Eviction of the tenant after providing bounced cheques for rent

Q: I am a property owner in Dubai. A tenant has been living in my property from 2016 until Sept 2020. This year, due to the concessions by Dubai government, the tenant started excuses saying he won`t pay his rental commitment & has bounced two of his rental cheques. During the eviction process, I came to know that there is also a Trakhees violation by the tenant in 2017 due to overcrowding for which I have taken a guarantee cheque & deposited in the bank which has bounced, as usual. The tenant claims there is no way he can be apprehended, thanks to the UAE/Dubai govt leniency towards the cheque bounce defaulters, & neither will he pay the amount. Please advise as I wish to file a case against him & also I am not a resident in the UAE.

How to claim damages from a dentist for negligence and malpractice

Q: Hi, I went to a clinic for teeth braces to make my teeth straight and they told me that they need to remove 2 teeth and then they will put braces. So they did the same and on 3rd visit, the other doctor asked me to do an x-ray to check the situation. She checked my x-ray and told me that sorry we can`t do this treatment with the braces because it`s a bone problem, so you can go to a surgeon. Now, I am struggling with pain and even all my teeth are shaking. I want to file a case for a money claim. Please advise on this.

The legal course and punishment of a police case for theft

Q: Hello. I met two Jewish guys in a hotel in 9.12.2020. I went to their room and after 30 minutes left. That evening, the police came to my house searching for money. They didn`t find it. We went to the police station and stayed until morning at the police station. Because there was not enough proof, they let me go. Please help me. That day I sent my money to my country 3200, can it be like proof against me? I touched the safety box in front of him but,only door, not pin cod entering the place, is it also a proof? They have a video like I am doing a sexual act, can it be used against me or he also can have problems? Please help with advice. In the corridor, I was putting money in my bag and running out of the room. What can I get for such a case? Deportation, jail, fine? Thank you very much.
