Hi there.

I am a British male who bought an apt in Hurghada more than 3 years ago but still have not recieved the keys.
Yes I know it sounds crazy, I am on my 3rd lawyer now and still fighting to win my rights.
Lawyers just lie and cheat me, does anyone know of a good lawyer?
I also wonder if it is possible to write in some newspaper in Hurghada about the man whom I bought my apt from and warn others, he has no scuples he has even went as far as to beat a woman half to death, she lost her sight in one eye and was told that if she reports him she will be killed!
So as you see I am in a bit of a pickle!
It is obvious that I have paid for apt, have a contract but been fighting in the courts for years.
Any comments anyone.
Will be back again in Hurghada in July.
SMS me if you like 0046 768 518 115

1. What type of document do you have that proves you are now THE OWNER of the flat?? for entering your flat, you need a document, an act, not any keys!
2. If you have a valid act for owning, just ask a technician to open the door, and remove the locker, change it.... It is like YOU HAVE LOST THE KEYS OF THE HOUSE, not a big deal!
3.If you just gave the money without any document that is registered in one office of the Minister for Internal Affair or Minister of Justice, it means that you deserve what happen with you now!
Sorry, next time MEASURE 10 TIMES, and CUT ONCE! or don t give money for nothing!
Good Luck!

Hi,
WE can not say the Legal system or Lawyers are wrong in Hurghada because we not check the contract for John Screen maybe its not good contract written by non-experiance lawyer.
we provide legal services for all and we can not help him without checking the contracts.
Best Luck John in your case,
Egyptian Lawyers Group
