Trusted legal consultants in Dubai for criminal, civil, family, property, labour and business cases. We speak Arabic, English, Urdu and Hindi — free consultation, response within 1 hour.
Mainland courts, DIFC, RDC, federal courts, Sharia courts — a lawyer who only knows one system cannot fully protect you. Ittihad Legal Consultants appears in all of them.
Most criminal, civil, family and labour cases go through the Dubai Courts system — First Instance, Court of Appeal, then Court of Cassation. All proceedings are in Arabic. Only licensed UAE advocates can represent you. We handle all three tiers.
The Dubai International Financial Centre follows English common law. Business contracts, international disputes and commercial cases can be filed in DIFC. Proceedings are in English. We have advocates qualified to appear in DIFC courts — rare among Dubai firms.
Dubai has a dedicated court for landlord-tenant disputes. The RDC handles eviction notices, rent increases above the allowed RERA cap, maintenance refusals and illegal rent deductions. We represent both landlords and tenants at all RDC stages.
Divorce, child custody, maintenance and inheritance for Muslim families are handled by Sharia-based Personal Status Courts. For non-Muslim expats, Dubai allows personal status matters to be governed by their home country law in certain circumstances. We advise on both paths.
Many cases in Dubai are resolved — or made significantly worse — at the police station or Public Prosecution stage, before they even reach a judge. A lawyer at this critical stage can prevent a charge from being filed, negotiate a settlement, or secure bail. We are available 24/7 for police station attendance in Dubai.
We assess your case for free and tell you exactly which forum applies, what your options are, and what it is likely to cost. No obligation.
