R / Position / Assess / Intervene

When a tenancy stops being routine and becomes a dispute.

For landlords with tenants who have stopped paying or won’t hand back the keys. For tenants with landlords holding deposits, ignoring maintenance, or pushing increases that don’t add up.

One side only

We act for landlords, and we act for tenants — but only ever for one side of a matter. Every enquiry is conflict-checked before we read a single document.

Situations we take

Six situations this desk is built for.

Rent arrears and bounced cheques.
Renewal and rent-increase disputes.
Deposit retention and recovery.
Maintenance, access and use of the property.
Notice, termination and possession.
Residential or commercial lease breakdowns.

Why pre-legal, here

Most tenancy disputes are worth less than the fight.

The Rental Dispute Centre exists, and sometimes it is the right answer — we will tell you when it is. But filing costs money, takes months, and hardens a relationship that sometimes still has to continue. For most tenancies, a private intervention costs less than the filing fee alone.

A measured, written approach — the chronology assembled, the position stated once and properly — often moves a tenancy dispute in weeks. And if it doesn’t, you arrive at the RDC with a file, not a shoebox.

Assessment

AED 1,499

We review the tenancy contract, Ejari, notices, payment record and correspondence, and give you a written recommended route — including “go to the RDC” or “let this one go,” if that’s the honest answer.

03

Private intervention

AED 2,499 + VAT, flat

A defined mandate: verified chronology, a formal position put to the other side, structured rounds of written contact, a record of every reply, and a clear resolve-or-escalate decision at the end.

Open the matter
Separate costsRDC fees, translation, notary, expert and licensed-counsel costs are separate — and agreed with you before a dirham is spent.

Straight answers

Before you open a rental matter.

Do you act for landlords or tenants?

Both — but never both sides of the same matter, and never without a conflict check first.

The other side ignores everything. What’s the point?

That is precisely what the written record is for. Silence in the face of a documented, reasonable position is itself evidence — and it shortens the road if the matter has to go formal.

What if it needs the RDC or a lawyer?

Then we say so — at the assessment stage if it’s already clear, or at the decision point if engagement fails. You go formal with the file built.

Private intake

Request a callback.

Leave your details and we’ll come back to you directly, and quickly, on whether this is something we can realistically help with. Sending this form does not start an engagement.
