Questions & Answers
Does the court provide translator if I want to file for divorce as a foreigner?
Salam Aleykum!
I will open a case in Dubai court against my husband for harassment. He has not paid anything for months and I want to file for divorce and all my rights.
I am very worried that the judge will not understand clearly or that I will lose the case because of my accent! Sometimes some people don't understand some of my words.
Is there a translator in the Court who speaks Spanish and can provide it for free? Is that a service?
Due to my terrible financial situation, I cannot pay.
