The risk to be managed
The request should identify a concrete risk, such as disposal of assets, withdrawal of funds or alteration of the subject matter of the dispute.
Connection with the claim
The measure should correspond to the nature and scope of the claim. A measure that is too broad or poorly reasoned may be ineffective or disproportionate.
Evidence
Abstract assumptions are rarely enough. Documents, conduct of the parties, changes in assets and other factual indicators should support the risk relied upon.
Strategic impact
Interim measures may affect negotiations and ongoing business, so both the legal basis and the wider procedural consequences should be assessed.
Before seeking advice
Support both the underlying claim and a concrete risk to eventual enforcement. A large claim alone is not a substitute for the relevant circumstances. Gather evidence of asset disposals, changes in financial position or the risk alleged, and consider the measure’s scope. Interim protection should be connected with the claim and proportionate, not used merely as pressure.
