I recently contacted the UAE Embassy in regards to a local court fraud case in the UAE where a local was pardoned from jail with a Presidential Pardon and a pardon with a promise to pay and settle the debts of the locals which were pardoned. I requested assistance from Embassy for payment as promised by President for payment but have not been assisted or paid as promised by Presidet or Dewan's Office in Abu Dhabi which handles payments of citizen's Debts. These debts of the locals which were promised to be paid by the President of the UAE have not been paid as promised. We can not provide links to recent newspapers articles here due to Google Review Guidelines. Please do a Google search for UAE Pardons during the month of May and June and maybe type in under key words " UAE Pardon 879".

I have waited for around 10 years to be paid and every time I call the Dewan's Office in Abu Dhabi they say that they have not received money from the President to pay the debts of the local prisoners that were released. I have contacted the Embassy in Washington numerous times to resolve this issue and until now they have not paid as promised. More on this can be seen by doing a search for Dubai check Fraud.

I had to give them a 1 star rating because I was awarded a court case win in Dubai Courts,took them for ever to find and arrest this man. Every time he was arrested he was pardoned by the President with a promise to pay of which was never honored. In Islam this is very unislamic to do. The only way one is forgiven is if the victim is compensated and if the victim forgives the other party. To let a criminal go free without paying off the victim is not something God (Allah) will accept on Judgement Day. The UAE Embassy in Washington and Los Angeles have chosen to turn a blind eye to this but I have chose to write a review about this so people see and know the other side of the UAE here in America. For those that are unaware of how things work in the UAE I will briefly highlight them. Every year there are probably 3-4 Presidential Pardons that are issued by the President to pardon locals from prison for various crimes and because one that is found guilty of financial fraud the person freed or freeing them must pay off the debts of the person being freed according to Islamic beliefs (morally this should be done as well) so while an announcement of a pardon being announced with an announcement being made to pay and settle their debts may sound great to those reading this news, the reality of the victims not being paid is not something that ever makes news and hits the media because local news media never questions payments of announcements by the President or government. While there is a media gag and censorship on stuff like this those that believe in God know that you may be able to hide stuff from the media on reporting but those who pray 5 times a day and fast during Ramadan surely know that God (Allah) does see this and will hold them accountable on Judgement Day.

Once this case is resolved and I have been paid I will update my review to more stars but until then 1 star is being generous because an Embassy in the US they should help US Citizens get their money back for what their courts awarded and what their President promised to pay. The UAE Embassy is the representative office for the UAE in America.
