New Dubai Court Building

Uncategorized

Each year, over 100,000 divorces takes place in Dubai. Due to the huge amount of the cases and importance of family, a new facility is built to handle family matters and will start working from October 12,2016. This court is allocated only for family matter including divorce, legal separation, child custody, visitation, support, and property division.

Dubai government is planning to separate the labor court from the main court in future.

Divorce Decree

A new procedure has been implemented for issuance of the divorce decree,
If there is a judgement or court order for the separation then one of the party must attend the court – Muslim personal status section with their witnesses in order to receive their divorce decree.

But however, if you are non Muslim and you already have your divorce judgment in your hand but still aren’t able to have divorce degree from UAE Shariaa court, the original judgment can be dully attested and used in your home country.

Old Dated Cheques

Uncategorized

Many businessmen in Dubai might have many old dated cheques which are expired and kept for long time without taking any actions.Of course you already know that the cheque will be expire after 6 months from the date of issuance and the banks will not accept the aforesaid cheque to be deposited in your accounts any more.

In this situation you have the following options:

  • Request the cheque’s signatory to change the date of your cheque
  • Settle the matter amicably ;

Or

  • Proceed with a civil case to recover your cheque amount. If the cheque is not bounced, you cannot file a criminal case with subject or returned cheque unless you do have an additional document against the person to prove that they’re guilty as a criminal.

Financial Crisis 

Uncategorized

These days we are receiving many inquiries in respect of the labor matter from our clients. They are different in details but most of them common in one subject which is ‘”I received the termination letter due to financial crisis”.I therefore would like to highlight the fact that termination due to financial crises is not defined by the labor law and this will be consider as an arbitrary dismissalspecially if the employee and employer are involved and obliged by limited contract.

Compensation of arbitrary dismissal is only desecration of the judge however as per the federal labor law of UAE, the employee is entitled to claim 3 months of his salary including his allowance as a compensation.
