In line with its commitment to supporting national visions aimed at fostering a sustainable environment for the growth
and prosperity of family businesses, which are considered a vital pillar of the economy, the Dubai Judicial Centre
launched the training programme titled ‘Negotiation Skills and Settlement of Family Disputes in the Distribution of
Inheritances.’ Launched in collaboration with the Dubai Centre for Family Businesses, operating under the umbrella of
Dubai Chambers, the programme is designed to strengthen the capabilities of judicial personnel and enhance their
efficiency in handling inheritance-related disputes.

This initiative reflects the directives of H.H. Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, First Deputy Ruler
of Dubai, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Finance, and Chairman of the Dubai Judicial Council, to safeguard the
continuity of family businesses across generations. These businesses represent a vital pillar of sustainable investment,
anchored in the development of human capital and managerial excellence.

The programme, which commenced on September 9, targets a select group of judges from Dubai courts, aiming to
equip them with the necessary tools and develop skills required to handle inheritance disputes within family businesses.
Delivered by Adib Rashid, Director of Dubai Centre for Family Businesses, the programme focuses on three main pillars:
the concept and structure of family businesses; the causes and motivations behind disputes in family businesses; and
the role of governance and international practices in managing family business disputes.

H.E. Judge Dr. Ebtisam Ali Al Bedwawi, Director General of Dubai Judicial Institute, said: “The launch of this programme
aligns with the visionary outlook of H.H. Sheikh Maktoum bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum in fostering an
ecosystem that supports family businesses and ensures their continuity as partners in driving the economic growth.
This step marks a significant contribution to the efforts of the judicial system in enhancing the sustainability of family
businesses. At the same time, it embodies the mission of the Dubai Judicial Institute to disseminate legal knowledge,
