How can Mohammed Suleiman Law Firm provide legal solutions to win a lawsuit or case?

With the development of the judicial system in the United Arab Emirates, personal status issues have gained special importance and attention from legal and legislative authorities, given their direct impact on the lives of individuals and the stability of families and society. Given the diverse nationalities and cultures in the country, the UAE has established a legal framework
Flexible and open, taking into account religious and social diversity, by applying national laws and, in some cases, allowing the application of foreign personal laws based on the nationality of the parties to the conflict.

In this context, the Mohammed Sulaiman Law Firm provides specialized and comprehensive legal services to enable individuals to win personal status cases through sound and effective legal means. The firm has extensive experience in dealing with UAE laws and related regulations, in addition to a thorough understanding of the humanitarian and social considerations specific to these cases.

First: What are personal status issues in the UAE?

Personal status cases include a group of legal disputes that arise between family members or are related to civil status. These cases are heard in personal status courts that are subject to the jurisdiction of Federal Law No. (28) of 2005 regarding personal status, which was later amended, with the addition of special laws for non-Muslim foreigners.

The most important types of personal status cases in the UAE:

• Marriage and its documentation(Emirati and foreign).
• Divorce, judicial separation, or Khula.
• All types of alimony (marital, children, parents).
• Custody, visitation and custody.
• Lineage and its proof or denial.
• Guardianship over one's life or money.
• Wills, inheritance, and division of estates.

Second: The legal environment of personal status in the UAE

The UAE is distinguished by its multiple legal frameworks that regulate personal status issues, including:

1. The Federal Personal Status Law applies to Muslim citizens and residents.

2. Foreigners have the right to request the application of their country’s law in certain cases, provided that official proof is provided.

3. Issuance of local laws specific to Abu Dhabi (such as the Civil Personal Status Law for Non-Muslims in 2021), which allows non-Muslim expatriates to conduct divorce and civil marriage without the need to apply Islamic Sharia law.

4. Flexibility in judicial procedures: Electronic courts and specialized courts have been provided to expedite the adjudication of cases.
