The litigators at GLG LLP have significant experience in representing clients seeking financial recovery. They can assist businesses and individual creditors with a range of debt collection matters, including:

• Accounts receivable;
• Enforcement of contractual debt;
• Multi-jurisdictional debt matters;
• Return of valuable assets;
• Debt recovery related to the sale of goods; and

When there is concern a debtor will relocate or otherwise seek to dispose of their assets, they will seek a freezing order, also known as a Mareva injunction. In order to secure this remedy, a plaintiff must be able to establish that there is a strong likelihood they will be successful against the defendant in court. The ability to move assets around electronically means that such an order must be sought quickly and skillfully.
