What is a commercial injunction?

A commercial injunction is a court order that either compels a party to take a specific action or prevents them from doing something that could cause harm to your business. They are one of the most powerful legal tools available to protect your interests.

When should you apply?

It is common for companies to apply for a commercial injunction even before formal court proceedings have begun. Acting quickly can significantly reduce the risk of financial losses that may be difficult or impossible to recover later — and can prevent a far more costly dispute down the line.

Types of commercial injunction

There are two main categories. Mandatory Injunctions force a party to carry out a particular act or direction. Prohibitory Injunctions direct a party to stop doing something specific. The right approach will depend on the circumstances of your case.

This is a complex area of law. The implications of applying — or failing to apply — for an injunction can be profound. We will assess your case carefully before advising on the best course of action.
