Why this costs less than a firm
- A fixed fee, never billable hours
- You buy a defined output at a price agreed before we start. Nobody is running a clock against your file.
- The same work, run on tested UAE playbooks
- Standard UAE matters repeat. Our counsel run them on drafting standards refined across hundreds of files, so the same quality takes a fraction of the hours a firm bills.
- No retainers, no partner overhead
- There is no DIFC tower, no billing department and no minimum engagement to fund. You are not paying for a cost base you never see.
- Protected by the refund promise
- Full refund if a UAE-licensed lawyer has not started within 10 minutes in staffed hours, and a full refund if we sold you the wrong service.
Where this applies
Dubai mainland (DED), DIFC and ADGM, and the free zones including DMCC, IFZA, JAFZA, RAKEZ, Meydan and SHAMS.
Buy this if: You are about to share something you cannot un-share.
In Dubai, specifically
- Mainland, free zone or DIFC
- Governing law and forum are the whole game here. A UAE onshore contract lands in Dubai Courts in Arabic; a DIFC or ADGM clause lands in an English-language common law court; an arbitration clause lands in DIAC. We set the clause that is actually enforceable against your counterparty, not the one that merely sounds strongest.
- The clock that is already running
- Once signed, a UAE contract is enforced largely as written — courts here are conservative about implied terms and rarely rescue a party from a clause they accepted. The cheapest hour in the whole matter is the one spent before signature.
- Language
- Your counsel works in English and Arabic. Arabic is the language of the UAE courts and most government filings, so anything needing legal translation, notarisation or MOFA attestation is identified and priced before work starts — never sprung on you later.
- You do not need to be in Dubai
- Handled entirely remotely. No office visit, no residency and no physical presence in the UAE required. Where UAE law allows it, signing and notarisation are completed remotely through the Dubai Courts notary. We work across time zones and outside 9 to 5, including Fridays and the shorter Ramadan working day.
- What this costs elsewhere in Dubai
- The Dubai norm is an hourly rate of AED 1,200 to AED 3,500, a retainer up front, and a consultation fee before anyone has read your document. Here the fee is fixed in advance, quoted in full, and covers the deliverable named on this page. There is no billable clock running against you.
- Paying from anywhere
- Priced and charged in AED. International Visa, Mastercard and Amex accepted, along with Apple Pay and Google Pay. No UAE bank account, no IBAN transfer and no cash office visit required.
What lands in your inbox
- Signature-ready NDA in Word and PDF
- Clear definition of confidential information
- Duration, remedies and UAE enforcement route
- Or a review of theirs with tracked changes

- The template circulating in your inbox was written for another country.
- It needs to be sent today, not next week.

- Clear definition of what is confidential and what is not
- Permitted use, return and destruction of information
- Duration, remedies and a UAE enforcement route that works
- Or: review of the NDA they sent you, with the changes to request

AED 350Before you buy
- Can I just use a template?

- Can you review theirs instead?
- Yes, at the same fee, with the changes to request.
- Refund?
- Full refund before drafting starts.
- Is the price really fixed?
- Yes. The fee you see is the fee you pay for the scope written on this page. If your matter turns out to need something outside that scope, we tell you the price before any further work starts.
- Who actually handles my matter?
- A vetted, UAE-licensed legal professional experienced in this exact type of matter. You are given their name, not a ticket number.
- What if I picked the wrong service?
- We move you to the right one. If it costs less, the difference is refunded. If it costs more, you decide before anything is charged.

A duty lawyer is on rotation during working hours and paid matters are routed the moment payment clears, which is how we hold the 10-minute contact window and the delivery time shown above.
Your information stays confidential
Details and documents you share are treated as confidential, used only for your matter and stored on encrypted infrastructure. Card details are handled by Stripe and never touch our systems.
Dubai Legal Office is operated by Index and works with licensed UAE legal professionals. Court, government and third-party fees are quoted separately and never charged without your approval.
