Now, let’s look at how to file an appeal after judgment in the UAE.

The UAE court system is divided into: the Court of First Instance, the Court of Appeal, and the Court of Cassation. When you approach the courts for litigation, your case is handed to the first level in the court system - the Court of First Instance. If you are unsatisfied with the judgment passed here, you can appeal the verdict in the Court of Appeal. Some legal conditions and criteria govern if and how to take this step. At this stage, it is best to hire a legal team who knows the ins and outs of the UAE judicial system, and this is where the expertise of BR Law Firm’s lawyers shines through.

Our appeal lawyers are knowledgeable of the complexity of filing appeals. If the conviction passed by the Court of Appeal is still unsatisfactory, you can appeal it at the final court, the Court of Cassation. Case verdicts cannot be challenged further: any judgements passed by the Court of Cassation are final. There are timelines, due processes, fees, documentation, and grounds for appeal that need to be followed to the letter for a successful appeal. Since this can be challenging for laymen, our appeal lawyers can guide you on the best course of action.
