Greetings, I sent a shipment of around 40k of value to France from Dubai on the 25th of August. During the communication with the shipping company, I was informed that it will take 6-7 days. It is the 7th of September today and until now they are unable to give me an update on where my shipment is. Moreover, this delay has cost me extra money on having to postpone the ticket of the receiver in France and his extra stay expenses. Is there any official complaint, or any actions that I can take against such an unprofessional company? Appreciate your reply!

Dear sir/madam, I am a teacher in Dubai under my husband's sponsorship. I have a salary account in Dubai Islamic Bank. I need to know the legal requirements for starting an online e-commerce business for which I will need to register a company. Can I work as a teacher and run my online business as well? I want to go with the laws.

Dear Lawyers, I have a company in Sharjah FZ. I hold 51% shares and my partner holds 49% shares. I am the director, manager, and the sole beneficiary of the company bank account. We are both now under the company visa. I, as the business owner, demand a few things for him to provide before he can benefit from the company. The point of the agreement is: - The new shareholder needs to provide business development capital for AED 145,000, payment will be on several terms. Since I made the change on the license and put him under the company visa, he has been delaying paying the capital. I have been chasing him through messages and phone calls, but he is still not responding. This made the cash flow of the company a mess. 1. What legal step can I take to take him out of the company and seek compensation for the mess he made with the company? 2. Will it be better for me to file bankruptcy or to fight the legal action against him? Thank you so much, appreciate your answer!

Dear sir/madam, One of my customers is not clearing his outstanding payment and is giving false promises. The provided cheque has bounced twice. Their license is inactive. Can we file a case against them in court according to Dubai Law? The amount is AED 28000.

Dear sir/madam, I have an issue with my end of service. The company made calculations on one amount and sent me the form, signed by the finance director. Now they say that there was a miscount and the amount has been reduced significantly. I need advice and assistance from a lawyer.

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?

Hello, I am seeking your legal advice regarding a friend who was previously imprisoned in Abu Dhabi. His case there is now closed, but he has another ongoing case in Dubai. Currently, we have lost contact with him and are unsure of his whereabouts. How can we check where he is or access any other legal facility? Are there legal procedures to locate a person with an ongoing case? What steps should we take to get more information about his status and legal position?
