If you need urgent help to protect your business interests then it may be necessary to apply for an injunction. This might be the case where your intellectual property rights are being infringed, a competitor is making unfair use of your confidential information, your reputation is being unjustifiably tarnished, you need access to documents before deciding whether to issue legal proceedings or someone who owes you money is deliberately depleting their assets to avoid paying what is due.
An injunction is a court order which either prohibits certain actions being taken (a prohibitory injunction) or compels certain actions to be carried out (a mandatory injunction). They are a useful tool where you are in dispute with someone and you urgently need them to do or stop doing something to prevent your business being irreversibly harmed.
