Amending the parties of a claim to include the real owners of the property

1
Q: I won a real estate case last year and I'm at the final stage of execution against an LLC which has just little assets.
Today, I learnt that this LLC has never been the owner of my ex-property as incorrectly written in my SPA. Instead, all the properties of that project, including the land, belong to 2 individuals who are the real owners as named on the title deed that all buyers received after having paid the 4% of registration.
I would like to know how can I redirect my case towards those persons who still have a lot of assets in the building?

Can I re-open criminal and civil cases for fraud after withdrawing them?

1
Q: I filed criminal charges of fraud against a Dubai resident in 2018 through a UK debt collector. The debt collector told me the criminal case had not been accepted, and so did the defendant. The debt collector may have filed a civil case.
The defendant promised to pay me back and pressured me into withdrawing the civil case. I agreed and signed a waiver to withdraw the civil case. He sent me the waiver to get notarized. I live in the UK.
However, I now suspect that the criminal case may have actually been accepted after all (without my knowing) and that the defendant tricked me into waiving my criminal and civil rights so that the court would be lenient.
What can I do now? I would never have signed the waiver had I known the criminal case had been accepted.
I presume I cannot file the same charges again?
I have evidence in whatsapp chat of him saying there was no criminal case accepted.

How to protect myself from being scammed again when withdrawing a criminal case?

2
Q: Dear Sir/Madam,
I want to understand the process of withdrawing a criminal case. I had filed a criminal case against a person (for scamming and impersonating a different identity) with the police.
Now, the defendant's family wants me to withdraw the case and claims that they will repay all the losses incurred. Should I:
1. Take them with me to the police station where I filed my case and sign a document.
2. Tell them to hire a lawyer from their side and clarify how the payment will be made.
3. Is there any other way to resolve this matter easily?
I also want to know what exactly should be written in the document.
I don't want to get scammed again, so I would appreciate your advice.

What is the process for filing a labor case? Is there a fee to file?

Can I cancel my house sale contract without extra fees after personal plans changed? 2
Dear Lawyers,
I signed a Form F with a buyer for the sale of my house as we were planning to leave the country. The contract was signed about a month ago, but the handover is not until August.
Due to personal circumstances changing, we are no longer leaving Dubai and would like to cancel Form F.
The Form F contract stipulates that we have to pay the buyer 10% of the purchase value. The real estate agent is now claiming that we also have to pay the buyer's real estate commission and the conveyancing fee.
Our understanding is that the 10% penalty is the only penalty. Which is correct, and what are the next steps to dispute this?
Also, is there any way to dispute the 10% itself under the law due to personal circumstances changing?

Tenant always late with payments, hasn't renewed contract. What to do? 2
Hello,
I have a tenant who is always late with their payment. Their renewal was supposed to be last December 2023.
Currently, they have not signed any new contract, provided any new cheques, and have stayed for three months from December until now without paying rent.
Additionally, I just discovered that they have sublet the apartment with partitions, which is clearly stated as not allowed in the old contract.
Please let me know what should I do legally!

Tenant received renewal notice, rejected proposed rent on renewal day. What next? 2
Hi,
We sent a renewal notice to our Dubai-based tenant 84 days before his contract renewal, with a 10% increase in rent.
The tenant neither agreed nor disagreed with the proposed rent and replied on the day of renewal that he wouldn't be paying the proposed rent.
Due to the argument, the landlord decided to reduce the rent, but the tenant has not yet renewed his contract. It has been 12 days since his contract expired.
Kindly suggest what could be done in this matter.
