Q: Hello Ma'am, I'm working in Al Ain and I have a few points to be clarified. I did resign on March 10, 2018, and my head office based out in Abu Dhabi said your last date will be April 30, 2018, verbally. However, I do have resignation acceptance without mentioning any specific date. I'm on an unlimited contract. My labour card expired on May 9 and my visa got expired on May 24th. I had no response from the GM regarding my F&F settlement and visa cancellation. I waited and visited them personally but no response. So I launched a complaint on the 23rd of May 2018. My only question here is, can I cancel my visa and ask my wife to take over on the pending settlement? The reason is I have to travel on a family emergency to my home country. Is it legally possible or what would you suggest in my case? Thank you Hari

Q: Hello Hope you are well. I had a case with 2 company cheques of AED 400k combined. I was sentenced for a year, which I did an appeal and was fined with 35K AED as a fine. I paid and I left the country. Now, I have been served with a civil case and requested to attend the court on Monday. I can not be there now as I am outside the country but someone with a power of attorney will attend and request to postpone until I come. I want to ask if I can hire your services to move the case to the company and not me as I am an employee and not the owner and the bank account is not mine, I am just authorized to sign. I want to check if I will be stopped when I come to the country or none of that will happen until there is a verdict. Will there also be a travel ban? What are the next steps I should take?

Q: If there is a pending case filed by the employee against the company, is it possible to travel while the case is ongoing? The passport is with the employee in this case.

Q: Good evening Sir, I just want to know if I can travel to my own country while I still have an against my company here in Dubai?

With the introduction of the new procedures for obtaining a power of attorney (POA) remotely in the UAE, after it was mandatory to appear in person in front of the notary public as a global rule to ensure the identity and intention of the person requesting a POA, we put between your hands this brief guide for how you get it done.

The law promulgates UAE Civil Procedures Code (Civil Procedure Law) which governs civil procedures in the United Arab Emirates, including the prosecution before the courts, litigation and execution.
