Why Protect Your Assets During Divorce?
During a divorce, many clients worry that their spouse may attempt to transfer assets overseas — especially cash, investments, or valuable properties held under a single name. Some fear their spouse may sell or dispose of these assets, significantly reducing their overall value.
Our goal is to help clients protect their assets through effective legal action, ensuring fair division and transparency in accordance with Hong Kong family law.
The Role of an Injunction Order
A court injunction order can freeze assets to prevent them from being transferred or sold. By applying for an injunction through your lawyer, you can stop a spouse from moving money abroad or disposing of property before financial negotiations or court proceedings are concluded.
This ensures that marital assets remain secure during divorce discussions or hearings — preventing one party from increasing debt, reducing net worth, or unfairly diminishing shared property.
How to Apply for an Injunction
It is crucial to seek legal advice as early as possible if you suspect your spouse is hiding or transferring assets. Provide your lawyer with all available evidence and information regarding potentially at-risk property or accounts. Our legal team will assess your situation and help you prepare a strong application to protect your financial interests.
Important Considerations
- The purpose of an injunction order is to preserve assets until a fair division is achieved.
- Acting early and providing complete and accurate details increases your chance of success.
- Asset protection helps ensure that your spouse cannot unfairly reduce the value of marital property before court proceedings conclude.
