Winning Outcome: The court issues an award of damages, an injunction, or a specific performance order; obtains a Costs Order, following the 'costs follow the event' principle, where the losing party typically pays 60% to 80% of the winning party's reasonable legal fees; commences enforcement proceedings, and if the other party refuses to pay, an application can be made for seizure of assets (bailiff involvement), a third-party debt order (freezing bank accounts), or to declare the other party bankrupt or wound up.
Losing Outcome: Obligation to pay damages or comply with a specific order; liability for double legal costs (your own legal fees and a significant portion of the winning party's costs); need to assess within 28 days whether there are reasonable grounds to appeal.
