Salaam Alekum We had a client from the US who had an agreement with us for 19-20 big buses for 20 days of transport service in KSA. They cancelled 12 buses and then the entire order 2-3 days before the event. They paid around 25% of the total cost initially agreed on 50% before the event. We have been keeping those buses on hold for more than 1 month, not taking other bookings, and facing losses. My company is charging them 50% cancellation fees because of last-minute cancellation, but now the client is threatening us to take legal action and doing PR advisement by asking for the deposit they paid. Our policy is refund will be issued within 45 days after internal investigation, but the client is threatening us again. We don't give a refund if the cancellation is done by the client and mentioned on the invoice as well. In this case, we are considering a solution which takes time. What can we do in this situation, as we have already faced lots of loss?

Hi I have a ban on my license, and I have overstayed here in the UAE. Will that affect my other visa application to KSA?

Hello, I am seeking your legal advice regarding a matter involving a former colleague who borrowed money from me for personal reasons. Despite multiple follow-ups, he has now blocked all communication and is refusing to repay the amount. I have clear proof of the transaction through bank transfer records, WhatsApp conversations, and a copy of his Emirates ID. This individual has a history of borrowing money from others and not repaying, and even told me to "go to the police," showing no intention of resolving the issue. Please advise on the best legal course of action to recover the amount and proceed with a formal complaint if necessary. Looking forward to your guidance!

An "A" individual / Company by mistake transfers/deposits some funds to another "B" company. "B" company, despite certain follow-up efforts with "A" Company to recall or claim back the wrong payment, remained unresponsive, and “A" company could not track the depositor information. In such cases, what is the time frame within which "A" Company is liable to retain in suspense? Can "A" company deny the claims of "B" company in the future, as it was written off by "A" company after a few months of tracking.

Hello, I received an eviction notice from the Abu Dhabi Enforcement Court to evict my current apartment for non-payment of rent (Due to loss of job). I wanted to cooperate, so I went personally to the Abu Dhabi Enforcement Office one day after I received the notice by SMS to arrange the eviction date to be 25 July, as I had a friend I could stay with temporarily until I sorted out the situation. Now my friend is traveling till 16 August, and I have literally nowhere else to go. Is there a way to submit a petition to reschedule the eviction till 16 August? I need help on this ASAP, as the enforcement is in 4 days. If no solution is found, I will be forced onto the street in temperatures of +40 degrees, and no way to go

Hi Sir, My company was not giving me my commission cheques since November, so I kept the payment of 2 - 3 customers with me and I told the company to pay my commission to take payment of customers, then I lost the money from the car. I reported it to police, but police didn't find any evidence. Then my company came to know this matter, and they said I owed them money. They forced me to sign a paper that I would pay in one month for the amount of 18000. I signed it, then they terminated me. They were not ready to pay anything. I filed a case in labor for about 37000 dhs, then my company filed a criminal case against me for breach of trust. My company has my passport, and they haven't canceled my visa yet. After my labour case, my company filed the case against me in labour as well, claiming an amount of 49900. Then they requested to cancel the labour case of 49900 and filed a case 24000. What should I do in this scenario? I am under too much stress. Please advise.

Hello, I want to know if my employer has the right to send me back to my home country since they hired me directly from there, if I resign after one year with them.
