Can I freeze a debtor’s Cayman bank account after they ignore a court claim?

In Cayman Islands
Last Updated: Feb 26, 2026
A local supplier owes my business a large amount and has stopped responding, but I believe they still have funds in a Cayman bank. I’ve filed a claim and I’m worried they’ll move the money before judgment. What urgent court steps are available and what evidence would I need?

It sounds like you're dealing with an urgent matter, and we can help you take the necessary court steps. If you're concerned that the supplier may move their funds before judgment, you could apply for a freezing order (also known as an injunction) to prevent them from transferring or dissipating assets before the court makes a ruling. This can be done quickly in cases of urgency. To support your application, you'll need to provide strong evidence that the supplier has assets in the Cayman Islands and that there is a real risk of them being moved. Evidence could include financial records, bank details, or any documents that link the supplier to the bank account. We can help you gather the right evidence and file the necessary paperwork to secure a freezing order and protect your claim. Let me know if you need assistance with this process!
