Greetings,
If you have a judgment issued, you can submit an execution request. If not, you can file a lawsuit with the Family Guidance Department to reach a family agreement.
If no agreement is reached, the matter will be referred to the court to determine the alimony.
We are honored to provide you with legal support. For further inquiries about your topic, you can come to our office or contact us via phone, WhatsApp, or email.
Dear Questioner,
Submit your Post-Divorce Application for a Financial Order either in person or by post at your local Family Court, ensuring all forms are filled out accurately and all required documentation is included.
Be prepared to pay a fee unless eligible for assistance.
Hello,
Depending on where you are residing or where the divorce took place, you might need to apply through the Sharia Court (for cases under Islamic family law) or the Family Court in the Dubai Courts if your case falls under non-Sharia regulations.
There are fees associated with filing for a financial order.

If you have a judgment for divorce, wages, and expenses, a file must be opened to enforce the judgment.
If you have any questions, please contact us.
Dear Questioner,

Dear Questioner,
Thank you for your question regarding submitting a Post-Divorce Application for a Financial Order.
Once you have the application form, it must be submitted to the Family Court in the appropriate jurisdiction.
In Dubai, you can file this at the Personal Status Court, which handles matters related to divorce and financial disputes.
The process typically involves filing the documents in person at the court or, in some cases, through an authorized legal representative.
There are court fees associated with submitting these types of applications, and the amount can vary depending on the complexity of the case and the financial claim you are making.
To avoid delays or complications, it’s always advisable to have a lawyer handle the submission on your behalf, ensuring all documents are in order and the correct fees are paid.
