When urgent legal action is required, an Order to Show Cause (OSC) can be a powerful tool to seek immediate relief from the court. Whether you need to stop an eviction, freeze assets, modify a court order, or enforce your legal rights, Rajiv Syed Law provides strategic legal assistance in filing and responding to Orders to Show Cause in New York courts.
What is an Order to Show Cause?
An Order to Show Cause is a fast-tracked legal motion that requires the opposing party to appear before a judge and explain why a court order should not be granted.
This legal tool is commonly used for:
✔ Emergency eviction stays (tenant protections)
✔ Injunctions to prevent immediate harm
✔ Freezing assets in business or financial disputes
✔ Modifications of child support or custody orders
✔ Seeking a temporary restraining order (TRO)
✔ Challenging default judgments
✔ Reopening a case due to new evidence
At Rajiv Syed Law, we draft, file, and argue OSC motions to ensure that your urgent legal matter is handled effectively and efficiently.
