Banking and Finance Cases in Jordan

Banking and finance cases include disputes arising from loan and credit facility agreements, deposit certificates, current account operations, credit cards, and real estate financing. They also cover dishonored cheque disputes, frozen accounts, and forced collection violations.

Banks maintain specialized legal teams — their clients need equivalent representation to protect their rights against these large institutions.

• Jordanian Banking Law No. 28/2000 and its amendments — governs the operation of banks and financial institutions.
• Central Bank of Jordan instructions — define customer rights and banking obligations.
• Commercial Papers Law No. 29/1964 — governs cheques, bills of exchange, and payment orders.
• Anti-Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing Law — for cases with criminal financial dimensions.
• Real Estate Lending and Housing Finance Regulation — for housing loan disputes.

• Contesting unlawful fees or interest imposed by the bank.
• Claiming refund of amounts collected forcibly in violation of the law.
• Challenging account freezing orders or transaction refusal decisions.
• Defense in dishonored cheque cases and seeking suspension of prosecution.
• Real estate financing disputes involving loan terms and interest rates.
• Representation before the Financial Consumer Protection Unit at the Central Bank.

We study the financing or loan agreement in full to identify any clauses that violate the law or Central Bank instructions. We first seek an amicable settlement with the bank, and if unsuccessful we file the lawsuit or complaint before the competent regulatory authorities.
