Good day! I have rental disputes and got a settlement plan 8 months ago. But I did not pay the settlement because at the moment of applying for the settlement plan, I had a job offer and lost it because of the travel ban and the visa could not be processed. I have another personal police case where I already paid an amount of 18,000 and the claim was 40,000 dirhams. Now that I did not continue paying, the plaintiff put the case again. I have another offer letter now and I want to get a clearance certificate within 48 hrs, or else I might lose this job as well. Kindly advise

I bought a new vehicle from the dealership [-----] and after 5 min of using the car, an alert popped up. Less than 24h later I informed the dealers of the issue. After struggling with them about it, I finally brought the car to service at their company and they have confirmed the part needs to be fully changed. I’m telling them I cannot accept a faulty car and demand either a refund or another vehicle. So far they’ve been less than cooperative.

Dear sir/madam, There is a case against me in a commercial, full-jurisdiction court. Sorry if I'm getting this wrong. I have not participated in the case and on the advice of my UK lawyers, I have not been represented there in Dubai. Upon checking the portal, it says a judgment was reached yesterday, but I can't see further details. So my questions are: 1) Do judgments happen behind closed doors or in front of the lawyers? (the plaintiffs have lawyers) 2) How long does it usually take for the verdict to be public and for me to see the outcome of the case? The only thing it says online is the word "decided".

Hi there, I got deported from the UAE for failing medical but when I reached my country, I have done several medical checkups but everything is OK; HIV negative, no hepatitis B, etc. I don't know if there was a mistake or a misfortune for me. I am wondering if they can allow me to come back to Dubai.

Respected Advisors, I have been involved in a few criminal cases since 2017, but all of them were cleared by this year. I have obtained release letters for all the cases from the public prosecution office through an online portal. Recently, I also received my residence visa. After the visa process was completed, I applied for a PCC online. However, the request was rejected. I contacted the 901 office, and they advised me to visit the CID. I arranged for a power of attorney to be granted along with all the necessary documents to update the system. Twice I was told to come in person, but I am hesitant to do so because of my previous negative experience. Could someone please advise me whether I must go in person or if the person holding the power of attorney can handle the process? Thank you!

Hello, My rent cheque was bounced, and my landlord filed a case against me in Sharjah Court. I received a fine of 2,000 AED, which was later reduced to 1,000 AED upon appeal. Does this case count as a criminal conviction under UAE law, or was it handled as a civil matter? If I apply for a U.S. visa, will I need to submit court records under the requirement for applicants with past convictions?
