Finding the best lawyer to address your legal concerns can often be a time consuming task. However, with NYK Law Firm, you can gain access to the premier legal consultants in the UAE, ensuring the resolution of all your legal matters efficiently.
In a commendable initiative aimed at providing legal assistance to labourers, NYK Law Firm partnered with Dubai Rotary Club of Downtown to host a legal aid session at Al Naboodah Labour Camp.
The event, held on Sunday from 11am to 1pm, saw the participation of around 50 labourers representing diverse nationalities, including India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
Sunil Ambalavelil, Chairman of the Dubai-based NYK Law Firm, spearheaded the legal aid initiative. Accompanied by Rtn. PDRR. Devanand Mahadeva, President of Dubai Rotary Club of Downtown, and a team of five legal associates, he took charge at the event, offering assistance to labourers seeking guidance on legal matters in their home countries. Initially hesitant, the labourers gradually opened up to the lawyers, sharing their queries and apprehensions.
The session was organised into group discussions, with each group of labourers guided by a legal associate from NYK Law Firm. The legal associates patiently listened to the labourers' concerns and provided them with relevant legal advice and guidance.
For issues requiring further consultation or legal aid in their home countries, the NYK team facilitated connections with lawyers specialised in the relevant jurisdictions.
Sunil Ambalavelil expressed his satisfaction with the event, noting, "it’s heartening to see the labourers opening up and actively seeking legal guidance. We aim to equip them with the necessary knowledge and assistance to address their legal challenges effectively. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Rtn. PDRR. Devanand Mahadeva, President of Dubai Rotary Club of Downtown, for giving us this opportunity."
The labourers hailed the opportunity to engage with seasoned professionals regarding their legal woes. One labourer remarked, "I was hesitant at first, but the lawyers made me feel comfortable, and I was able to get clarity on my legal issues.”
The legal aid session served as a valuable platform for labourers to receive legal assistance and gain insights into managing legal issues in their home countries.
The collaboration between NYK Law Firm and Dubai Rotary Club of Downtown underscores the importance of community-driven initiatives in addressing the needs of vulnerable populations and promoting access to justice
