Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between CVL and MVL in Abbots Langley?
A Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) is used when a company is insolvent and cannot pay its debts. It is initiated by directors but controlled by creditors. A Members' Voluntary Liquidation (MVL) is for solvent companies that wish to close, often for tax efficiency. Our licensed liquidators in Abbots Langley will assess your financial position and recommend the correct procedure, ensuring full compliance with the Insolvency Act 1986.
How much does company liquidation cost in Abbots Langley?
Costs vary depending on the complexity of your company's affairs, the number of creditors, and the assets involved. Typically, a simple CVL for a small company may cost between £4,000 and £6,000 plus VAT, while an MVL can be slightly less. We provide a fixed-fee quote after a free initial consultation, with no hidden charges. Our fees are often paid from company assets, subject to creditor approval.
Can I keep trading while my company is being liquidated?
No, once a liquidation order is made, directors lose control of the company. The appointed liquidator takes over all powers to manage affairs, sell assets, and distribute funds. However, before liquidation, you may continue trading if it helps preserve value, but you must not take on new credit or preferential payments. Our advisors can guide you on the legal limits during this period.
What happens to employees when a company in Abbots Langley goes into liquidation?
Employees are automatically dismissed upon the appointment of a liquidator. They become preferential creditors for unpaid wages, holiday pay, and redundancy entitlements, which may be claimed from the National Insurance Fund. The liquidator will provide each employee with a claim form (RP1) and explain the process. We help you communicate with staff sensitively and ensure all statutory obligations are met.
Are directors personally liable for company debts after liquidation?
In most cases, no. Limited liability protects directors from personal responsibility for company debts, provided they have not acted wrongfully. However, if you have given personal guarantees, traded while insolvent, or breached director duties, you could be held liable. Our liquidators investigate conduct and advise on potential risks, helping you avoid disqualification or personal claims.
How long does a company liquidation take in Abbots Langley?
A Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation typically takes between 6 and 12 months to complete, depending on asset realisation and creditor claims. A Members' Voluntary Liquidation can be faster, often closing within 3 to 6 months if no complex issues arise. The liquidator must file final accounts with Companies House and notify HMRC before the company is formally dissolved.
