The free legal advice now means no one is prevented from pursuing their rights merely because of the possibility they might be priced out of the system.
Dubai: The new free legal service to support people embroiled in real estate-related court cases has emerged as a fair way to protect the interests of Dubai's real estate community.
"The objective of this initiative is not merely to meet a need but to ensure fairness and justice is available to anyone who might have a concern involving property, no matter what the circumstances are," Mohammad Sultan Thani, assistant director general of the Land Department, told Gulf News.
The free legal advice now means no one is prevented from pursuing their rights merely because of the possibility they might be priced out of the system.
"The offer of free legal advice is another step in the right direction from Rera [Real Estate Regulatory Authority] as it looks to improve transparency in the Dubai market. Overall confidence in the legal dispute system has been low due to a time-lag in addressing the current backlog. This announcement will go some way in renewing faith in the system," said Matthew Green, head of research and consultancy firm CB Richard Ellis.
One of the local law firms involved in the initiative is Hadef and Partners. Michael Lunjevich, partner at the firm, told Gulf News that "justice for all" is the objective behind the initiative.
