Hello, I had a case regarding fraud by technical means, and we did a tanazul. It was attested and submitted to the court, but the case still hasn’t been dropped and is now with the public prosecution. What do I do now, as I need to travel urgently?

We received a cheque which has now bounced. We have tried for over a month and a half now to get a new cheque from the person, and every day he says the next day. We need the money now. We have been to the police station, and they said they can not do anything as the reason the cheque bounced is "Insufficient funds." We have been to Al Barsha - Dubai Courts, and they said there is nothing they can do about it. We are not sure what we can do. We need the money asap to pay our kids' school fees, let alone all the interest we have lost.

Hello I joined my new company on February 26, 2025. Upon joining the new company, I asked HR if it was free to join the company, and she said yes. After working with them for 1 month, I experienced a salary delay, and I had to go to the office to ask why there was a delay in my salary. That is when the HR told me she deducted my whole salary to recover the transfer fee. Now my question is, who is supposed to pay for the transfer fee, the employee or the employer?

Dear Sir/Madam, I have lived in Dubai for 5 years. I left Dubai in November this year on an outpass to return to London, UK, for a family emergency. I owe 15,000 AED for overstaying fines, which I plan to pay when I return in January 2024. I still have a valid Emirates ID. How do I go about this? I was told that I may have a possible ban. Is this true, or is there a process around this? Can I pay my fine on re-entry at DXB, or can a lawyer efficiently sort out this process as I need to return to Dubai next month in January?

I want to move out of my family's home because I am experiencing mental torture, and I no longer wish to live with them. I have a 13-year-old brother who does not attend to school due to my parents. Is there a way for me to move out of the house with my brother?

Dear Sir/Madam, I paid money to a documents clearing company in Dubai to process a freelance visa for me. After receiving payment, they kept delaying and didn't even start the process. Doubting their intentions, I have demanded a refund of my payment, which they are now delaying as well. They keep promising they will do it in a day or two but are not keeping their word. I have payment proof in the form of an invoice issued by them and proof of the refund request in a WhatsApp conversation, where they repeatedly say they will do it but have not followed through. What action can I take against them to recover my money?
