Country notes
United Arab Emirates
In many countries, filing at the highest court must be signed by a lawyer admitted before it. The lawyer will explain the filing route.
Court documents are prepared in Arabic. Each country (and in the UAE, each emirate or free-zone court) has its own forms, deadlines and filing portal; the lawyer adapts the document accordingly.
Documents in other languages may need a certified legal translation before they can be filed. Government, court, translation and notary fees are not included and are paid separately at cost.

FAQs
Is cassation available in every case?+
No. Some cases are below the value threshold or excluded by law. The lawyer checks admissibility first.
Does filing stop enforcement?+
Usually not automatically; a separate request to stay enforcement may be possible.
What if I don’t have every document on the list?+
Upload what you have. The lawyer will tell you what is essential and what can be described instead; the delivery time starts once the essentials are received.
Are court or government fees included?+
No. The package covers the lawyer’s work only. Any court, government, translation or notary fees are paid separately at cost.
