For the night you hope never comes.
A membership that answers arrest in the UAE with a single hold — 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.
One hold is enough.
Press, hold, done. That’s everything ELA will ever ask of you in the moment — the rest is built to run on its own.
It runs off your phone, not on it.
Dispatch happens on ELA’s servers. Locked, dead, or in someone else’s pocket — your phone leaving your hands changes nothing.
No one you love is left guessing.
The contacts you chose follow a private live page: your location, each milestone, the name of the lawyer acting for you.
It’s 2:11 a.m. in a city that isn’t yours. A checkpoint. A complaint you never saw coming. A misunderstanding in a language you don’t speak. Your phone is about to be taken, and you get one small window to act.
Three seconds. That’s your whole job.
You couldn’t face it alone.
You don’t have to.
What happens, in order.
No jargon, no mystery — the exact sequence, the way it would run for you.
Hold for three seconds.
Press and hold — three seconds, from your phone or your wrist. A short countdown begins; 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.
You don’t type anything. You don’t call anyone. You don’t explain.
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.
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.
Who moves when you can’t.
A vetted law firm
Criminal-defence counsel, vetted by ELA before they ever see a case. At dispatch the firm is notified with your full brief — your identity, your location, your situation — and engaged the moment it accepts. Your family sees the acting lawyer’s name on their page, so counsel is never an abstraction.
A human ops team
Software runs the sequence; people stand behind it. The ops team follows every case from the first second to the last milestone — they watch the dispatch land, confirm the firm’s acceptance, and keep your family’s page current the whole way through.
Every case is tracked end to end. Nothing relies on you being reachable.
Most days, it’s a quiet screen.
ELA at rest is one calm page — protection active, the hold button waiting, a short readiness list beneath it. You check it the way you check a passport: rarely, and with relief.
It’s the button you hope you never need, kept ready anyway.
And if the night comes, it looks like this.
One screen holds the whole response: the law firm on your case by name, each milestone as it lands, your live location with the response team. The firm is engaged the moment it accepts your brief — and you watch that happen.
If you can talk, quick replies are one tap. If you can’t, that’s fine too — nothing here needs you.
The people who love you watch help arrive.
One private link, sent only to the contacts you chose. It shows your live location, each milestone as it happens, and the name of the lawyer acting for you.
No unanswered calls. No refreshing the news. No imagining the worst at 3 a.m. — just what is actually happening, as it happens.
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.
The full emergency response. You settle legal fees directly with the firm.
The same response. Shield membership includes legal-fee insurance, underwritten by a regulated UAE insurer.
Shield for two adults. Every adult protected, one shared family view.
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.
Built so one hold is enough.
ELA launches soon on iPhone and Apple Watch. Membership opens at launch.
