I am concerned about the dissipation of assets following/during a dispute, what should I do?
============================================================================================

If you are worried that your opponent is about to get rid of valuable property or money so that you cannot get justice, you can apply to court to stop this happening. If the court considers that you have a good, arguable case, it may grant you a freezing injunction. This is an interim order that 'freezes'your opponent's assets so that they cannot dispose of or use them until the main dispute is resolved. 'Assets' can include bank accounts, land, motor vehicles, shares, bonds and other financial instruments. If it is money you are concerned about, copies of the injunction can be sent to your opponent's bank so that they can only withdraw such funds as are needed to cover reasonable living expenses.

A freezing injunction can be a very useful strategic tool. It ensures that if your claim ultimately succeeds, your opponent will have assets against which a judgment in your favour can be enforced. As in all injunction applications, it is important to act quickly, since the court will take into account any undue delay on your part when considering whether to grant a freezing injunction. Vardags can assess the merits of your case and advise you whether a freezing injunction is an appropriate way forward and if so, help you to gather the evidence you will need to make an application to court.

Vardags takes care to match the client to the solicitor. Within 2 months, Vardags got me everything I needed. I would not have the future I now have in front of me if it wasn't for Vardags.

N Beresford-Tomlin



I found myself in a position that I quite simply never dreamt I would be in in a million years. I went to Vardags, initially for advice. All my options were laid out in a very professional yet personal way. We decided to go down...  a particular route and as my situation changed , so did the route that Vardags recommended. I had never felt so vulnerable in all my life and so it was very comforting to feel supported at all times.

Throughout my time using Vardags I felt that I have always been in the best possible hands. I enjoyed an excellent level of service and received accurate and precise legal advice. The lawyers are hugely talented, sensitive and...  focused on getting the very best results. Their no-nonsense and direct approach is most valuable when time and costs are of the essence. I highly recommend them over and above any other law firm I have ever dealt with. Thank you Vardags.
