FAQs
Still unsure? A short, confidential conversation is usually the fastest way to get clarity.
Ask a SpecialistA licensed insolvency practitioner takes control of the company, realises assets, investigates the directors' conduct, and distributes proceeds to creditors. They also handle legal filings and ensure the company is formally dissolved at the end of the process.
Costs vary based on complexity, asset value, and creditor numbers. Typically, fees range from a few thousand pounds for a simple creditors' voluntary liquidation. A practitioner will provide a fixed fee quote after an initial assessment.
Yes, you can. If there are no assets, a liquidator may still be appointed to conduct a proper investigation. The cost is often covered by director contributions or redundancy payment claims, depending on your situation.
A straightforward creditors' voluntary liquidation usually takes around six to twelve months to conclude, including the final dissolution. Complex cases with asset sales or legal disputes can take longer.
A creditors' voluntary liquidation is initiated by directors and shareholders, while compulsory liquidation is forced by a court order, usually following a creditor's petition. The process and control differ significantly.
Usually not, if you have acted properly and not given personal guarantees. However, if there has been wrongful trading or fraudulent activity, a liquidator may seek a contribution from you personally.
Once liquidation begins, the liquidator takes control and trading ceases, except for the purpose of a beneficial sale. Before that, you must not trade if the company is insolvent, as this could lead to personal liability.
Yes, alternatives include company voluntary arrangements, administration, or informal arrangements with creditors. A licensed practitioner can assess whether a rescue option is viable before recommending liquidation.
