Emergency Legal Protection to Halt Liquidation Proceedings

If your company has been served with a winding up petition, time is running out. At West London Law, we specialise in securing urgent court injunctions to stop winding up petitions — protecting your business, assets, and reputation from immediate damage.

What is an Injunction?

An injunction is a legal order from the court that temporarily prevents a winding up petition from proceeding. It’s often used to stop the petition from being advertised in The Gazette — which can trigger bank account freezes and supplier panic.

When Should You Apply?

• The debt is disputed
• The creditor acted improperly or too early
• You’re in negotiations with the creditor (e.g. HMRC)
• The company is still solvent

Delays reduce your options and may result in irreversible reputational and financial harm.

Our Process to Secure an Injunction

• Assess the grounds to challenge the petition
• Prepare urgent court applications
• Represent you at the hearing to seek a temporary injunction
• Use the breathing space to resolve the dispute or strengthen your case

We also act to remove public notices and liaise with banks and suppliers to stabilise your operations.
