إجراءات الحصول على شهادة إعلام وراثة شرعي
توفيت زوجتي في ديسمبر. وقد أودعت شركتها مكافأة نهاية الخدمة في حسابها البنكي.
يطلب مني البنك الآن الحصول على أمر من المحكمة قبل أن يتمكنوا من إعطائي الأموال. ما هي متطلبات الحصول على أمر من المحكمة؟

Dear Questioner,
I am sorry for your loss. May the soul rest in peace.
I assume that the deceased has not registered a WILL in any of the registries in UAE. In the absence of WILL, the family will have to open an Inheritance case at the Personal Status Court in Dubai.
Upon submission of valid PoA [PoA from all immediate family members], passport copies of the deceased and of the family [along with visa page of the deceased] and a death certificate (has to be attested and legalised), the court will issue a Legal Heir Certificate.
I recommend you to hire a lawyer at this stage. During the hearing stage, you will also have to present two male witnesses to promise before the court with regard to the relationship of the deceased with the applicants of Legal Heir Certificate.
Please feel free to contact me if you need any further assistance or guidance in this matter.
Thank you.
Regards,
