Q: We had rented out 2 x ISO tank containers to a local company in Dubai, who used it for transportation and storage of White Spirit and/or Ethanol. The rent rate was US$13/tank/day and they stopped paying for many months. After repeated emails, and constant pressure and personal visits, they returned the ISO tanks in damaged condition. Now the total unpaid rent, transportation cost and damage cost, is approx. AED 25,000 total.
What is my legal remedy? What are my options? Will it be worth it to litigate? What is your advice?
Thanks.

Assistance in refunding of capital invested
0
Q: Hi,
I am currently having an issue due to 2 investment policies that were grossly and unethically mis-sold from a reputed international bank...
I did not pursue this thru a court of law, but managed to get my complaint to the very top of the organization by the grace of God over several months of exchanges and dialogues. But since the dialogue has always been with a corporate and having no legal help, even though the bank has consented to return 75% of my loss at the further end of many months ...on the capital, I still feel that the bank is not being fair with me with what their stance is...
And I badly need someone with a legal eyes to help me know if I am being again cheated & taken for a ride by the bank, when they should have minimum returned my capital and compensated me for the stress, strain and pressure that I had to endure over a 10 months period ...after raising my 1st complaint...

Q: Can building management legally restrict customer access after specific hours, such as closing the main entrance at 10 PM?
My lease agreement does not specify operating hours and we have traditionally operated until 11:30 PM.
What are my legal options to address this new policy?

View allTerminating an employee after sick leave and claiming compensation 0
Hello,
My employer fired me under Article 44 for not showing up for work for 7 days in a row. But that’s not the case at all. I was sick and the management was aware and they let me go.
I went to another country to get treatment because it’s expensive in Dubai. My employer did not pay me my salary for the month I worked and fired me.
I have official sick leave from another country and there is correspondence where my employer sent me to another country for treatment.
The problem is that the employer says that he will take compensation for the training that was specified in the contract, but I did not undergo training at all; I immediately started work from the first day of work and there was no training.
Does my employer have the right to charge me such a fee and not pay my salary?

How to make the seller hand over the tenant's security deposit to the buyer upon completing a sale? 0
Should the seller in Dubai hand over their tenant's security deposit to the buyer upon completing a sale?
Who is responsible for managing this process?
At the time of the exchange, the broker said he would follow up with the seller and collect the deposit.
He hasn’t, and the seller has not handed over the deposit.

How to cancel the MoU to buy an apartment with the broker if the bank did not approve the loan? 0
Hi,
I have a situation where I signed an MoU and gave my security deposit to the seller's agent. However later, the bank valuation of the property is lower than the selling price.
On my MoU, it has a clause that “the buyer has a right to cancel/negotiate if the bank valuation is not the same as MoU.” I tried to negotiate, however, we didn't agree on the price so I asked to cancel.
Now the agent is threatening me that they will not cancel the MoU and that will deposit my cheque. Later I also came to know that the person I am dealing with is not the same person whose name is mentioned as a broker in the MoU.
The agent I am dealing with is constantly messaging me with threats. I decided not to speak to him and instead, I wrote an email to the broker whose name is mentioned on the MoU but received no response.
I am on a very tight timeline as I need to vacate my apartment in 3 weeks, I found another unit but I don't know if I can pursue this while the initial MoU still not canceled.
Please, I need advice.
