The problem this removes
We choose the right mainland, free zone or DIFC structure for you, then handle the incorporation, the licence and the core company documents end to end.
If this is you
- You are ready to trade in the UAE and need the company to exist properly, not just quickly.
- Agents quote you a licence price and stay silent on ownership, tax and banking.
- You want a lawyer, not a formation shop, holding the file.
The cost of waiting
A licence issued under the wrong activity or structure has to be amended or reissued, and banks reject the file in the meantime.

Before you buy
- Why is the fee a starting fee?
- The starting fee covers a standard single-activity company. If your file needs more, you get a fixed written quote before any extra work and a full refund if you decline.
- Are government fees included?
- No, and we never mark them up. You see the authority invoice and pay it at cost.
- Do I need to be in the UAE?
- Most structures can be completed remotely with a power of attorney, which we prepare.
- What if I change my mind?
- Full refund before drafting or filing begins, no questions asked.
- 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.
- What if nobody contacts me in 10 minutes?
- Your service fee is refunded. The clock starts the moment your payment is confirmed and it is recorded against your reference number.
Frequently asked questions
- What happens after I pay?
- A UAE legal professional will contact you by WhatsApp or phone within 10 minutes. They will confirm the request, collect anything else required and begin the service.
- What happens if Index cannot handle my request?
- Your Index Law service fee will be refunded in full.
- Are government fees included?
- No, unless the service expressly says they are included. Government, court, notary, licence, registration, translation and other third-party fees are shown separately before they are incurred.
- Is the work reviewed by a lawyer?
- Where the service involves UAE legal advice or legal drafting, it is reviewed or delivered by an appropriately qualified UAE legal professional.
- How are your lawyers vetted?
- We work with a small panel rather than an open marketplace. Each professional is licensed to practise in the UAE, checked for good standing, and only given matters in the areas they practise in day to day.
- How can the fee be fixed?
- Each service has a defined scope, so the work is predictable and priced once. If your matter turns out to need more than the published scope, we tell you first and nothing further is charged without your written approval.
- Can I speak to someone before paying?
- Yes. Book One Hour With a Dubai Lawyer for AED 750, credited in full against any service you instruct within 30 days.
- How quickly will I receive the work?
- The delivery time is shown on every service. Many reviews and documents are delivered within 24 hours.
- Can I request changes?
- Each service states whether a revision or follow-up question is included.
