Before filing a case, whether it is a civil, labour or personal status, the UAE's court system facilitates alternative methods of dispute resolution through committees, which include:
These committees aim to solve disputes amicably and reduce the burden of judicial fees. If an amicable settlement is not possible, the litigating party can apply for a 'No objection' letter from the relevant mediation committee/centre and submit a statement of claim to the relevant court. Then, the case is filed to be seen by the judge in the respective Court of First Instance.
