Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between creditors voluntary liquidation and members voluntary liquidation?
Creditors voluntary liquidation (CVL) is used for insolvent companies that cannot pay their debts. It is initiated by directors and involves a meeting of creditors, who then oversee the liquidation process. Members voluntary liquidation (MVL) is for solvent companies where directors can pay all debts in full. In an MVL, shareholders appoint a liquidator to wind up the company and distribute any surplus assets, often for tax efficiency.
How much does company liquidation cost in Dunoon?
The cost of liquidation varies depending on the complexity of the company's affairs, the number of creditors, and the asset structure. For a simple creditors voluntary liquidation, fees typically start from around £4,000 plus VAT, but a licensed insolvency practitioner will provide a fixed fee quote after an initial free assessment. Members voluntary liquidation costs are often lower, starting from £2,500, but always request a detailed breakdown.
Can I liquidate a company that has no assets or money?
Yes, it is possible to liquidate a company with no assets, but you will need to fund the liquidation costs personally, as the company cannot pay the liquidator's fees. If the company has no assets and no realistic prospect of paying its debts, an alternative is a compulsory strike off from the Companies House register, but this does not relieve directors of all liabilities, and creditors can object.
What happens to employees when a company is liquidated?
When a company enters liquidation, all employees are automatically dismissed from the date the winding-up order is made or the resolution is passed. The liquidator will calculate any redundancy pay, notice pay, and unpaid wages, and employees may be able to claim these from the National Insurance Fund (via the Redundancy Payments Service) if the company cannot pay.
How long does the liquidation process take in Dunoon?
A creditors voluntary liquidation typically takes between 6 and 12 months to complete, depending on the complexity of the asset realisation and creditor claims. Members voluntary liquidation can be faster, often concluding within 3 to 6 months. Compulsory liquidation (court-ordered) may take longer due to legal proceedings. Your liquidator will provide a timeline after the initial review.
What are the legal duties of directors during liquidation?
Directors must cooperate fully with the liquidator, provide all company records and financial information, and disclose any transactions that may be considered wrongful trading or preferences. Directors must not hide assets or continue trading while insolvent. Failure to comply can lead to personal liability, disqualification, or even criminal prosecution.
