Dubai has long been recognized as a global hub for high-value equestrian transactions, with elite buyers and sellers engaging in multimillion-dollar deals involving racehorses, showjumpers, and endurance horses. Given the significant financial and legal implications of such transactions, ensuring a secure and structured payment process is critical.
The Need for Escrow in Horse Trading
The acquisition of high-value horses often involves complex agreements, veterinary approvals, and international transfers. Without a structured escrow arrangement, both buyers and sellers face potential risks, including disputes over horse health, delayed payments, or fraudulent claims.
Dr. Alhammadi Law Firm, a leading provider of escrow services in Dubai, offers specialized legal solutions for equestrian transactions, ensuring all parties are protected under a legally binding framework.
How Our Escrow Services Work
Our firm provides a tailored escrow service for horse trading, structured as follows:
- Deposit & Pre-Sale Verification
- The buyer deposits funds into the escrow account managed by Dr. Alhammadi Law Firm.
- The horse undergoes veterinary inspections, DNA testing, performance assessments, and pedigree verification.
- Funds remain secured until all contractual conditions are met.
- Conditional Release of Funds
- Payments are staggered based on key milestones, such as successful health certification, regulatory approvals, and transport logistics.
- This structure protects both parties from premature releases or financial losses due to unforeseen complications.
- Legal Ownership Transfer & Compliance
- The firm ensures all title transfer documents are legally sound and that the transaction complies with UAE equestrian trade regulations.
- This prevents post-sale disputes over ownership claims or contract misinterpretations.
