Criminal laws deal with criminal activities at local, national, and international levels. These laws punish the criminals in a criminal court of justice for crimes like theft, assault, and burglary. Criminal laws require the state to either prove the defendant guilty or innocent.
Civil laws differ from criminal laws owing to their emphasis on individual rights. The civil law comes into force when a person’s right is violated, or he or she has a clash with other party or person. Here the burden of proof falls solely on the plaintiff rather than on the state. That said, the attorneys at Khalid bin Mohammed Al Qassimi Advocates and Legal Consultants firm are well acquainted with both criminal and civil laws. We defend our clients during criminal proceedings and make sure their right to legal assistance is not violated. We protect our clients from illegal and prolonged custody through full cooperation and representation in all hearings.
