My husband's company will be transfering my husband in their Dubai office, its a permanent position. He'll be leaving soon. Is there a possibility that we can also join him there? Its really hard when families are apart, we have a son and we really wanted the family to be together. What are the things we have to do (legal actions) so we can also be with my husband.. Tanx.

Your husband has to be completed the residence permit formalities after he reached in Dubai. Once it has been done, he can apply visa for you and son. I would suggest you to get attested your marriage certificate from the UAE embassy/consulate, at your country of origin.
I hope your husband's company will assist him to obtain your visa.
Good luck and welcome to Dubai.

Hi,
of course you can join him. Get your papers ready for your and your son's residence permit. I don't know how old your son is, but he needs a passport on his own. Then have your marriage certificate and his birth certificate confirmed.
If I would know where you are from, I could provide you with the correct steps and adresses where to send your papers, too.
You can enter the UAE on a visit visa and have this later transferred to a Residence Visa. This usually can take up to 4 weeks. If you arrive after your husband/sponsor, it is the best if you arrive after he received his residence visa as your residence visa can then be procesed prior your arrival. This option saves the extra step of converting a visit visa to a residence visa.
The HR Department of your husband's company in Dubai will apply for his and maybe also your residence visa or at least assist him with that.

Your husband's company is solely rersponsible for providing resident's visa for both him and you - and any dependants. You should have to do ... nothing. It will all be done for you.
