Abu Dhabi to start specialised courts as part of legal overhaul
The specialised courts will review family lawsuits and other civil cases including rental disputes
Abu Dhabi is starting specialised courts focused on family, administrative and civil matters as part of an overhaul of its legal system.
The specialised courts will review family lawsuits and other civil cases including rental disputes, the country’s official news agency said, citing a decision by Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the head of the emirate’s Judicial Department.
Abu Dhabi is trying to reduce pressure on the emirate’s existing courts by moving disputes to others better equipped to deal with them, and ensuring cases are dealt with faster and more efficiently.
