Freezing orders

Freezing orders are legal directives issued by a court to prevent someone from selling, transferring, or altering their assets. These orders are typically used in cases involving fraud or financial disputes to ensure that the person does not hide or dissipate their wealth before a legal decision is made. Essentially, it "freezes" the assets, allowing the court to preserve them for potential recovery or compensation. This helps protect the interests of claimants and ensures that justice can be served without the risk of asset loss.
