كيف يمكن لشركة ذات مسؤولية محدودة أن تعلن إفلاسها؟

Hi I'm a tenant of an apartment and a new owner has purchased the apartment. I would like to know: 1. Should I revise the Ejari by canceling the previous one and applying for a new one? 2. My current rent is 35% less than the current market value. Can the new owner change the rent as per the market value, or he still has to follow the RERA Index calculator for a new contract?

I'm staying in JLT in a house with a rent of AED 140,000 per year. The lease starts on 1st Sep '23 and expires on 31st Aug '24. The landlord sent me a legal notice from the Dubai Courts in mid-Sep '23, giving me 1-year notice to vacate the house as he plans to sell the house. The notice was received by me through email from the court. He claims the email notice sent by the court is not valid till I receive it by courier via Aramex for my physical signature. Can you please confirm if this is true? The landlord is now ready to let me stay in this house for two more years. He has proposed that we maintain the existing lease agreement and Ejari. However, I should pay him AED 14,000 in cash (10% increment). We will sign a separate paper document wherein we will agree that I will further rent increase of 10% (10% on (140,000+14,000)) on 1st Sep'24 when my current lease expires. Should I insist on making a fresh written contract with the higher rent (140,000+14,000=154,000)?

Hello. I have been with my employer for 15 months, and my employment contract is for two years. Is it possible to terminate the contract before the end of the two-year term?

Hi I have signed the MOU Form F since July 2023 and we prepared all the papers and the loan from my end on 23/8/2023. When I went to DLD for the transfer, the seller had registration issues and asked for some papers to be provided as the property is under the company not an individual. Since that time, we have kept renewing the MOU every month in the hope of finalizing but I am not seeing any progress. So I am asking about legal action as I already got a bank mortgage and started paying as well but not seeing any progress from the seller. So I need to ask the following: 1. If my MOU expired on 20.11.2023, can I file a complaint on 20 or after a couple of days like 23? 2. What will happen in terms of 10%? Will it be returned and what about the fees paid to the bank like mortgage fees, evaluation, and cancellation of loan? Will the EMI payment be compensated by the seller? 3. What is your advice? Thanks

Hi Lawyers, A lot of people had invested in a Forex trading company based in the UAE. Do we need to get a lawyer to file a case or can we report it to the police station to summon the party involved so they can settle and refund our money back? Please help us. Thank you!

Hi, My company in DMCC is planning to shut down. They are not willing to pay us the gratuity. They have offered the remaining staff, including me, to be transferred to a new company they are opening soon. Is there any way we can get a continuation of the contract in order not to lose our gratuity in the long run? We have all been in the company for more than 8 years now. Many thanks,

We have an enforcement order against our company due to a commercial case in Dubai courts filed by one of our creditors and the office is sealed by the court. The Ejari for the office has expired, in the meanwhile, the real estate is asking me to hand over the office or face another rental case as we are still liable for the rent. The civil case matter is involving a large sum of money which the company is not in a position to pay right now but does not want to be liable for another court case. Is there a way for the landlord to get their premises back? How long would the court keep the premises sealed until their next step?

Hello, Is there any restriction on a diplomat buying property in the UAE, where he works as a diplomat at his country's consulate?

Hi. One of my friends joined a Telegram group. They said, "We will transfer some amount to your account, and your task is to transfer this amount to another account. Once the task is completed, you will get 30 or 50 AED per task." He completed 3 to 4 tasks, but he realized it was not good, so he stopped. After one week, when he opened his account, it was blocked, and the bank said, "We are conducting an investigation; after this, we will let you know." After some days, he had an accident and went to his home country. He then received a call from a landline number, which was from the Abu Dhabi police station. They said, "We have received a complaint against you; come to our investigation department." However, due to his surgery and treatment, he could not go. After some time, his bank account was reopened, and he did not receive any further calls. I want to know, if he comes back to the UAE or goes to any other GCC country, will he face any problems? If someone has a case in the UAE, can they travel to another GCC country? Please advise!

Hello, What legal action can I take in case the employer refuses to pay my salary and I don't have a contract with them?

I currently live in Sharjah and have a UAE residence visa but I am not a UAE or GCC national. I want to open an online shop (Etsy or Shopify) to sell handmade items, such as crocheted goods, bookmarks, greeting cards, etc. Do I need a license to open an Etsy shop? If so, which license do I need to sell my products online, including UAE and worldwide? How much would it cost me? Can I keep my residence visa (sponsored by my father) and not change it?
