UAE MoJ Virtual Lawyer vs HAQQ
A ministry can answer the public's question for free. It does not run your firm.

The Bottom Line
The UAE Ministry of Justice's Smart Justice work is exactly the kind of initiative that should exist: free, court-connected legal guidance for the public, from the institution with the most authoritative view of UAE procedure. It is not a competitor to a law firm's software and we would not position it as one. It answers a citizen's question. It does not draft the pleading, run the matter, or bill the client. HAQQ is what the firm uses for that, and it is complementary to a stronger public justice system, not opposed to it.
Different jobs entirely
Public legal information widens access to justice. HAQQ is professional tooling for the firms that take the resulting work: drafting, review, research, matters and billing.
Court-connected is a real advantage
No private product can match a ministry's connection to court process. HAQQ complements it by handling the professional work around a matter across 200+ countries.
Free, and that is fine
HAQQ also starts free with 16 free legal tools. A firm pays for the practice layer, which a public service is not trying to provide.

HAQQQuestions Fréquentes
Does the UAE Ministry of Justice offer an AI lawyer?
The Ministry has pursued AI-assisted public legal guidance as part of its Smart Justice programme. It is aimed at public access rather than at running a law firm, which is what HAQQ does.
Should a UAE firm use it instead of legal software?
They serve different purposes. Public guidance helps a citizen understand a process; a firm still needs drafting, review, research, matter management and billing, which is what HAQQ provides.
Is HAQQ compliant with UAE requirements?
HAQQ is built MENA-first for UAE law in native Arabic with full RTL, holds ISO 27001, ISO 42001 and SOC 2, and offers on-premise deployment where data residency is required.
