Recovering what you are owed

Debt Recovery & Enforcement

We help creditors recover outstanding sums quickly and firmly — from the first formal demand through to enforcement before the competent U.A.E. courts.

Unpaid invoices, broken settlements and defaulting counterparties tie up cash flow and consume management time. Our recovery practice pairs commercial pragmatism with credible litigation pressure, so most matters are resolved before they ever reach a courtroom — and those that don’t are pursued to judgment and enforcement without hesitation.

We act for creators, founders, SMEs, free-zone companies and international clients pursuing debtors in the U.A.E. and abroad. Every engagement is led by senior counsel, on fixed and transparent terms agreed before we act.

What we advise on

How we help

Pre-action demands

Formal reminders, notices of default and final notices before proceedings, drafted to put you in the strongest position.

Settlement & payment plans

Negotiating instalments, discounts and structured settlements — with enforceable written terms.

Court proceedings

Recovery of principal, contractual interest, legal fees and costs before the competent U.A.E. courts.

Enforcement & attachment

Precautionary attachment, execution against assets and enforcement of judgments.

Cross-border recovery

Asset tracing and enforcement across jurisdictions where the debtor or assets sit abroad.

Our approach

A clear, three-step method

Assess & quantify

We review the contract, invoices and correspondence, quantify the debt and interest, and confirm the strongest route to recovery.

Demand & negotiate

We apply structured pressure through formal notices and negotiation, seeking full payment or an enforceable settlement.

Litigate & enforce

Where payment is not forthcoming, we issue proceedings and pursue judgment and enforcement without further delay.
