How can we sue an e-commerce company for providing nonworking items?
Q: Hi! How can we sue an e-commerce company for providing nonworking items that were supposed to be installed, but didn`t? They keep telling about hours, but nothing is done. The item is dangerous and can lead to lethal consequences as technicians say. I filed a case in Dubai consumer rights, but I guess nothing will be done. Maybe the court is the only solution?

An employer breaches his obligations with an employee. What to do?
Q: Hello, I am 24 years old girl. I am an interior designer. It`s almost four months since I came to work in Dubai. I have two months of salary arrears and when I inquired about it, the Indian owner scolded me threateningly and told me not to bother him again. Then he told me not to come to work until his wife calls me again. Even after two weeks, I was not told to come back to the company, and when I asked about it, the owner repeatedly asked me not to ask. I came to this company because this owner gave this offer when I was in my country. One of my friends introduced me to this company owner, but now after I came here, this owner is treating me badly. Can I know how to handle this, because if I got fired from this company, it is not good for my future career path. Questions & Answers

The borrower has given a cheque while the bank account is closed. What to do?
Q: Hello, When I finished my prayer and was leaving the mosque, an individual approached me and asked me to drive him to a near destination. On the way, he told me that he has financial difficulties and his sick wife needs a flight ticket to travel. He kept mentioning: "I’m not a beggar and I have a business". He showed me his valid visa and offered to give me a cheque to ensure that he’ll pay me back. It has been around a month and he is not paying me back. He also said that his account is closed so the cheque won’t work. I’m not sure what to do now? Should I check the cheque and if it bounces, what do I need to do next? Your help is appreciated! I also have all the chat history to back my claims. Questions & Answers

إلزام الشريك بتحمُّل مسؤولياته تجاه الالتزامات المالية للشركة
س: السلام عليكم، سؤالي عن الديون المالية التي ترتبت على أحد الشركاء في مؤسسة ذات مسؤولية محدودة. كان الهدف من الديون وقيمتها 200 ألف درهم تأسيس الشركة. الشركة بها شخصين (شركاء)؛ الشريك الأول أعطى شيك ضمان مقابل الدين للدائن. استولى الشريك الثاني على مدخول الشركة وأبدى عدم استعداده للتعاون مع الشريك الأول لتسديد الالتزامات المترتبة على الشركة، بالإضافة إلى حكم من لجنة فض المنازعات الإيجارية بدفع قيمة إيجار سنة على الشركة. كل ذلك يتحمله الشريك الأول حاليًا لأنه هو الذي قام بالاقتراض ووقّع عقد الإيجار مع المؤجر. قام الشريك الأول بإلغاء الرخصة التجارية بعد صدور حكم المحكمة بالتنفيذ لسداد قيمة شيك الضمان، وإلغاء الرخصة تم بعد صدور حكم لجنة فض المنازعات بفرض قيمة الإيجار على الشركة. كيف يمكن للشريك الأول تقاسم هذه الأحكام والمقدّرة بـ 300 ألف درهم مع الشريك الثاني المتهرب من جميع تلك الالتزامات؟ وهل يمكن السير في إجراءات تصفية الشركة بعد إلغاء الرخصة التجارية؟ وهل يمكن إيقاف إجراءات تنفيذ قضية الشيك (الدين) لحين الانتهاء من تصفية الشركة؟ وشكرًا لكم!

Living in Dubai since 2015 as she was based in Dubai and then in Nov of the year 2016, a child was born and she moved back to Greece.

As the marriage was solemnized and registered in Delhi under the Christian marriage act in India and this document was invalid to grant me a divorce. Hence, in 2019, I filed a case in Delhi seeking divorce against the ex-parte decision received also contesting the grounds of divorce granted. Since then, the lawyer in Delhi has sent three notices through registered post on WhatsApp asking the respondent to be present, however, no response was received.
