The procedures required for the cancellation of a company and visas

15
Q: I am a partner in an LLC registered in Dubai, whose license was expired in Nov 2017.
I was a passive investor stationed in India and the company was managed my senior partner and MD (Managing director) of the company who was stationed in Dubai.
The company was not managed well, the licenses were not renewed and the business activities did not take place. My last visit was in May 2017.
The MD of the company is still in Dubai on an earlier visa but didn't get in touch with me and he's not reachable.
Now, I want to start a new venture in any free zone on an individual basis. How can I cancel the earlier visa and get a new investor visa in the free zone?
Is it necessary to liquidate the old company in order to cancel the visa? Is it possible for me to cancel the visa on an individual basis and apply for new company formation?
Please guide me.

Changing of local sponsor for a new LLC company
16
Q: Hi, I have recently started setting up a business (LLC) in Dubai and I have got an MOA already from Dubai Court signed by my local sponsor and myself. At this time of writing, I have waited a month already for my office "legal" Ejari which the PRO said he would arrange for some amount of money but not having a physical office in fact.
I am really confused now why it isn't done yet until now, which as far as I know should not take that long. In fact, I have met the local sponsor without the knowledge of his PRO, gave him AED 2,000 as per his demand and promised he could expedite the process and would do it by himself. Now, the local sponsor is no longer picking my calls.
Question: can I amend my application with another sponsor? I have paid him AED 5,500 as sponsor's fee for 1 year, can I still take that money back?

Hello sir,
We have an employee who was under probation period on a limited contract and with our company visa. The performance is poor and it is found that he is working for another company (his old work) while working with us.
So the management decided to terminate the contract. Apart from the salary, do we have to pay his ticket fare?

What is the required notice period for the landlord to evict the tenant? 0
I recently purchased a property in Springs which is rented till September. I need legal advice on the procedure to send an eviction notice to my tenant as I need to occupy the property for personal use.
As far as I read in the RERA legislation Page 108-110, Article (25) - Section - 2, if the landlord wants to occupy the property for personal use, 90 days notice is sufficient.
But the tenant insists to have a 12-month notice. What are my options and is it possible to send a legal notice to the tenant to vacate the premises at the end of the rent contract?
Kindly advise

How to claim compensation from a developer for delay in handover 0
Greetings,
The property was supposed to be delivered in June 2018 and is still not delivered. If they actually deliver by June 2021, what are my rights to the compensation?
At the time of purchase, it was a 50-50 payment plan. I paid the 50% at the time of purchase and in September 2019 they came back to me with an offer of a discount of 16% in the final settlement amount.
I accepted and paid the remaining amount as well. Therefore as of September 2019, I have paid 100% of the property value.
With all the financial challenges the delay has brought me into, I want to know what compensation is my right as I am assuming they will not be offering anything or if they do they might offer some waiver in service charges (for 1 or 2 years).
And I am worried if they give this waiver of service charges to everyone, will the property be actually taken care of or no?

Would a promotion offered with less salary be considered constructive dismissal? 0
Hello,
I am originally from the UK and relocated to Dubai in 2004 when my company established a new office.
I originally joined the same company in 2001, based in the London office. Since then, I have grown with the organization and am in a middle management role.
Recently, the company announced they would downsize the Dubai office, and affected staff would be offered to relocate back to an office in their home country (India) or to the new office being established in Spain.
I have been advised that my present role will be made redundant in Dubai but have been offered a new role in Spain. The new role is seen as a promotion but there are little to no benefits and it's a major drop in salary (basic salary would drop by 40%).
There are no additional allowances. Currently, I receive basic salary + allowances.
I have been in the UAE since 2004 and my options appear to be limited to accept redundancy or a new role with a significant drop in salary. Would this be considered constructive dismissal?
