Commercial
Rental And Property Disputes
At MAK Partners & Legal Consultants, we provide specialised legal representation and advisory services for rental and property disputes across the UAE. Our practice is focused on strategic dispute resolution, enforcement, and risk mitigation, representing both landlords and tenants in residential and commercial property matters.
Rental disputes in the UAE are governed by a combination of federal legislation, emirate-specific tenancy laws, and procedural rules, making early legal intervention critical. Missteps—such as improper notice, non-compliant termination, or failure to respond to proceedings—can result in financial loss, adverse judgments, enforcement actions, or travel restrictions.
Our role is to ensure that our clients’ rights are lawfully asserted, procedurally protected, and effectively enforced.
Commercial Disputes
At MAK Partners & Legal Consultants, we provide strategic legal representation and advisory services for commercial disputes across the UAE, supporting businesses, shareholders, investors, and individuals in high-value and complex conflicts. We focus on early risk assessment, decisive dispute resolution, and robust enforcement, aiming to control disputes early, position clients advantageously, and pursue outcomes that are legally enforceable and commercially sensible. Our services cover a wide range of disputes, including breach of commercial contracts, payment and receivables issues, shareholder and partnership conflicts, agency and distribution disputes, supply chain failures, misrepresentation claims, and termination disputes. We handle pre-litigation assessment and negotiation, litigation and arbitration in UAE courts and tribunals, and judgment enforcement, including asset attachment and recovery. Additionally, we provide preventive advisory services—such as contract vetting, governance and exit planning—to reduce litigation exposure and strengthen enforcement positions. Our approach ensures disputes are managed strategically, procedurally soundly, and with a focus on protecting business value and reputation.
Intellectual Property
At MAK Partners & Legal Consultants, we provide comprehensive legal advisory and enforcement services relating to intellectual property (IP) in the UAE. Our practice is focused on the protection, commercialisation, and enforcement of intellectual assets, ensuring that clients retain control over their brands, creative works, and proprietary rights in an increasingly competitive marketplace.
In the UAE, intellectual property is governed by a robust statutory framework, but failure to secure, register, or enforce IP rights at the correct stage can result in loss of exclusivity, commercial dilution, and costly infringement disputes. Our role is to ensure that intellectual property rights are legally secured, commercially exploited, and aggressively defended where necessary.
Consumer Protection
MAK Partners & Legal Consultants offers comprehensive legal advisory and representation in UAE consumer protection matters, assisting businesses, traders, service providers, and consumers with regulatory compliance, complaint management, and dispute resolution. The UAE’s consumer protection framework imposes strict obligations on suppliers regarding disclosure, pricing, warranties, quality, and after-sales service, and non-compliance can result in penalties, licence suspension, and reputational harm. MAK Partners helps businesses with contract and terms review, compliance audits, advertising and warranty obligations, and strategic responses to consumer complaints and regulatory investigations, while also representing clients in administrative proceedings, compensation disputes, product liability claims, and litigation. The firm also advises consumers on asserting their rights in cases of defective goods, unfair practices, or misrepresentation, ensuring claims are effectively enforced and disputes are resolved with minimal exposure and maximum legal protection.
Debt Collection
At MAK Partners & Legal Consultants, we offer strategic, results-driven debt collection and recovery services across the UAE, helping businesses, financial institutions, landlords, and individuals recover outstanding debts through lawful and enforceable mechanisms. We follow a structured, phased approach—starting with pre-litigation demand and negotiation, progressing to litigation when necessary, and focusing on effective judgment enforcement and execution, including asset attachment and salary garnishment. Our services also cover travel ban applications, corporate and commercial debt recovery, and preventive advisory to strengthen contracts and credit controls. By ensuring strict compliance with UAE procedural and evidentiary rules, we aim to maximize recovery, minimize time and cost, preserve commercial relationships where possible, and protect clients from legal risks associated with improper debt recovery actions.
