Take early legal advice

It is vital to take early legal advice if you are caught up in freezing order proceedings. A Claimant will serve the freezing order on “interested” third parties, such banks and financiers, related companies, accountants and ex-employees. Inadvertently breaching the terms of a freezing order, even if you are not a party to the actual proceedings, can have huge implications.
