FAQs

Frequently asked questions

When should I seek advice?

As early as possible. In insolvency scenarios, timing is crucial and seeking advice early usually means there are more options available. Delay closes doors.

What are my duties as a director if the business is struggling?

Once a company is in financial difficulty, your duties shift towards protecting creditors, and getting this wrong can create personal exposure. We help you understand and manage those responsibilities before problems escalate.

Does insolvency advice always lead to closing the business?

No. Our role is structured resolution, not just closure. Depending on the situation, options range from restructuring and turnaround through to formal procedures – and in each case we work to deliver the best available outcome.

What is a Members' Voluntary Liquidation (MVL)?

An MVL is a solvent liquidation – a tax-efficient way to wind up a company that can pay its debts, often used at the end of a business’s life or after a sale. We handle these alongside distressed scenarios.

How do you help me as a director?

Corporate difficulty rarely stays corporate for long. We help directors get ahead of personal risk, not just manage it after the fact.
