Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between CVL and MVL for Melksham companies?
A Creditors Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) is used when a company is insolvent and cannot pay its debts. An insolvency practitioner is appointed to wind up the business, sell assets, and distribute proceeds to creditors. A Members Voluntary Liquidation (MVL) is only for solvent companies where directors want to close the business formally, often to extract retained profits tax-efficiently. In an MVL, all debts are paid in full before the company is dissolved.
How much does company liquidation cost in Melksham?
The cost of liquidation varies based on the complexity of your company's affairs. For a straightforward CVL, fees typically range from £3,000 to £6,000 plus VAT, and these are often paid from company assets before creditors receive payment. MVL fees are usually between £2,000 and £4,000. Our Melksham practice offers fixed-fee quotes with no hidden charges, and we can discuss payment options during your free consultation.
Can I keep my business assets if I liquidate my company?
In a formal liquidation, the liquidator must sell all company assets to repay creditors. You cannot keep assets unless you purchase them at fair market value from the liquidator. However, you may be able to buy back assets like vehicles, equipment, or intellectual property if the price is acceptable to creditors. We recommend discussing your specific assets with us early to explore all legal options.
What are the legal responsibilities of directors during liquidation?
Directors must cooperate fully with the liquidator, provide all company records and accounts, and disclose any transactions that occurred in the period leading up to liquidation. You must not hide assets, destroy records, or prefer certain creditors over others. Failure to comply can lead to personal liability, disqualification, or even criminal prosecution. Our team helps you meet every obligation correctly.
How long does the liquidation process take in Melksham?
A CVL typically takes between 6 to 12 months to complete, depending on the complexity of asset sales and creditor claims. An MVL can be concluded in as little as 3 to 6 months if all debts are settled quickly. The process includes creditor meetings, asset realisation, and final dissolution with Companies House. We provide regular updates throughout and aim to conclude matters as efficiently as possible.
Will I be personally liable for company debts after liquidation?
In most cases, no. Limited liability protects directors from personal responsibility for company debts, provided you have not given personal guarantees, traded wrongfully, or acted fraudulently. If you have signed personal guarantees for loans or leases, creditors can pursue you individually. We review your personal exposure during the initial consultation and advise on the best course of action.
