Real Estate Lawyers
At Ahmed Alramsy advocates, our real estate lawyers team delivers professional, efficient, and confidential legal support — helping buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants, and investors protect their rights in property transactions, RDC tenancy matters, and real estate disputes across Dubai.
Overview of Our Legal Real State services
Our team of experienced real estate lawyers in Dubai and internationally trained specialists provides comprehensive legal support across all aspects of property law in the UAE. As a leading real estate law firm in Dubai, we assist individuals, investors, developers, and corporations in managing transactions, resolving disputes, and protecting their property interests under UAE and Dubai real estate regulations.
Our real estate legal services include:
Advising on residential and commercial property sales, purchases, and off-plan transactions.
Drafting and reviewing sale agreements, lease contracts, MOUs, and development agreements.
Representing clients in real estate disputes before Dubai Courts, DIFC, and rental dispute committees.
Handling landlord–tenant matters, evictions, rent disputes, and contract termination.
Conducting title verification, due diligence, and regulatory compliance checks.
Advising on real estate development projects, joint ventures, and investment structures.
Enforcement of judgments, recovery of property rights, and asset protection strategies.
Our approach is practical, precise, and focused on securing your investment and ensuring legally sound property transactions in the UAE.
What Our Real Estate Services Cover?
1. Real Estate Transactions
We advise on the full range of Dubai property transactions, including buying and selling residential and commercial property, investment acquisitions, leasing arrangements, and transactional support for developers and corporate owners. We help you protect value by reviewing and negotiating contracts, conducting due diligence and risk checks, preparing transaction documentation, and guiding the matter through to completion—aligned with the UAE Civil Transactions Law and the practical requirements of the Dubai Land Department (DLD) and RERA.
2. Land Use, Planning, and Regulatory Approvals
Real estate projects can stall when planning or approval requirements are missed. We advise clients on land use, planning constraints, and required approvals, and we support businesses and investors when projects require municipality clearances, land authority approvals, or regulatory alignment. Our role is to reduce the risk of delays, rejections, or non-compliance by ensuring your documents and process are legally sound before commitments are made.
3. Real Estate Development and Construction Support
We support clients across the development and construction lifecycle—from early-stage structuring and documentation to delivery and dispute management. Our team assists with construction and development contracts, contractor and consultant terms, project documentation, and claims planning. Where disputes arise, we act on delay and payment claims, variations, termination risks, and handover/defects disputes, using a strategy built around documents, evidence, and enforceability.
5. Real Estate Financing and Mortgage Support
We advise buyers, investors, and businesses on mortgage and financing documentation, lender conditions, repayment and default exposure, and practical completion requirements such as release letters and settlement coordination. Our role is to ensure financing terms are clearly understood, legally controlled, and aligned with your transaction timetable—so financing does not become the point of failure at closing.
4. Commercial Leasing and Tenancy Matters (RDC)
We draft, review, and negotiate commercial leases for offices, retail premises, and industrial facilities, acting for both landlords and tenants. We structure lease terms to protect your operational and financial position and help you manage issues such as rent increases, renewal/non-renewal, maintenance obligations, and breach/default scenarios. Where disputes escalate, we prepare the file and represent clients in Dubai tenancy disputes before the Rental Dispute Settlement Centre (RDC)—with careful focus on valid notices, evidence, and enforceable outcomes.
6. Real Estate Disputes, Litigation, and Arbitration
When a property dispute threatens your funds, title, or possession, we move quickly to protect your legal position. We represent clients in disputes involving breach of contract, ownership and title issues, developer disputes, construction claims, and landlord–tenant conflicts. Where resolution is possible, we pursue structured negotiation and settlement. Where enforcement is required, our UAE-licensed advocates are prepared to represent you before the appropriate UAE forums and, where the contract provides, through arbitration—with a strategy focused on evidence, procedure, and enforceability.

What is UAE Real Estate Law?
Real estate matters in the UAE are governed by a combination of federal laws and Emirate-specific regulations, with Dubai operating its own detailed legal framework for property ownership, development, leasing, and dispute resolution. At the federal level, real estate contracts and obligations are underpinned by the UAE Civil Transactions Law, which governs validity, interpretation, breach, and remedies.
In Dubai, property rights and transactions are further regulated through legislation issued and administered by the Dubai Land Department (DLD) and the Real Estate Regulatory Authority (RERA). These laws cover areas such as property registration, off-plan sales and escrow accounts, leasing relationships, jointly owned properties (strata), and developer obligations. Landlord–tenant disputes are generally handled by the Rental Dispute Settlement Centre (RDC) under Dubai’s rental laws, while ownership and contractual disputes may proceed before the Dubai courts or arbitration, depending on the agreement.
Understanding how these federal principles interact with Dubai-specific regulations is critical, as non-compliance can affect enforceability, registration, and legal remedies. This is why real estate matters in the UAE require advice that is both legally accurate and procedurally aligned with the competent authorities.

Our Legal Real Estate Services Process
Review the contract to identify risk, negotiate protective terms, secure required documents and approvals, then complete transfer or closing in the correct legal sequence.
Avoid paying or signing where contracts allow open-ended discretion, weak handover or defect rights, one-sided penalties, unclear termination, or mismatched jurisdiction clauses.
Do not proceed where approvals, registrations, or escrow requirements are missing, payment milestones are not tied to progress, or side promises are not written into the contract.
For leasing matters, confirm lease obligations early, prepare legally valid notices, and position the case correctly before any RDC filing or response.
In landlord–tenant disputes, build the file around evidence and procedure to achieve settlement or enforceable RDC outcomes.
For developer, construction, or ownership disputes, organise evidence, select the proper forum, take early protective steps, and pursue resolution or enforcement.

Insights
Legal Real Estate Services- Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a real estate lawyer to buy property in Dubai?
A lawyer helps identify risk, rebalance terms, and ensure compliance before funds are committed—often preventing far greater losses later.
What should I check before signing an SPA or off-plan agreement?
Termination rights, penalties, handover standards, payment triggers, jurisdiction, and developer discretion—plus approvals and registration status.
Where are landlord–tenant disputes decided in Dubai?
Most tenancy disputes are handled by the Rental Disputes Centre (RDC), with strict rules on notices and evidence.
Can foreign investors buy property in Dubai? What checks matter?
Yes, subject to designated areas and compliance checks. Title, escrow, and contract terms are critical.
What is the role of escrow in off-plan purchases?
Escrow arrangements protect buyer payments and are central to compliance and remedies.
What documents should I prepare before meeting a property lawyer?
Bring your contract, notices, payment proof, and a brief timeline—this speeds assessment.
What’s the difference between a property lawyer and a broker?
A broker facilitates a deal; a lawyer protects your legal position and enforceability.
How long do RDC cases usually take?
Timelines vary, but valid notices and organized evidence significantly shorten proceedings.
Can a buyer cancel an off-plan contract and claim a refund?
It depends on the contract, compliance status, and evidence. Each case requires careful assessment.
Do you handle mortgages, construction disputes, and arbitration?
Yes. We advise across financing, construction, and dispute resolution pathways.
