Example analysis
Question
My employer refuses to give me my employment certificate. How long do they have?
Conclusion
Eight days at most.
When the contract ends, the employer must hand over the employment certificate within eight days at most, or be liable for damages.
Ask for it in writing, citing Article 72 of the Labour Code.

Our method
Finding the article is not enough. You also need its wording in force, its exceptions, the authoritative version and how certain each source is. No answer reaches you without passing these checks.
Laws change. LegalBens applies the wording in force on the date of the facts, never an outdated one.
Before concluding, LegalBens looks for anything that could bend the rule: a derogation, a condition, a special law.
Rent review for a home: 8% at most, and not before three years.
Derogation: when the rent does not exceed 400 dirhams a month, the court sets the increase, up to 50%.
Law No. 07-03, articles 2 to 5
The Arabic version published in the Official Bulletin is authoritative. When the French translation departs from it, LegalBens tells you so explicitly.
The French version of this article does not carry the same amounts as the Arabic version, which is authoritative: check the Arabic text before acting.
Every source is labelled: official text, reviewed by a lawyer, or to be checked. When information is missing, LegalBens says so, or asks you.
In practice
Three situations, three documents: what LegalBens produces for you, with the article to back it.
Individuals
A dismissal, a lease, a disputed purchase, an administrative formality: LegalBens opens a case file, identifies the applicable texts, calculates your deadlines and shows you what to do next.
If your situation calls for it, it prepares the hand-over to a lawyer. Nothing is shared without your consent.
“I received my dismissal letter by registered mail on 4 March.”
