Power of Attorney for Court Representation

Legal Representation in Your Absence, Professionally Authorized.

​

A Power of Attorney for Court Representation enables you to legally authorize a trusted person or a licensed law firm to act on your behalf before UAE courts and other dispute resolution authorities when you’re unable to appear or participate personally.

What Is a POA for Court Representation?

This type of POA grants your representative the legal authority to:

  • File or defend a legal case on your behalf

  • Attend hearings and court proceedings

  • Submit and sign legal documents and evidence

  • Represent you before:

    • UAE Courts (civil, criminal, family, etc.)

    • Arbitration tribunals

    • Police stations

    • Public prosecution offices

    • Rent Dispute Settlement Centres

​

A POA for Court Representation is commonly used when you're outside the country, dealing with multiple cases, or unable to manage legal procedures due to health or personal reasons.

Who Can Be Appointed?

You can appoint:

  • A licensed advocate or legal consultant, or

  • Any trusted individual with a solid understanding of legal formalities

 

While appointing a lawyer is not mandatory, it is strongly recommended to choose someone experienced in UAE’s legal system to ensure compliance and avoid procedural delays.

What Does the POA Include?

Your Court Representation POA will typically cover:

  • Authority to register and pursue civil, criminal, or commercial cases

  • Permission to appear at all levels of courts (First Instance, Appeals, and Cassation)

  • Authorization to attend police or prosecution investigations

  • Authority to initiate arbitration or mediation proceedings

  • Right to respond to counterclaims or objections

  • Powers to appoint advocates or legal experts if required

 

Each POA is custom-drafted based on the nature of your legal matter and the scope of authority you wish to grant.
