Whether the harm was done in person, in writing, or online, our civil litigation team helps individuals and businesses protect their reputation and pursue the compensation the law allows.
Protecting individuals and businesses from false statements, under both UAE civil law and the Cybercrime Law.
False statements published on social media, messaging apps, or websites — pursued under the UAE Cybercrime Law and general civil liability for harm.
Responding to false or malicious online reviews that misrepresent facts, including cease-and-desist notices and platform takedown requests.
Protecting companies from false statements made by competitors, former employees, or third parties that damage commercial reputation or client relationships.
Addressing false statements made by or about employees, colleagues, or business partners that affect a person's professional standing.
Filing criminal complaints where defamatory conduct meets the threshold for prosecution, alongside or instead of a civil claim.
Formal notices demanding retraction or removal of defamatory content, often the fastest way to stop ongoing harm before litigation.
Defamation cases are won or lost on evidence. We start by helping you preserve the defamatory content — screenshots, witness statements, correspondence — before it can be deleted or disputed, then assess whether a civil claim, a criminal complaint, or both are the right course of action.
Where speed matters most, we can issue a cease-and-desist notice or platform takedown request within days, while we prepare the fuller claim for compensation or, where appropriate, a criminal complaint.
