Khaled’s review is about resilience in the middle of serious illness—after a lifetime of work, losing retirement funds nearly cost him his health. With his son Turki carrying the fight, the case reached a verdict that exposed a wider operation and returned the funds with added damages.
My name is Sarah Al Khayat, I’m 45 from Qatar, and I also work in a government institution in Doha. I want to add my voice because my sister and I lived through this together—and it was one of the most painful experiences of our lives.
The insurance company we dealt with didn’t look suspicious. That’s what I want people to understand. It looked like a known local insurance company, the type you would never expect to be involved in something like this. They convinced us to move our insurance in a way that sounded “smart,” telling us we could generate long-term profits.
Instead, we watched our future disappear.
Around 4 million Qatari Riyals—our retirement plan—was gone. We felt ashamed, angry, and terrified. We tried going to the banks and speaking to local authorities, but the answers were always slow or unclear. It felt like we were fighting something we couldn’t even see properly.
A friend told us about Al Haq after visiting Belgium, and we contacted them for a discovery call. I remember thinking, How can anyone fix something this big?
But what I appreciated is that they didn’t give empty promises. They explained the process, asked the right questions, and built the case step by step. It took time—10 months of back and forth—but they stayed consistent and organized, even when it felt exhausting.
In the end, we recovered everything—our full amounts plus damages, totaling 5.6 million Qatari Riyals for both of us.
To anyone reading this: please don’t underestimate how emotionally heavy it is to lose retirement money. This isn’t “just finances.” It’s security, dignity, and peace of mind. I’m thankful we found people who actually knew how to push this kind of case until it reached a real outcome.
— Sarah Al Khayat, Qatar (45)
