Hello, How much time do I have to start paying after the verdict in the appeal court? And what's the probability of freezing my account or traffic file if I’m paying?

I used to work as a manager in a company, and my name was removed by the Dubai court of execution.  Now, on the paid rent, I got a travel ban, which I objected to at RDC. The RDC accepted and gave the next hearing date, as I will have all the court papers. Is there any way to remove the travel ban, as the objections I made at the execution hearing are next month, almost one month? Is there any way you can put the amount as a deposit, and once the objection case is over, you can take it back?

My brother lost his job in the UAE 8 months ago and has a debt of AED 170,000 to a bank. He is finding it extremely difficult to make monthly loan payments to the bank, as he has been unable to find a job even after 8 months. What options does he have to reduce/settle his bank debt without having restrictions on him, like a travel ban, etc? Please help him find the best possible solution considering his current financial situation.

Hi there, My husband and I are Muslims. My husband passed away recently. We have a Canadian will, but I understand that it won’t be honored as I am named the sole beneficiary, and that does not align with Sharia laws in the UAE. He was not a UAE resident but had a small apartment with no Will in the UAE. We have 3 children. I am planning to go to Dubai to start an inheritance case. I don’t know the exact order of events and what needs to be done first. 1) Do I initiate anything from overseas before making travel plans to Dubai, or do I start once I arrive in Dubai? Mind you, we cannot afford to stay in Dubai for too long, as the kids have school. 2) Do I need a lawyer, or can this be done by myself? 3) I understand all foreign documents need to be authenticated before presenting them to the court. But I don’t know at what stage I would need these documents authenticated. I would appreciate it if you could provide a breakdown of the steps, the forms that are needed, and where I can find them. Thank you

I am working in a Dubai private company and I have completed six months of the probation period. Now, I have decided to resign due to a physical problem. My MOHRE contract mentions one month's notice, and I am willing to serve the notice period, but the employer asks for visa expenses. My passport was also retained by the employer. How can I cancel my visa by chance? I filed a complaint at the labour court. How many days does it take to get a verdict?

Dear All, Please do let me know how long does the court of appeal take to make a judgement. Can a court of appeal reject the appeal submitted by the defendant? I am looking for a good labour attorney, would appreciate it if you can give me your contact details. Thank you and looking forward!

My employer put my salary in the agreement as 800 AED since 2012 and still the same. But, my present salary is 2000 AED. Q1: How they will pay my gratuity if I cancel my visa from the company? According to my agreement salary or my present salary? Q2: If they hold my passport after canceling my visa, then what can I do? Requesting your help in answering these 2 questions.

I signed an offer letter and a copy of a contract in a company located in Dubai Design District. I resigned from my current company located in Jebel Ali and will be ending my noticed period on April 4, 2021. Now the new company is really unclear about when I can start joining them. If the company does not pursue my hiring, but I have already resigned and lost my job, are there any legal complaints and claims I can file?

I have a working visa in the UAE. I have decided to apply for an EU passport. Once I receive it, I need to surrender my original passport to the consulate since my country does not allow dual nationality. I will be informing my company HR about this. I would like to know: 1. Can the company terminate me since I have joined under a different nationality? 2. What will happen to my end-of-service benefits? 3. Do I have to undergo a medical test, get a new Emirates ID, update my bank accounts, phone registration, and other documentation? 4. Anything else to be done?

Good afternoon. The company terminated my unlimited full-time employment contract after 3 years, so not renewing my visa. I am working on my own visa now and continue as a freelancer. But they want me to sign their freelance/consultancy agreement with a clause that I am not allowed to work for any of their competitors (but they don't provide me with a visa, medical, no benefits, even not giving me enough working hours). 1) Is it legal to ask a freelancer for this exclusivity? 2) How I can be a freelancer and not allowed to work for other companies? 3) What shall I do if I still want to continue working with them but need other jobs in other companies to have enough income to pay my bills? 4) Am I entitled to gratuity? Because they didn't mention it. Thank you
