Injunctions

When it comes to obtaining injunctive relief—to preserve assets pending trial, seize evidence or restrain picketing—time is of the essence. Any delay in bringing (or responding to) an injunction can adversely affect a party’s rights. Injunctions are fast-paced litigation requiring expertise, skilled advocacy and a nimble team of experienced lawyers.

Hicks Morley’s litigators have unparalleled experience with a wide range of injunctions and emergency relief. Depending on the circumstances, we have sought interim, interlocutory and permanent injunctions on behalf of our clients. We are known—and trusted—by clients to protect their business. Our team learns each client’s business and provides critical strategic advice to be prepared and present the case effectively before the court.
