Hello, After I filed for execution in Abu Dhabi Enforcement Labor, the company deposited the judgment amount in the court bank account. I have finally received my judgment money in my bank account. Could you please advise about the Dubai Insurance amount of AED 20,000 still showing in the system, as Dubai Insurance was the counterparty and the case status is still showing "In Enforcement"? Will I receive this insurance money as well, or will it be returned to Dubai Insurance?

Hello, I filed an execution order against my ex-husband to ensure he pays child support. The judge issued an order to impound his vehicles and accounts; however, this has not yet been carried out. Could you advise on how long this process typically takes and whether there are any additional actions I can take to enforce the payment? I would appreciate your guidance on the best course of action to ensure my ex-husband complies with the order. Thank you for your time and assistance!

Hello, Good day! My landlord has sent me an eviction notice, which I received on 14 August 2024. The reasons are: - For personal use or close relatives. - For sale. Now, my landlord is pressuring me to move out at the end of my contract on 30 April 2025. I am aware that the eviction notice must be served 12 months before the eviction date. In this case, the vacating date must be 14 August 2025. For context: last year, three months before my tenancy renewal, my landlord sent me an email informing me that I had to move out on 30 April 2024. I objected, as there was no official 12-month eviction notice served through a notary public or registered mail. Based on this, I renewed my contract at RDC for another year on the same terms. Today, the landlord is telling me that because he informed me of his intention through email more than a year ago, he can now evict me at the end of this contract, on 30 April 2025, and not wait until the legal notice period ends on 14 August 2025. What are my rights?

Hello, I have been separated for 7 years from my late ex-husband in the Philippines. I am a converted Muslim since 2016, and my ex-husband was not Muslim. Can I marry my Egyptian fiancé here in the UAE?

Hello, I bought a brand new car. After 2 weeks, it completely shut down while driving. It got fixed. Then, a few weeks later, when driving on the highway, the whole car started to shake. They have taken the car back in and are saying it will take 3–4 weeks to repair. I don’t trust the car and am not happy with the car dealership for selling me a car that clearly had faults. What should I do?

Hi, I need some guidance regarding a property transaction that is not progressing as expected. My broker initiated a manual Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between me (the Buyer) and the Seller, with an expiry date of 01/02/2025. Within this period, I successfully arranged the bank mortgage, property evaluation, and NOC. However, the broker started giving excuses, such as the seller being hospitalized. Later, the broker attempted to arrange a Power of Attorney (POA). However, after that, they started ignoring my messages and calls. It now seems like they no longer intend to proceed with me, and the MOU has already expired. Meanwhile, my bank EMI has already started, and I have paid two monthly installments. The broker is still unresponsive. I have raised multiple complaints through DLD RVS against the broker, but the response has been very slow and unsatisfactory. I’m feeling stuck and financially burdened. Please advise

Hi, I want to complain about my husband who is having an affair with another woman and not giving support to my child.

Dear Sir/Madam, I want to get married, but my father is refusing. I am a UAE local.

Hi, I am a landlord and need advice on the following scenario. - The contract with my tenant expired in Sep 2024. Upon requesting the renewal, the tenant mentioned that she is out of the country and will sign the renewal contract and provide the rent checks. In the meantime, she paid the first quarter of rent through a bank transfer. - After 3 months, when the next quarter's payment was due, she deposited the next quarter's rent into my bank but did not sign the contract renewal despite my follow-up with her multiple times. At this time, she had returned to Dubai. - Now the next quarter payment is due, however, the tenant is not responding to WhatsApp or answering calls. She is NOT paying rent or renewing the contract. What action can I take since she is not answering my calls or messages? She does not have a valid contract or Ejari, and her rent is delayed by 1 month. All WhatsApp messages are delivered, but she chooses not to respond.

My new employer is not changing my visa status and refuses to provide cancellation papers, especially when I don’t recall signing any cancellation documents and haven’t received my gratuity yet. How can I register a complaint against my employer for holding my passport after visa cancellation? I had completed my one-month notice period and followed all procedures properly when I resigned. I'm currently working in a free zone company.

Hello, I have a case in Sharjah for a rental dispute. How do I find the case number?

Good day, lawyers! I do not understand what is going on. I was at the prosecution office last week and was informed that the other party is not in the country. Today, I was given another reason, saying they need the police to change the case number and revert to them. Is it possible to change the case number, or is this just an excuse to buy more time?

I had a rental dispute case with my previous landlord. I’ve been evicted now, and she took the keys right there in the presence of the police she came with. Upon going to Takhlees in Deira to open an account for installment payment, she hasn’t put on the website that the keys are handed over. I’m waiting for this because money keeps piling up since I last vacated the premises. I have been placed on a travel ban, which is also affecting my visa status. I need to regulate. Any advice, please? What to do?
