Compelling Third-Party Disclosure: The Power Of Norwich Orders

People often find themselves in a situation where they have been wronged and want to seek legal recourse but struggle to identify the wrongdoer, locate evidence they need, or even trace money that was taken from them. In many circumstances, the information you need is often held by a neutral third party (such as a website host or bank) who isn't at liberty to voluntarily give you the information.

This is where the legal tool of Norwich Orders becomes valuable— a mechanism designed to compel disclosure from third parties without needing to actually commence a legal action.

What Is a Norwich Order?

A Norwich Order is a form of relief you can seek from the Court which compels a third party to disclose information critical to a potential legal claim.
