The estimated amount of alimony for child and wife upon divorce
Q: Alimony Money after Divorce Hi, I am going through a divorce with my first wife. The court has advised up to discuss the alimony money. She continues to increase her demand and is demanding much more than she originally requested to the court as she filed for the divorce. I would like to understand how much will be the alimony money if the court makes the decision, and how much should be the kids` expenses. Info: My current salary is 23K. I have 4 children with my first wife from whom I am getting a divorce. I have one kid with my second wife. I have my mother under my sponsorship as my father passed away recently. I have a bank loan where I need to pay AED 9,000 every month. My first wife is demanding approximately AED 11,000 (as expenses) plus accommodation, school fees and custody charges, which comes around 20K every month. In this situation, I am left wit 3Kh only to pay loans, my living, support the second wife, kid and mother. Thanks!

Breaking a tenancy contract by the landlord for non-registration with Ejari
Q: Hello, I have rented my warehouse in Al Qouz (Dubai) for 2 months ago, and my tenant still didn`t do Ejari register and so many registers that are the responsibility of the tenant.

The reason I have sent you a message is that I really want to know if there`s any chance that I can terminate my client contract. I have some client who is willing to take the place and pay me a better price. Can anyone advise me about this matter? Best regards,Nov 24, 2018
