Understanding Litigation in the UAE
Litigation is defined as the process of taking a dispute before a court of law for determination by looking into evidence presented before the judge or jury to arrive at a legal decision. In the UAE, litigation is governed by both the principles of civil law and Islamic Sharia law. The UAE’s legal framework is very comprehensive and provides laws concerning most disputes related to commercial, civil, criminal, labor, and family cases.
Dispute Resolution Methods
Excluding litigation, alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods are an effective way of settling disputes outside courts at a very low cost compared to litigation expenses. Basically, there exist three categories into which ADR methods may be divided: arbitration, mediation, and negotiation.
Mediation
Mediation is the process through which, with the help of a third party called the mediator, the two parties in the dispute communicate in such a manner that the result, in the form of an agreement, is mutually agreeable and acceptable. The process is purely voluntary and confidential; it maintains relationships. Our mediation experts guide the parties toward amicable settlements that involve saving time and resources.
Arbitration
Arbitration is a private dispute resolution process in which parties agree to submit their dispute to one or more arbitrators who make binding decisions. The UAE is a signatory to the New York Convention, and hence, every arbitral award shall be recognized and can be enforced globally. The lawyers at our firm have gained valuable experience in representing clients in many arbitration proceedings under various regulations, including those of the Dubai International Arbitration Centre (DIAC) and the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC).
Negotiation
Negotiation means that the parties to the dispute sit down, discuss, and solve their disputes without any interference from third-party people. Our lawyers are experts in negotiation and work hard to bring out the best possible result for our clients by adopting appropriate and persuasive strategies of negotiation.
