Can you get a PCC if you leave the UAE with an unpaid loan and another closed case?
Q: I need help getting a PCC for my uncle who needs it for visa/immigration to the UK. He used to live in Dubai but left in 2015 and never went back. He did not finish paying a loan he had when he left. He had also been jailed in Dubai for a month after a drunken fight for which he paid the penalty charge before release. Is it possible for him to get a clear PCC or not? Please advise.

How to claim your labor dues after getting a judgment in your favor
Q: Hi, I filed a case against my company for not paying my settlement dues in spite of waiting for 5 months after my termination. The labor court has decided in its judgment on a claim amount of DHS 20000 as my settlement dues. The company did not bother to either receive any call from MOHRE and subsequently did not attend the remote hearing in the courts as well. Now, my question is that if the claim amount is 20,000 Dhs as decided by the court, what is the procedure to notify the company about this judgment? Will the court notify the company of its judgment or is there any other process to be followed by me to do the same? Secondly, as I understand, the company cannot appeal the judgment if the claim amount is below 20,000 Dhs. In such a scenario, if there`s no appeal, what`s the timeframe within which the company adheres to this ruling by the court to pay off the dues? And can they explore the option of paying the dues in installments to delay further?

Can I terminate property purchase and recover payments and cheques for breach?
Q: Dear Sirs, I signed a contract with a developer in the UAE to purchase a property off-plan, with expected completion in late 2024. Construction on the property has not started yet. I have also provided them with cheques for the downpayment as well as the installments. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I informed them that I will not be able to go ahead with any of the payments. So far, I had only paid an initial "show of interest" fee of AED 10.000 by credit card. I have asked for the contract to be canceled, and for the cheques to be returned. They have refused to do so and stated that as a penalty for defaulting, I will have to pay 10% of the total amount. The first cheque for the down payment is due in one week and it will be returned by the bank due to insufficient funds. Kindly advise on my options.Nov 21, 2022

Filing a case with RERA to get the deposit that the landlord used to paint the villa?
Q: Hi, My landlord will not refund my AED 4,500 deposit for my rented villa, because he claims it was used to paint it, as per the request of the new tenant. I lived in the villa for less than 10 months, I left it in great condition and my contract doesn’t state I have to paint it upon the end of the contract. All the contract says is that the rental is bound by law 26 of 2007, in which article 21 states that normal wear and tear is acceptable. Initially, I was informed by the agent that the villa is in great condition and I will get all my deposit back. Then the landlord changed agent and the new agent claims that it is their practice to paint the properties before a new tenant moves in, irrespective of the terms of the contract. Should I file a case with RERA to get my deposit back?
