Hello, We are a building materials trading company based in the UAE. We supplied materials worth AED 50,000 to a customer around 8 months ago, but despite repeated follow-ups and reminders, no payment has been made to date. We would appreciate guidance on the following: 1. What legal action can we take to recover the amount? 2. What documents should we have ready (e.g., delivery notes, invoice, emails)? 3. How long does the legal process typically take in the UAE for such cases? 4. Is there a recommended timeline or deadline after which legal steps should be initiated? Thank you in advance for your advice!

Hello, I filed an execution order against my ex-husband to ensure he pays child support. The judge issued an order to impound his vehicles and accounts; however, this has not yet been carried out. Could you advise on how long this process typically takes and whether there are any additional actions I can take to enforce the payment? I would appreciate your guidance on the best course of action to ensure my ex-husband complies with the order. Thank you for your time and assistance!

Hello, Good day! My landlord has sent me an eviction notice, which I received on 14 August 2024. The reasons are: - For personal use or close relatives. - For sale. Now, my landlord is pressuring me to move out at the end of my contract on 30 April 2025. I am aware that the eviction notice must be served 12 months before the eviction date. In this case, the vacating date must be 14 August 2025. For context: last year, three months before my tenancy renewal, my landlord sent me an email informing me that I had to move out on 30 April 2024. I objected, as there was no official 12-month eviction notice served through a notary public or registered mail. Based on this, I renewed my contract at RDC for another year on the same terms. Today, the landlord is telling me that because he informed me of his intention through email more than a year ago, he can now evict me at the end of this contract, on 30 April 2025, and not wait until the legal notice period ends on 14 August 2025. What are my rights?

Is the employer supposed to keep the employee's passport during his/her contract?

Dear sir/madam, I am from Pakistan. My question is: In 2013, the UAE imposed a permanent ban on me for health reasons because there were scars on my chest. I did my medical examination again in my home country and there was no issue now. I want to lift my permanent ban. What is the process?

Dear sir/madam, I got deported from the UAE in 2020. I want to know if I can go to other GCC countries for employment.

Hi Mr. Younis, Hope you doing good. I see a lot of amazing replies from you where you give a clear picture of what needs to be done next. I would like to thank you for this support.

السلام عليكم، أنا متزوجة منذ ٦ سنوات في الإمارات ولدي طفل عمره ٤ سنوات. طلب مني والده أن يأخذه إلى المول كي يلعب وذهب به إلى سوريا. أريد أن أحصل على حكم محكمة بضم المحضون وحكم نفقة، وأريد أن أتأكد هل فعلاً يوجد قانون أو اتفاقية بين البلدين بهذا الشأن؟

My husband and I are Romanian. We got married in Seychelles and live in Dubai. We own an apartment we bought one year ago. I caught my husband using prostitutes. I have proof of it as entry logs to my apartment when I was at work, many girls have visited. I want a divorce. Can my husband claim the apartment as it's jointly in our name? Can he get into trouble for using prostitutes in Dubai?
