Dubai skyline on a hazy afternoon

For the night you hope never comes.

A membership that answers arrest in the UAE with a single hold: your case brief to a vetted law firm, word to your consulate, a live view for the people who love you. Phone locked, dead, or taken: it still runs.

Coming soon to iPhone & Apple Watch See how it works

What happens when you hold

ELA home screen: Protected, with the hold ring The hold ring filling as you press for three seconds Pre-dispatch countdown with the I'm safe slider Active case: law firm notified, consulate informed, trusted contacts notified Trusted contact live page showing the acting lawyer and each milestone

Everything else is ours now.

Press and hold for three seconds. That's your whole job.

You don't type anything. You don't call anyone. You don't explain.

A short countdown. Yours to stop, if you can.

If the moment passes, slide I'm safe and nothing happens. If you can't, ELA sends. From here on, your silence counts as a yes.

  • Sending — slide if you're safe

EXAMPLE — a short countdown runs before dispatch

Then the response runs without you.

Your phone can be locked, dead, or in someone else's pocket. The dispatch runs on our servers, not your screen. The firm is engaged the moment it accepts your case; if it can't take it, ELA is already finding another.

  • Case opened — your profile and location compiled into a case brief
  • A vetted law firm notified, your brief in hand

EXAMPLE timeline — actual timings vary by case

Your consulate knows your name.

Its emergency desk is informed as your case opens, so the people who can ask after you know to ask. A trained human ops team follows every case from first second to last.

  • A vetted law firm notified, your brief in hand
  • Your consulate's emergency desk informed

EXAMPLE timeline — actual timings vary by case

Your family sees help arrive.

One private link, sent only to the contacts you chose. Your live location, each milestone as it happens, and the name of the lawyer acting for you.

  • Your consulate's emergency desk informed
  • Your trusted contacts receive a private live status link

EXAMPLE timeline — actual timings vary by case

By morning, it's a case — not a crisis.

A lawyer who accepted your brief. A consulate that knows your name. A family that saw every step. That's what protected means here: a sequence built to run whether or not you can press another button.

Notified, then engaged.The firm receives your case brief at dispatch and is engaged the moment it accepts.

Timings are examples.Every timeline on this page is an example of how the sequence runs, never a promise of a specific outcome.

The people who love you watch help arrive.

One private link, sent only to the contacts you chose. No unanswered calls. No refreshing the news. Just what is actually happening, as it happens.

  • Your live location, shared with the response team and your chosen contacts only.
  • Each milestone, as it lands: case opened, firm accepted, consulate informed.
  • The acting lawyer's name, the moment the firm accepts your case.

The hold works on your wrist.

Apple Watch mirrors the hold. Three seconds on your wrist arms the same response: the same case brief, the same vetted law firm, the same family view. Phone across the room, or already gone: it still runs.

Apple Watch mid-hold: two seconds remaining, keep holding, release to stop

Fail-safe by design.

The response was built for the worst version of the night, when you can't do anything after the hold.

It runs on our servers.

The case brief is compiled and the dispatch sent server-side. Locked, dead, or taken after the hold, your phone is no longer part of the sequence.

Vetted counsel, with a plan B.

A vetted law firm is notified with your brief and engaged the moment it accepts. If it can't act, ELA is already finding another.

A trained human team.

Ops tracks every case from the first second to the last milestone, and steps in wherever the system can't.

One response. Three ways to belong.

Every member gets the identical emergency response: the same dispatch, the same vetted law firm, the same family view. The tiers differ in exactly one way: who pays the legal fees.

Essential

750AED / yr

The full emergency response

You settle legal fees directly with the firm.

Shield

3,750AED / yr

The identical emergency response

Legal fees are met for you, so the night runs the same way and the bill doesn't land on you.

Shield membership includes legal-fee insurance, underwritten by a regulated UAE insurer.

Family Shield

7,500AED / yr

The identical emergency response

Shield for two adults. Every adult protected, one shared family view.

Each adult holds full Shield membership, including legal-fee insurance underwritten by a regulated UAE insurer.

Whichever you choose, the night runs the same way. Only the bill changes hands.

Insurance benefits are provided under a group policy with a regulated UAE insurer. ELA is a membership service; it is not an insurance company and does not sell, arrange, or advise on insurance.
