Buying Property in Dubai — Legal Essentials
Before any Dubai property purchase, a legal review of the SPA, title deed verification with the Dubai Land Department, and due diligence on the developer are essential steps. For off-plan purchases, confirming RERA developer registration and escrow account compliance under Law No. 8 of 2007 is critical to protecting your investment against developer default or delay.
Rental Disputes in Dubai
The Dubai Rental Dispute Centre (RDC) handles landlord-tenant disputes efficiently through an accessible online portal. Our advocates file and argue RDC cases covering security deposit recovery, unlawful eviction, rental increase disputes in excess of the RERA rental index, and maintenance obligation failures.
