refused to sign, I was then terminated, via a letter dated 3rd May 2021, which stated "due to restructuring", my position had become redundant. The question is - Am I able to claim Arbitrary Dismissal for up to 3 months salary for the unfair termination?

السلام عليكم، لقد اضطررت لتوقيع استقالتي قبل أخذ مستحقاتي. هل يمنعني ذلك من المطالبة بمستحقاتي طبقًا لقانون العمل الإماراتي؟ علمًا بأن عقدي محدد المدة ولم يتم إخطاري كتابة.

السلام عليكم، أشكركم على هذه الخدمة الجليلة ووقتكم الثمين! رفعت زوجتي قضية طلاق للضرر في محكمة الشارقة الشرعية وخسرتها (لم يثبُت الضرر) واستأنفت و خسرت أيضًا. الآن رفعت قضية جديدة وعيَّنت المحكمة حكَمين وأتوقع أن تكون توصيتهم بالطلاق. سؤالي يتعلق بالأبناء، لدي ابن وابنة: الابن عمره 14 سنة و8 أشهر مقيم في الإمارات والابنة عمرها 17 سنة و5 أشهر وغير مقيمة في الإمارات وتدرس في الجامعة خارج الدولة. أسئلتي كالتالي: - هل للمحكمة ولاية على ابنتي بالرغم من أنها لا تملك إقامة في الإمارات؟ - هل يمكن للزوجة طلب الحضانة للابنة مع أنها تقيم في الإمارات بعيدًا عن الابنة؟ - هل في العادة تحكم المحكمة للأب بحضانة الابن فوق الـ11 سنة أم ستسأل الابن كي يختار مع مَن يقيم؟ - عند الطلاق لن يكون للأب زوجة، فهل يؤثر ذلك في حضانة الابن بالنسبة للأب؟ - ما النفقة المتوقعة إذا كان راتبي 17500 درهم شهريًا؟

هل يفصل القاضي في حضانة الأبناء في نفس منطوق حكم قضية الطلاق للضرر أم يفصل فيها بعد انتهاء العدة؟ الخلفية: الزوجة رفعت قضية طلاق للضرر (محكمة الشارقة الشرعية) وخسرتها ثم استأنفت وخسرتها أيضًا ولم يثبت الضرر. الآن رفعت قضية جديدة وتم تعيين حكمين من المحكمة ويُتوقَّع طلاق المدعية.

Hi, I need some guidance regarding a property transaction that is not progressing as expected. My broker initiated a manual Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between me (the Buyer) and the Seller, with an expiry date of 01/02/2025. Within this period, I successfully arranged the bank mortgage, property evaluation, and NOC. However, the broker started giving excuses, such as the seller being hospitalized. Later, the broker attempted to arrange a Power of Attorney (POA). However, after that, they started ignoring my messages and calls. It now seems like they no longer intend to proceed with me, and the MOU has already expired. Meanwhile, my bank EMI has already started, and I have paid two monthly installments. The broker is still unresponsive. I have raised multiple complaints through DLD RVS against the broker, but the response has been very slow and unsatisfactory. I’m feeling stuck and financially burdened. Please advise

Hey, I'm building my house in Dubai, and it was going well. I gave the contractor 420k as a first payment, and we both agreed that the rest would be in installments. Just two months ago, the contractor went off the grid, and I can't find him. All I have is a security cheque that bounced back when I went to the bank, as the signature doesn't match what's in the file. However, I learnt that he does have money, but not the amount that's in the cheque. What should I do now to get my money back? I need advice.
