Yes. You do not need to live in the UAE to hire a UAE lawyer. Many of the people we help live in the USA, UK and Europe, and your first consultation is free by phone, WhatsApp or email.

Yes. We check whether a UAE travel ban exists using your passport number, so you can find out before you book a flight. If a ban exists, we explain the steps to have it resolved.

Yes. Our lawyers prepare a formal legal notice within 2 to 3 working days and negotiate with the debtor by email while you stay abroad. If the debt is still not paid, we move to legal action.

Yes. Foreign nationals and expatriates, including people who no longer live in the UAE, can file a case in Dubai and be represented by a UAE lawyer. The process depends on the type of case and your residency status, which we walk you through during your consultation.

Costs depend on the complexity of the matter, whether it settles or goes to litigation, and which practice area is involved. Your first consultation is free, and we provide a clear cost estimate after an initial case review, so you know what to expect before committing to anything.

It depends on the type of case and whether it is resolved through negotiation, arbitration, or full litigation. Straightforward steps can move quickly; for example, a formal legal notice in a debt matter is usually ready within 2 to 3 working days. Contested cases take longer, and we give you a realistic estimate once we have reviewed your case.

In many cases, yes. Negotiation, mediation, and arbitration are often faster and more private than litigation. We generally explore these routes first where they serve your interests, and reserve litigation for when a resolution cannot be reached another way.

Look for a UAE-licensed firm whose lawyers work in English, that gives you a clear cost estimate before you commit, and that has handled your type of case before. If you live abroad, also ask how the firm keeps you updated across time zones and what can be handled while you stay where you are.
