Hello, I want to know the UAE rules regarding second marriage for expats. I am a Pakistani national and already have a wife back in my home country. Now, I want to do a second marriage in the UAE with a Moroccan girl. Can you please let me know the procedure involved? Can I get my marriage registered in the UAE? Is it mandatory to disclose the first marriage? I am on an employment visa in Dubai.

I got a work permit and entry from a Dubai employer for work. During the travel to Dubai, do I need to show any accommodation proof, return ticket, or anything? What documents do I need to carry?

Dear All, I own an apartment, and a year ago, I sent a legal notice for renovation to the tenant. However, the tenant is refusing to leave. I have my drawings, and the company is ready to proceed with the work, but the tenant still refuses to vacate. What should I do? I know I need a technical maintenance report from Dubai Municipality. How can I obtain it, and where? Thank you all!

Dear Sir/Madam, Is it possible to send a legal notice to someone even though I don't have a copy of his Emirates ID or passport, but I only know his full name and office address?

Dear Sir/Madam, My tenant is not ready to move out on the last day of the 12-month notarized eviction notice. I need the place for myself to move in as my lease ends next week. What should I do?

My cousin who lives in Dubai took around AED 280000 from me on December 2023 for business and he told me that within one month he would return the money back with profits. Now it's been almost a year he has not returned my money back. I have no written contract. The only proof I have is WhatsApp chats, videos, and voice messages of him that he received money from me and that he would return it back within one month. In August 2023 I told him that if you don't return my money, then I would hire a lawyer and do a case. Then his father returned almost 20% of the amount back in August 2023 and told me the remaining amount I would receive from them by the end of November or December 2023. But now they are not giving me the money and telling me to go to the police or hire a lawyer, file a case do whatever I want to do. Kindly please advise me if hiring a lawyer in Dubai will be helpful or not. Will I be able to recover my money in Dubai in a legal way in such a case?

I need help in getting a police clearance from Dubai. I left the UAE in 2018 and left my bank debts unsettled. Can someone please help me understand how I can negotiate my situation in the most reasonable way? Thank you

Hi Sir/Madam, I need to obtain a police clearance certificate. I left Dubai in 2018 and was advised that I must clear a police case at Naif Police Station for bank credit (less than 10,000 AED) before I can apply for the PCC. Since I am outside the UAE, how do I get representation and clear my issue to obtain my police clearance certificate? Thanks!

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!

Good morning. My tenant was supposed to vacate the property on 15th April 2025 as per the contract. Now he is not answering the phone, and the property is still in use. Please guide the way forward. I have already rented the property to a new tenant.

Dear Lawyers, The case needs to be filed during official working hours, on a subsequent working day (if the last day falls on an official holiday), in Dubai. With Smart Police Stations operating 24/7, how are these situations considered? Should the case be filed during working hours, say before 3 PM, etc.?
