Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a Creditors Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) and a Members Voluntary Liquidation (MVL)?
A CVL is used for insolvent companies where the directors believe the company cannot pay its debts. It is initiated by the directors and shareholders, and a licensed insolvency practitioner is appointed to liquidate assets and distribute proceeds to creditors. An MVL is for solvent companies that wish to close voluntarily, typically for tax efficiency or retirement. In an MVL, shareholders appoint a liquidator to distribute surplus assets, and the process is usually faster and less formal.
How much does it cost to appoint a company liquidator in Henley?
The cost varies depending on the complexity of the company's affairs, the number of creditors, and the value of assets. For a simple CVL, fees often range from £3,000 to £6,000 plus VAT, but many firms, including ours, offer a no-win, no-fee arrangement. In an MVL, fees are typically based on the time spent and can be agreed upfront. We provide a free, no-obligation quote after reviewing your company's financial position.
Can I continue trading if my company is insolvent?
Directors have a legal duty to act in the best interests of creditors once a company becomes insolvent. Continuing to trade while insolvent can lead to personal liability for wrongful trading. It is crucial to seek professional advice immediately. A licensed insolvency practitioner can help you assess whether rescue options like a CVA are viable or if a CVL is the appropriate course of action to avoid further legal risks.
What are the responsibilities of a company liquidator?
A company liquidator's primary responsibilities include taking control of the company's assets, investigating the directors' conduct and the company's affairs, realising assets to repay creditors, agreeing creditor claims, and ensuring statutory reporting is completed. They must act in the best interests of creditors and comply with the Insolvency Act 1986. The liquidator also has the power to pursue legal action against directors for misfeasance or fraudulent trading if evidence is found.
How long does a company liquidation take in Henley?
The duration depends on the type of liquidation. A CVL typically takes between 6 to 12 months to complete, but this can be longer if there are complex asset realisations or legal disputes. An MVL can often be completed in 3 to 6 months if the company's affairs are straightforward. The liquidator must file a final report with Companies House and hold a final meeting of creditors or members before the company is dissolved.
Will I be personally liable for my company's debts after liquidation?
Generally, directors are not personally liable for company debts if the company is liquidated properly and no wrongful or fraudulent trading has occurred. However, if you have given personal guarantees for business loans or leases, creditors can pursue you personally. Additionally, if you have taken dividends while insolvent or misused company funds, the liquidator may seek repayment. Professional advice is essential to protect your position.
