Evidence and document review
Our review covers contract, wage-arrears schedule, payment demands, employer replies, proposed resignation and any complaint reference. We identify what supports your position and what needs clarification or further evidence.
Does every UAE dismissal qualify for three months' compensation?
No. Article 47 addresses dismissal because of a serious MOHRE complaint or a lawsuit against the employer proven valid; its compensation ceiling is not an automatic award for every termination. Ordinary contractual notice under Article 43 is 30–90 days. Notice allowance, unpaid entitlements and an Article 47 claim are separate questions. Confirm the federal private-sector regime applies; probation and termination without notice have different requirements. Document the unpaid periods and previous demands, then assess notice, the proposed resignation wording and its consequences before leaving. Wage arrears and the way employment ends are separate issues; non-payment should not be assumed to remove every procedural requirement.
