Physical Assault: General Overview of Case Filing Process in the UAE

Описание: Here is the general overview of the process for filing a case for physical assault in UAE courts:

Filing a Criminal Complaint: If you have been assaulted in the UAE, the first step is to file a complaint with the local police (Law enforcement officers). You must go to the nearest police station to report the incident and provide as much details and information as possible about the assailant, the location of the incident and witnesses if any. Once you file your complaint as per Article 36 of the Federal Law No. 38/2022 on the issuance of criminal procedure law “The law enforcement officers are to obtain clarifications and conduct the necessary inspection to facilitate the investigation of the facts that are reported to them or that they become aware of in any way, and they shall take all necessary precautionary measures to preserve the crime evidence.”

Medical Report: You will also need to obtain a medical report from a doctor or a hospital detailing the injuries that you have sustained, as a result of the assault. This may be submitted before the courts during the proceedings to support your case.

Legal Representation: If you decide to initiate legal proceedings against the assailant it is recommended that you seek legal representation. You must ensure that you seek legal representation from a UAE licensed lawyer.

Court Filing: The lawyer shall prepare a complaint and file it before the prosecution, and the prosecution may then subsequently transfer the matter to the criminal court after completing its investigation.

Trial Proceedings: The court will schedule a hearing and during the trial both the parties will be required to submit the evidence (evidence may include medical reports, witness etc..) and arguments to further support and strengthen your case.
