Real Estate & Property Disputes in Dubai and the UAE


Introduction

Real estate is one of the most active sectors in Dubai and across the UAE. With this rapid growth, however, disputes are inevitable. Conflicts can arise between investors, developers, landlords, tenants, or homeowners’ associations.

At World Center Advocates, we provide trusted legal guidance in real estate disputes, helping our clients protect their rights and resolve conflicts through negotiation, arbitration, or litigation.

Types of Real Estate Disputes We Handle

  • Cancelled or Suspended Property Developments

    Following the global financial crisis and regulatory changes, many Dubai cancelled projects were suspended or terminated. We assist investors with claims before the Dubai Land Department (DLD), the Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA), and special settlement committees.

  • Rental & Lease Disputes
    Conflicts often arise regarding non-payment, eviction notices, rent increases, or breaches of lease agreements. We represent both landlords and tenants before the Dubai Rental Disputes Settlement Centre (RDSC).
     

  • Ownership & Title Disputes
    Disputed ownership rights, title deed errors, or inheritance-related property issues require legal clarity. Our team works to protect clients’ ownership rights under UAE property law.
     

  • Service Charge & Community Disputes
    Disagreements with developers or homeowners’ associations regarding service fees, maintenance charges, or community management are common. We help clients resolve these matters efficiently and lawfully.
