Q: Hi
I had some cases from the banks due to a bounced cheque and I fled the UAE.
After a few years, I have now cleared all liability with all banks and they have provided the clearances and NOCs.
I need help in ensuring my cases are cleared and to obtain the respective police clearance certificate on an urgent basis.
Request for an appropriate lawyer to kindly comment and also quote their fee for this.
Thank you

Q: Hi,
I am outside of the UAE.
I had a previous case for a bounced cheque with a bank in Dubai, going in front of the judge I was ordered to pay a fine, which I did and the case was cleared and I left the UAE.
I have applied for an online police clearance certificate but it was rejected, does this mean there is an open case or due to the old case?

The public prosecution appealed a judgment to increase the fine I already paid. What do I do now? 0
Good afternoon,
Thank you for your time.
The public prosecution appealed my judgment (a fine that I satisfactorily cleared) and requested increasing the fine.
Can you please explain what happens during a criminal case appeal hearing for me as a defendant?
Will I be asked questions?
Is the hearing just for the Public Prosecution to present their appeal to the judge, and I do not need to give a response?
Thank you again for your time.

I purchased an apartment, but the previous landlord refuses to vacate. What to do? 0
Hello,
I bought an apartment, but the previous landlord is refusing to vacate it. The contract clearly states that the landlord should hand over the apartment on the day of the transfer.
Out of courtesy, I gave him three days to vacate so he could find a new place to stay, but the time has passed, and he is still refusing to vacate and hand it over.
What should I do in this case?

Dear lawyers,
The new employee will start on June 1, 2025. However, he would like to open a new bank account in the UAE thus asking to provide the salary certificate mentioning his salary in AED and if possible not mentioning the start date.
Legally, can the company provide such a certificate?
