The UAE has attracted billions worth of foreign investment since 2009. With over two-thirds of the setup corporations being in high-tech, food, and beauty. Dubai, in particular, has become one of the Gulf’s largest startup ecosystems, proving to be a very friendly environment for up-and-coming entrepreneurs. 

Some of the reasons include the city’s abundant youthful population, and low labour force costs as well as the country’s specialists who are not only knowledgeable of high-tech but also have a strong command of the English language. 

At Extrema Ratio, it is our mission to get your ideas out of the laboratory and off the drawing board and into a successfully running business entity.

Establishing a clear relationship at the outset can avoid disagreements in the future, as well as, the drafting of employment-related contracts such as termination of employment or dismissal agreements, management of employment-related disputes with employees or managers, set up of company work rules, codes of practice, and other internal policies of the employer, compensation and benefits contracts, and filing for work permits.

Dubai labour law is rather rigid and is not well adapted to the modern dynamic world. The employee is well protected in terms of termination, but the law also gives the employer many powers over the employee's time and activity. 

ESTABLISHMENT OF EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP: Here we will assist you with choosing the most suitable form of the employment relationship, help you in tailoring termination options, and/or remuneration system, as well as check the regularity of your work permit. 

TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT RELATIONSHIP: Dubai employees with employment contracts are well protected and can’t be fired without a specific reason. The legitimate reasons are in general organizational change, qualified breach of employee’s duty or health inability. Thus, we will assist you with the preparation of the termination notices, review of termination-related documents, and representation in lawsuits on unlawful termination of the employment relationship.

At Extrema Ratio, we also provide comprehensive advisory services in the field of family law. This includes prenuptial agreements, agreements regulating the matrimonial property regime, community property settlement agreements, divorce agreements, solution of the duty of maintenance and support between spouses or divorced spouses, preparation of agreements regarding childcare, including maintenance and support and contacts.

In the latter case, a matter, of course, is the settlement of community property, whether by way of an agreement or through an action filed at court. We also have considerable experience in the field of maintenance obligations between spouses or divorced spouses in Dubai.

CHILDCARE MATTERS, ALIMONY AND CHILD SUPPORT CLAIMS: We deal with childcare, maintenance, support, and contact with the child.
