If you are an office holder (or member) and feel that your organisation in unable to pay its creditors as and when they fall due, your company is most likely facing the onset of insolvency.
As a director you are under a duty to act in the best interests of the company. If you do not do this, you may be in breach of the Insolvency Act 1986 and Companies Act 2006 and could face criminal sanctions. We will advise you on the options available to you using formal and informal procedures based on your situation, including,
- Considering all the different options available to the company when facing the onset of insolvency;
- The viability of a Company Voluntary Arrangement ("CVA") with the company and all of its creditors. We advise on terms of a CVA and can assist you in finding a supervisor;
- Placing the company into administration, creating a barrier (moratorium) from creditor, bailiff and landlord actions;
- Assisting directors who face directors disqualification proceedings;
- Assisting and dealing with the restoration of a company;
- Making recession applications which would treat the company as though it had never been wound up:
- Advising commercial tenants on their rights if their Landlord becomes insolvent;
- Assisting in the winding up of a company compulsorily;
- If you have been subjected to a Winding petition, we assist in seeking emergency validation orders to allow payments out of the company bank accounts lawfully;
- Assist in making Section 216 applications for you to allow you to reuse a company name of a previously liquidated company.
