At eLegal Consultants, we understand that accidents, injuries, and wrongful actions can have life-altering consequences. Whether you’ve suffered physical harm, emotional distress, or financial losses due to someone else’s negligence or misconduct, you deserve fair compensation. Our Damages and Compensation service is designed to help individuals in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) navigate the legal complexities of claiming what is rightfully theirs under UAE law.
Understanding Damages and Compensation in the UAE
In the UAE, the concept of damages and compensation is rooted in both Civil Law (Federal Law No. 5 of 1985, the UAE Civil Code) and Personal Status Law, depending on the nature of the claim. Compensation is awarded to restore the injured party to the position they were in before the harm occurred, as much as possible.
Types of Damages Recognized Under UAE Law
Material Damages: These cover quantifiable financial losses, such as medical expenses, loss of income, property damage, and other out-of-pocket costs.
Moral Damages: These compensate for non-material harm, such as pain and suffering, emotional distress, or damage to reputation.
Future Damages: Compensation for ongoing or future losses, such as long-term medical care or loss of earning capacity.
Punitive Damages: In rare cases, courts may award punitive damages to deter the defendant from repeating the wrongful act.
Key Areas Where Compensation May Be Claimed
Personal Injury Claims: Accidents, workplace injuries, or medical malpractice.
Traffic Accidents: Compensation for injuries or fatalities caused by negligent driving.
Employment Disputes: Unlawful termination, unpaid wages, or workplace harassment.
Defamation and Reputation Damage: Claims for harm caused by false statements or public shaming.
Property Damage: Compensation for damage to personal or real property.
