Q: I have a case in Sharjah Court. Few hearings already completed and during last hearing, I have produced the witness as well. I would like to understand what was the comment made by the judge during this hearing. Where can I find case details? I didn't get this from public prosecution. Is there any online platform where I can check details online using case number?

Q: Good afternoon, I have a few questions regarding my upcoming labour case. My contract was unlimited and my employer falls under the immigration authority, where I worked for 3 and a half years and I have a claim amount of AED 36,000. I have filed a labour case for unfair termination and I've had my case registered through Adheed Centre. They have filed my complaint and given me my case number and now I have been asked to attend a first hearing on the 7th of July and I've been told that it will be a remote hearing. I just wanted to know if possible what the procedures are for this remote hearing and how it will be and if it's necessary to have legal representation for my labour case? Having seen the people in the Centre, I am pretty certain a good number of them can not afford a lawyer as well. So in case they don't speak Arabic and don't have a lawyer present, how will the hearing and case proceed?

Q: Hi Madam, Good Evening!! A labour case has been filed against my employer for the non-payment of salaries and final settlement at Abu Dhabi First Instance Court. The amount comes approx AED 95000. I've attended the hearing in Labor Court two times and the next date is given for 09-04-2019. But my company didn't appear for any hearing in the court as the authorized personnel in my employer are in large and the company is like the status of a lock-out, not legally. While checking the case status online, the stage is shown as (متداولة في المحاكمة), which translated into English gave me output as circulated in the trial. Please advise what happens next. How many more times I have to attend the hearings? When can a final judgement be expected and is there any chance of getting money?

Q: Salam, I received an email at 8.25 am stating that my first hearing is at 9 am, but I read this email at 10 am. Is there any issue as I've filed a case against my employer for salary? Also, I want to ask when I can apply for the NOC. My 2nd hearing is on 30th march. And what will the procedure be for this? Thanks

Q: Good day everyone! Can anyone help me to find an answer to my question? I am new to Dubai Courts. Tomorrow is my 1st hearing. I signed up to the Dubai Courts page and already linked it to my email. My question is where can I get the link for the hearing? Should I receive it in my email? Thanks in advance.

Q: Hello, I have a case in Sharjah for a rental dispute. How do I find the case number?

An interview-format article covering the topic of legal proceedings during COVID-19 in the UAE. This is from the legal podcast of lawyer Ludmila Yamalova, the founder of Lawgical with LYLAW.

The UAE has adopted a major reform in its legislative system that brought about 40 new laws and amendments to the company law, criminal law, personal status, among others. The amendments aim to develop the legislative structure in various sectors, the labor law being one of these, was the most recent. We try in this article to shed light on the changes introduced with the new labor law and their significance on both, the employer and employee.

The provisions of this Decree-Law, known as "New UAE Labor Law", govern labour relations in the private sector of the United Arab Emirates. The New Labor Law repeals the previous UAE Labor Law (Federal Law No. (8) of 1980).

The provisions of this Law, known as "UAE Labour Law", govern the relationship between employers and employees and other labour matters in the United Arab Emirates. There are special labour related regulations applicable in some of the free zones in the UAE.
