Customer's reviews

I recently worked with Gulf Advocates, and I was genuinely impressed by the quality of their legal services. The team was professional, easy to talk to, and took the time to understand my situation. They explained everything clearly, kept me updated, and handled things efficiently from start to finish. If you're looking for a reliable and experienced law firm in Dubai, I highly recommend Gulf Advocates. ~ GMB T
Great support and independent advice (i.e., not conflicted and very honest), and most importantly a very human team. If your situation does not deserve “lawyering up” they will tell you upfront, and not try, as others may do, take money from you. They know the legal system very well, and have a long-standing track-record and experience, as such, they can provide an accurate risk assessment of the situation. Highly recommended! ~ OJ
Amazing firm, and very professional advice. I had a dispute with real estate agents and their great professionalism and knowledge helped me through the process. I didn't even have to hire them and they managed to help me through a quick consultation. Definitely recommend and whenever I will have a dispute and need a lay firm to represent me ill choose Gulf Advocates! ~ Rafał R

Questions & Answers

Can you handle banking and financial disputes?
Yes, we specialize in handling banking and financial disputes effectively.
Do you provide assistance in drafting legal documents?
Yes, we can provide assistance in drafting legal documents, including those relevant to the UAE jurisdiction. For matters such as drafting property contracts, partnership agreements, and other investment-related documents, it is advisable to consult experienced lawyers in Dubai or a Dubai lawyer with specialized expertise in UAE law. Legal professionals with over years of experience in the UAE can ensure that your documents comply with local regulations, such as those governed by the Dubai Land Department (for property contracts) or the UAE Civil Code (for partnership and investment agreements). While I can offer general guidance and templates, it is crucial to have a qualified Dubai lawyer review and finalize any legal document to ensure its enforceability and alignment with UAE laws. For complex matters like property transactions, partnership agreements, or investment contracts, engaging a legal expert with a strong understanding of UAE jurisdiction is highly recommended.
Can expatriates file civil cases in UAE courts?
Yes, expatriates can file civil cases in UAE courts for issues such as contract disputes, tenancy disagreements, and more. The Federal Law No. 11 of 1992 on Civil Procedures outlines steps and jurisdiction for civil cases.
What legal protections exist for women seeking divorce in the UAE?
Women can file for divorce under Federal Law No. 28 of 2005 if they can prove harm or other valid reasons for separation (Article 117). They may also seek "Khula" (divorce initiated by the wife) under certain conditions but may need to return their dowry.
How do UAE laws approach domestic violence in family cases?
Domestic violence cases fall under the scope of both criminal and personal status laws. The Federal Law No. 10 of 2019 on Protection from Domestic Violence provides for penalties and protection orders, aiming to safeguard victims' rights and well-being.
