Q: Hi,
I live in a country where international copyright law is not signed.
I am working on a series of tutorials published digitally, and I understand that my work is not protected by the copyright law.
1- If someone starts republishing my work, would it be possible to prosecute them once they exit the country?
2- Will I be in trouble outside the country if I violate the copyright of foreign works? ( I am trying not to do so, but just in case)
Q: Dear Sir,
I am a professional photographer.
I want to get my photographs protected worldwide. How is it possible? And what all documents are needed?
Many thanks
Q: My partner and I are starting a video blogging and content creation company in Dubai. Thinking to get the license from Sharjah Shands.
For the first vlog, we are contacting eminent people to cover their stories.
What forms do we need them to sign? (Model release? Authentic information?) And where can we get these made?
What are the charges involved? Any other legal things we need to be covered about?
The provisions of this Federal Decree-Law, known as the "New Copyright Law", govern Copyright regulations in the United Arab Emirates. The New Copyright Law repeals the previous UAE Copyright Law (Federal Law No. (7) of 2002 On Copyrights and Related Rights).
Hello sir,
I have been working for 1 year and 6 months in a restaurant without a vacation. Due to my health, I had resigned, and when receiving my payment, they had deducted 4200 for the visa.
Please I want to know if it is allowed to pay for the visa.
Thank you!
Regarding investment in a UK-based crowdfunding platform from the UAE
I am a UAE (Dubai) resident. Is it legal to invest in a startup that is based in Cayman Island and London through UK based crowdfunding platform (crowdcube.com) from the UAE?
Looking for precious advice.
Thank you!
3 years back I had given a post-dated cheque as a guarantee to a person whom I had to pay the money.
In 3 years time before the due date of the post-dated cheque, I had paid him partially by cash and cheque for which I have his signed vouchers and the PDC cheque details.
He was supposed to return back my PDC on the due date and collect the balance amount that was around AED 4000. The cheque value was AED 115,000.
On the due date, he demanded more money from me and when I refused, he bounced the cheque and filed a cheque bounce case.
He said I gave him a cheque of a closed bank account when he asked the money back and claimed the full amount. I was arrested and had to pay the fine for the cheque bounce case.
With the agreement I have with me and the payment voucher proof, can I sue him back for the false accusation?
And can I claim compensation for spoiling my name and image?
