Frequently asked questions
What is Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) and how does it work in Bonnybridge?
A Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) is a formal insolvency procedure for a company that cannot pay its debts. In Bonnybridge, our licensed liquidators convene a meeting of shareholders to pass a resolution for voluntary winding up, followed by a creditors' meeting where a liquidator is appointed. The liquidator then takes control of the company's assets, investigates its affairs, realises the assets and distributes the proceeds to creditors in the statutory order of priority. The process typically concludes within 12 to 18 months, after which the company is dissolved.
What are the legal duties of directors of an insolvent company in Bonnybridge?
Directors of an insolvent company in Bonnybridge have a legal duty to act in the best interests of creditors, not just shareholders. This includes avoiding wrongful trading (continuing to trade when they know the company cannot avoid insolvency), maintaining proper accounting records, and not making preferential payments to certain creditors. Failure to comply can lead to personal liability for company debts, disqualification as a director, or even criminal prosecution. Seeking professional advice early is essential to protect your position.
Can a company in Bonnybridge trade while undergoing liquidation?
Once a company enters Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation, the liquidator takes control and the directors' powers cease. However, the liquidator may continue trading the business for a short period if it is beneficial for achieving a better return for creditors, such as completing existing orders or selling the business as a going concern. The directors cannot make decisions independently during this time. If you are considering liquidation, our team can advise on the appropriate timing and any pre-liquidation trading considerations.
What is the difference between compulsory liquidation and voluntary liquidation in Bonnybridge?
Compulsory liquidation is a court-ordered process, typically initiated by a creditor who obtains a winding-up order against the company. Voluntary liquidation is initiated by the company's shareholders and directors. Within voluntary liquidation, there are two types: Members' Voluntary Liquidation (MVL) for solvent companies and Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) for insolvent companies. In Bonnybridge, most insolvent companies opt for CVL because it gives directors more control over the appointment of the liquidator and is generally less costly and disruptive than compulsory liquidation.
Will I be personally liable for company debts after liquidation in Bonnybridge?
In most cases, directors of a limited company are not personally liable for company debts, provided they have not given personal guarantees, acted fraudulently, or engaged in wrongful trading. The purpose of liquidation is to deal with the company's debts from its assets. However, if you have provided personal guarantees for business loans, leases or supplier credit, you may be pursued by creditors for those specific debts. Our Bonnybridge liquidators can review your personal guarantees and advise on the potential risks before you proceed.
How much does company liquidation cost in Bonnybridge and who pays for it?
The cost of a Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation in Bonnybridge typically ranges from £4,000 to £8,000 plus VAT, depending on the complexity of the case, the size of the company and the number of creditors. The liquidator's fees are paid from the company's assets, but if there are insufficient assets, directors may need to contribute to cover the costs, or the fees may be funded from director's voluntary contributions. We provide transparent, fixed-fee quotations upfront, and we can discuss funding options during your free consultation.
