How to protect the financial transactions from being considered money laundering?

Q: Hello, I have a question regarding the legality of the following scenario: 1) UAE company 100% owned by individual "A" provides service and invoices of a foreign company of which individual "A" owns 40% share. 2) UAE company 100% owned by individual "A" provides service and invoices of a foreign company of which individual "A" is an employee (CEO, General Manager or such) and has no ownership. All transactions would be made bank to bank transfers, fully transparent, with invoices to support each transaction. The reason I am asking is that I have seen on an online forum (not run by experts) that this might be considered money laundering or illegal invoicing! Your help is much appreciated! I am trying to make sure that any future ventures I might consider are done by the book and according to UAE laws.

How to recover the money invested with a company asking to wait for 6 months?

Q: Dear sir/madam, I opened an account with a company. They traded metals (gold, silver…etc). It is based in Dubai. You can buy gold online and you have the option to ask them to bring you physical gold “within 48h”. Ten days ago, when trying to withdraw my money, they said it will take a long time to process them. They gave me a lawyer contact. I learned that the company is suing another company as they were buying gold on credit. They are suing them for 22M AED. The lawyer told me he is working to settle the case and recover the money and it seems it will take at least 6 months. What is your advice?

How to claim labor rights and settle a loan after redundancy?

Q: I was asked to leave by a private bank that I was working for by saying that I have provided wrongful educational information. This happened after 6 years of working for them.

This was my only source of income and now they want me to arrange for the outstanding loan. I did not provide any wrongful documents or information. How can I get my loan waived and claim my gratuity and other dues? Thank you
