If you are seeking an injunction over someone, we would recommend that you take immediate advice, as in many situations people will be seeking an injunction because they feel threatened.

An injunction is a legal order for a person to do or not to do something. these can include: problems with a neighbour acting in an anti- social way, loud noise for example; being harassed or intimidated by a person; to halt work e.g Tree removal. There are many examples.
Most commonly injunctions are used in family law but they cover many other areas.
If you have a non family law matter, we recommend you contact a solicitor to discuss your situation and assess if you are eligible to apply for an injunction.
The remainder of this article will deal with injunctions in Family law.

Both these types of injunction can carry the power of arrest should the injunction be breached.
