Appealing a judgment of absconding and deportation
Q: I have deportation and AED 1000 fine because of absconding and overstay, but I`m still in the country (UAE). The court passed a judgement when I wasn`t in court and my passport is still in the appeal section in Dubai Courts. What can I do to resolve this problem because my husband wants to sponsor me and also my company has given me a paper to remove the absconding? I don`t know how I can clear it from the court so I can get my passport and go finish from immigration too.

Variance in the carpet area between the SPA and design drawings
Q: I purchased an off-plan property in Dubai, UAE. Later I found that the covered area in the Sale and Purchase Agreement (SPA) for the off-plan apartment is 25% more than the area calculated from design drawings provided by the developer. I followed this with the developer for more than a year but they have refused to discuss until handover. I bought two apartments in the same building and both have the same issue. Seems this is a widespread issue and the developer is deliberately charging 20%-25% more to buyers. I launched a complaint with DLD but they verbally asked me to go to the court. Is this a fraud? Where should I launch my complaint?

Removing a deportation order for possession of drugs
Q: Hi, My fiance was arrested due to drug possession. The prosecutor in Dubai dropped the charges and ordered deportation after 30 days being in jail, so he doesn`t have an order for deportation from the court as he didn`t go to the court. What are the chances for him to get back to the UAE as he has a good job offer and what is the procedure to do that? Thank youJan 5, 2019

Legal advice for defending a criminal case of defamation and slander
Q: Good afternoon, I was involved in an argument with my neighbours due to noise from their side, the argument escalated and I called them names. During the argument, I called the police. When the police arrived, the involved neighbours had left already. The police said that I could file a complaint at the police station, but I didn`t. The next day, I received a call from the police informing me that they filed a complaint against me. The case is currently awaiting transfer to the prosecution. I was told not to try and contact the neighbours in order not to escalate it to a bigger case. It`s been almost 2 months and my passport is on hold with the police since then. I need your advice to solve this matter. Thank you
