Our Dubai family lawyers can provide you with assistance in a wide range of family law matters, including:

Presumption of Paternity During Marriage

If you are married and have children, the law presumes that your husband is the father of your children. However, there may be times when this presumption is challenged. For example, if your husband is not biologically related to your child, he may request a paternity test to determine if he is the legal father.

If you are facing a paternity issue, our Dubai family lawyers can help you understand your legal rights and options. We can also assist you in obtaining a court order for a paternity test, if necessary.

Divorce

Divorce is the legal dissolution of a marriage. In Dubai, divorce can be initiated by either spouse at the Family Guidance Section of the Dubai Courts.

If you are considering divorce, our Dubai family lawyers can help you understand the process and what to expect.

As a husband, you have the right to file for divorce if your wife has violated her marital obligations. Violations can include anything from adultery to neglecting her household duties. If you divorce your wife on these grounds, you will not be required to pay her any financial compensation.

As a wife, you can file for divorce if your husband has violated his marital obligations. Violations can include anything from adultery to physical or emotional abuse. If you divorce your husband on these grounds, you may be entitled to financial compensation.

Whether your divorce is amicable or contested, we can help you through every step of the process.

Child Custody and Visitation

If you are divorcing or separating from your spouse, one of the most important issues to resolve is child custody. Child custody can be either legal or physical, and it can be shared between the parents or awarded to one parent.

In Dubai, child custody is generally awarded to the mother, unless there are extenuating circumstances. However, fathers are often given visitation rights. If you are seeking primary custody of your children, our Dubai family lawyers can help you present your case to the court.

If, on the other hand, you are the mother but wish to retain primary custody of your children, our Dubai family lawyers can also help you. We can provide you with the legal guidance and representation you need to ensure that your rights are protected.

Child Support

If you are divorced or separated from your spouse, you may be entitled to child support if you have primary custody of your children. Child support is a payment made by the non-custodial parent to the custodial parent to help with the costs of raising the children.

In Dubai, child support payments are generally calculated based on the income of the non-custodial parent. However, other factors such as the number of children and the parenting schedule may also be taken into account.

If you are owed child support, the experienced family lawyers at NA-Lawyers Advocates can help you collect the payments you are owed. We can also help you modify your child support order if your circumstances have changed.

Alimony

Alimony refers to payments made from one spouse to another after a divorce or separation. In Dubai, alimony is generally only awarded in cases where the marriage was long-term and the wife does not have an income.

NA-Lawyers Advocates understands that alimony can be a difficult issue to deal with. Our Dubai family lawyers can help you negotiate an alimony agreement with your spouse that is fair to both parties. We can also assist you in the enforcement or modification of an existing alimony order.
