Clear Structure
Chronological, numbered and specific, so the statement can be followed and relied on without ambiguity.
An affidavit is evidence in written form. Everything it says can be tested, and everything it leaves out can be used against the person who made it, which is why the drafting matters far more than the signing.
Dubai Legal Expert drafts affidavits and sworn statements for individuals and companies in the UAE, structured so they say precisely what is intended and no more.
A well drafted statement separates what the person knows directly from what they were told or believe, states facts in a clear chronological structure, references supporting documents as exhibits, and avoids argument, opinion and speculation.
Poorly drafted statements do the opposite. They mix knowledge with assumption, make claims that cannot be supported, and include commentary that provides material for challenge without adding anything to the evidence.
Contact UsStatements structured chronologically with a clear separation between direct knowledge and information received.
Statements prepared for use in proceedings, in the form the relevant court expects.
Statements by directors and authorised signatories on company matters, ownership and authority.
Supporting documents organised, labelled and referenced correctly within the statement.
Review of statements drafted elsewhere, identifying exposure and unsupported assertions before signature.
Chronological, numbered and specific, so the statement can be followed and relied on without ambiguity.
Direct knowledge, information received and belief clearly distinguished, which is essential for credibility.
Argument, opinion and speculation removed, since they add nothing and create material for challenge.
Supporting documents labelled and referenced so each assertion is tied to evidence where evidence exists.
Drafted to the requirements of the court or authority that will receive it.
We flag any statement that could create exposure for you before you sign it.
A statement that addresses only the helpful facts invites the obvious question about everything it does not mention. Where an unhelpful fact is known and relevant, dealing with it directly is almost always stronger than leaving it to be raised by someone else.
Our drafting approach reflects that. We ask about the difficult parts first, then decide deliberately how they are addressed, rather than producing a statement that looks strong and collapses on the first challenge.
Gather everything, structure it properly, then remove what does not belong.
We establish who will receive the statement, what it must establish and what form it must take.
We take the complete account including the unhelpful parts, so the drafting decisions are informed.
Supporting documents are reviewed and identified as exhibits where they support the statement.
The statement is drafted with clear structure, separated knowledge and precise language.
You review the draft carefully and confirm every statement is accurate before anything is signed.
Notarisation is arranged, with attestation or apostille where the statement is for use abroad.
They asked about the parts I did not want to mention. Addressing them directly turned out to be much stronger.
The version we had drafted internally contained three assertions we could not have supported. They were removed.
Clear chronological structure, precise language, a clear separation between direct knowledge and information received, and supporting exhibits for each assertion where they exist.
Generally no. Argument and opinion add nothing to the evidence and provide material for challenge.
Supporting documents referenced within the statement and attached to it, labelled so each can be identified and relied on.
Yes. We frequently review statements drafted elsewhere and identify unsupported assertions and exposure before signature.
Where they are relevant and known, addressing them directly is usually stronger than leaving them to be raised by the other side.
Straightforward statements are usually completed within a few working days, depending on the volume of supporting documents.
