Trusted legal counsel for family and personal status law.
Family law is extremely important in Dubai. It governs many aspects relating to custody, divorce, parental responsibilities and more. In the UAE, family law is primarily used to govern non-muslim families. Muslim families in Dubai are governed by personal status law.
Hamdan Al Shamsi Lawyers & Legal Consultants are experts in all aspects of personal status and family law. Our family lawyers have years of experience offering a comprehensive suite of legal services.
The aim of the personal status law is to allow more cohesion and promote fairer resolutions for families. Family law in the UAE utilizes Sharia law, but also focuses on individual rights and ensuring the best interests of children are met.
