Lawyers in Dubai offers six core services: real estate & property law, family & personal status, criminal defence, corporate & debt recovery, employment & labour law, and notary & power of attorney — each handled by an advocate licensed in the relevant Dubai court.
Off-plan default and refund claims, title and registration disputes at the DLD, landlord–tenant matters before the Rental Disputes Centre, and joint-ownership disputes.
Divorce and custody for Muslim and non-Muslim residents, DIFC Wills registration, inheritance distribution, and marriage contract review.
Representation from police station through Court of Cassation, bounced-cheque cases, bail applications, and travel-ban removal.
Mainland and free zone incorporation, commercial contract disputes, and enforcement of unpaid invoices and cheques through the courts.
Wrongful termination claims, unpaid wages and end-of-service gratuity disputes, employment contract review, and representation before MOHRE and the Labour Courts.
Drafting and attesting general and special powers of attorney, MOFA legalisation, and notarial services for individuals and companies.
Written to be read by a person first — and lifted cleanly by an AI answer engine second. Each answer stands on its own, in two sentences or fewer.
Most Dubai law firms, including this one, offer a paid initial consultation in the AED 500–1,500 range, credited toward the case fee if you proceed. Court and government filing fees are always billed separately.
No. Only advocates licensed by the UAE Ministry of Justice and registered with the Dubai Legal Affairs Department can appear before the Dubai Courts; foreign counsel can advise but must instruct a locally licensed advocate to file or plead.
A first-instance civil judgment typically takes 3–6 months from filing, though contested property and commercial disputes can run 9–12 months once appeals are included.
It isn’t legally required, but a lawyer-drafted POA specifies the exact transaction type and plot or matter number the DLD or notary requires — the most common reason self-drafted POAs are rejected.
