FAQ's

Family Law FAQs

Child custody in the UAE is determined based on the best interests of the child. This involves evaluating factors such as the child's age, health, and emotional well-being. Typically, mothers are granted custody of younger children, while fathers may gain custody of older children. The court considers the child's welfare above all else.
To file for divorce, you must first register a case at the Family Guidance Committee, which attempts reconciliation. If reconciliation fails, the case proceeds to court. Grounds for divorce include harm, non-fulfillment of marital duties, and incompatibility. Legal representation is essential to navigate the process and protect your rights.
Inheritance in the UAE is governed by Sharia law for Muslims, which specifies fixed shares for heirs. Non-Muslims can opt to follow the laws of their home country, provided it does not conflict with UAE public policy. It's crucial to have legal advice to ensure proper distribution of assets according to the applicable laws.
