Can a husband and a wife legalize a child birth if it is from extramarital relationship?
Q: With the recent changes in the UAE law regarding children conceived out of wedlock, I wonder how this would affect a theoretical scenario. The scenario is as follows. Let`s assume that a happily married couple, residing in Dubai with resident visas from the husband`s company, come to know that the wife is pregnant as a result of a foolish and regrettable affair with a third party. Assuming both the husband and wife agree to continue the pregnancy and the husband agrees to acknowledge and adopt the child after birth and that their medical insurance covers private birth in the UAE, what are the legal considerations around this process? The husband is British and his wife is Philipino. Any input would be appreciated. Questions & Answers

كيف تحكم المحكمة في دعوى متخصصة بدون طلب انتداب خبير؟
س: السلام عليكم، أخلّ أحد طرفي التعاقد ببنود العقد وكان الاتفاق على أنه في حالة الإخلال يُطبَّق شرط جزائي محدد بالإضافة إلى مطالبة الفريق المتضرر للفريق المخل بالتعويض المناسب. في المحكمة عندما يرفع الفريق المتضرر دعوى ويطالب فيها بتعويض مادي ما - بحسب تقديره - وتُحجز المحكمة الدعوى للحكم، كيف للمحكمة أن تعرف عند إصدار حكمها إذا ما كان هذا الرقم هو فعلاً مناسب أم مبالغ فيه طالما أنه رقم تقديري من قبل الفريق المتضرر ناتج عن خسائر لعمل فني تلفزيوني؟ في هذه الحالة المحكمة ليست على علم بالأمور الفنية وحيثياتها ولم يقم أي من طرفي التداعي بطلب انتداب خبير؛ بل كلاهما طلبا حجز الدعوى للحكم وقد حُجزت للحكم بالفعل. كيف تتصرف المحكمة في هذه الحالة؟ Questions & Answers

The license required for an affiliate marketing website
Q: Dear sir/madam, I want to start doing affiliate marketing where I will run YouTube ads. Interested users can then land on my website to enter their names and email address. I can then do email marketing. I also plan to use Pinterest to help build my list. I am not paid to advertise or share content, I only get paid if people make a purchase through my link. 1. Do I need to have a license in order to do this legally in Abu Dhabi, UAE? I am aware that several licenses exist, which license is suitable for this activity? 2. Is a privacy policy adhering to international data protection laws like GDPR sufficient to protect me from lawsuits in the UAE, or does the UAE have specific requirements? If I get a template from a lawyer that is not in the UAE, is that sufficient? 3. Do you think the free privacy policy templates available online are good to avoid lawsuits for the activity I intend to do? Thank you very much! Questions & Answers

Loan settlement with the bank in the UAE to stop harassment by collection agency
Q: Hi I am from India and I left the UAE in 2020 with a personal loan outstanding of 300k due to my job issues, I am in the UK currently for the past 2 years.
