How to recover the amount of bounced cheques under the new law?

Q: Hi, I have a cheque bounce from a person who owes me 63,000 AED. They are two cheques; one for 43,000 and another for 20,000 have bounced. How can I recover my money? The person continues to ask for more time but it has been 4 months now and I no longer trust him. Please let me know the timelines, also whether a travel ban will be imposed on him with the recent change in the law (decriminalization of cheque bounce). Also how much court fees will need to be paid with the new law (with direct execution) and is it recovered from the other party? Looking for urgent help on this, please!

How can I make sure whether a job offer is genuine or scam in Dubai?

Q: Hi, I received a job offer in Dubai as an electrical/instrumentation supervisor but I`m just a bit confused for two reasons: 1) The starting monthly salary is AED 93,500.00 plus other benefits of AED 12,000.00 2) The company asked me to pay for the visa and for the work permit in the UAE (the site seems original and genuine..). The sum would be repaid at the beginning of the work in Dubai. This is strange because I have never advanced money for a visa in my passport and for a work permit when I worked abroad out of Italy I suppose this is a fake job offer. Thanks and regards G.

مدافعة دعوى قضائية رفعها شريك لاسترداد قيمة شيكات

س: السلام عليكم، دخلت وأربعة شركاء في مشروع. المحاسب كان أحد الشركاء وهو أخ لصاحب رأس المال. بعد سنة من العمل، أخبرنا أن المشروع تعرض لخسارة وعرض على الشركاء جزء من البضاعة مقابل شيكات بنكية وفي حال لم نتمكن من التصرُّف في البضاعة أو التعثُّر، يمكن العودة للشركة. وفعلاً بعد شهر أعدت البضاعة للشركاء لسببين: أولاً: تعثُّر تصريف البضاعة، والثاني: أن طريقة المحاسب في حساب الأرباح والخسائر كما علمت لم تكن صحيحة وأعطت خسارة المشروع. استلم اثنان من الشركاء البضاعة ولم يُعد الشريك الذي حررت الشيك باسمه الشيكات لي وأصبح يطالبني بالسداد من خلال دعاوى قضائية. ما الحل في هذه القضية؟

Can the employer terminate the employee without notice and pay compensation?

Please advise if we need to compensate the employee inclusive of the 30 days (notice period) in his leave salary and gratuity.

Can the landlord refuse to renew the tenancy contract shortly before expiry?

Q: Hello, Our landlord is trying to evict us from an apartment in Dubai because of a clause in our tenancy contract stating literally: "This contract is non-renewable and valid only for one year." This contract was signed on the 17th of February 2021 and our rent started on the 7th of February. Actually, the landlord refused to renew the contract on the first renewal because he is selling. He never sent any notice and just sent us an email one month and a few days before the end of our first year and asked us to leave. We refused to evict and tried to get him to sign an extension for a few months or one more year which he refused and ignored. We filed an offer and deposit case and asked him if he accepts it or not. Only then, he accepted to sign the contract but added many clauses. We signed because we needed the Ejari to unblock our access cards and we had visa renewals. We are going to have an eviction case and I would like to know if we can challenge that clause and how you can help.

How to protect a person who broke up with fiance from any future claims?

Q: Hi, I`m writing for my brother who got married on December 24, 2021, and has been living with his wife till last week. This marriage was not legally registered neither in the UAE nor in India, however, we conducted an official wedding function with around 150 guests here in the UAE. We thought the wedding will be registered within a week of marriage but due to the bride`s unacceptable reasons she delayed it or we would say wasn`t intending to do it. Now, they have decided to split their ways as we found out that this girl has so many problems & issues which we both families tried sorting out by talking to them. We found that she is an alcoholic and she said she can`t balance social life and family life so she wants to drop this relationship. My brother, however, is heartbroken and is getting into depression as both our families were not expecting this. Is there any way we could document this to avoid the girl creating any problems to my brother or to both our families in the future? Please advise.
