Prohibitory injunctions are court orders aimed at stopping a person or organisation from doing something, typically to prevent ongoing or imminent harm to a business or its interests. In England, a solicitor handling this area helps clients seek or defend an order from the High Court or the County Court in appropriate proceedings. They assess whether there is a real risk of irreparable harm, prepare and contend arguments on the balance of convenience, and draft and lodge the necessary applications, affidavits, and evidence to obtain or resist the injunction. The proceedings are time-sensitive and governed by civil procedure rules and interim relief standards.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The solicitor handles the strategic and procedural complexities of urgent interim relief, including identifying the correct court, preparing urgent applications, gathering contemporaneous evidence, and navigating the balance of convenience and substantive grounds. They also manage reporting and compliance with court directions, and coordinate with interim remedies like undertakings to secure client interests while the main action proceeds.
