Is it true that non muslim married couples who are here in UAE can just go to court and file a divorce? Any advise is very much appreciated...God Bless...

Not as far as I'm aware. If you weren't married in the UAE it needs to be filed through your embassy or in your home country. Courts here will only deal with marriages under Sharia law.
