Ready to book?
Choose the lawyer, the day, the time and the way you want to consult in under a minute, and we confirm within one working hour.
How is end-of-service gratuity worked out?
It is usually based on the last basic salary and the years of service, provided you completed at least one year, under the federal Labour Law. We work it out with you at the consultation from your contract and payslips.
Do I start with a complaint or with the court?
In most labour disputes the first step is a complaint to the competent authority in the UAE, and the matter goes to court if it is not resolved. We explain the right route for your case and its usual timeframes.
My employer has not paid my salary for two months. What should I do?
Keep your bank statements and messages, and don’t leave the job before you talk to us; we explain your options and the best order of steps.
I run a small business. Can you help with contracts?
Yes. We draft simple, clear employment contracts and policies in both languages, and review your current contracts against the law.
These answers are general information, not legal advice; every case depends on its own details.
