When Are Receivers Commonly Appointed?

Court appointed receivers are appointed when there isn't a contractual right to do so. Usually, they are appointed when there is some risk to property and commonly in cases where there is: -

• an application for a mareva injunction (and a receiver needs to be appointed);
• a partnership dispute;
• a trust dispute;

If you are facing a situation where property may be in jeopardy because of the actions of a business partner / trustee (or otherwise) then it may be important to consider appointing a receiver to protect your interests.
