Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between CVL and MVL for a Prestwich company?
A Creditors Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) is used when a company is insolvent, meaning it cannot pay its debts as they fall due. An MVL (Members Voluntary Liquidation) is for solvent companies where directors wish to close the business and distribute surplus assets. In a CVL, creditors control the process, while in an MVL, shareholders appoint the liquidator.
How much do company liquidators in Prestwich charge?
Fees vary depending on the complexity of the case, the size of the company, and the number of assets and creditors. For a standard CVL, fixed fees typically range from £3,000 to £6,000 plus VAT and disbursements. We offer transparent fixed-fee quotes before you commit, so there are no surprises.
Can a director of a Prestwich company avoid personal liability during liquidation?
Yes, if you have acted in good faith and complied with your statutory duties, liquidation can protect you from personal liability for company debts. However, if wrongful trading or fraudulent activity is found, directors can be held personally liable. Our experts help you prepare accurate records and demonstrate due diligence.
What happens to employees of a Prestwich company when it goes into liquidation?
Employees are automatically dismissed when a liquidator is appointed. They may be entitled to redundancy pay, unpaid wages, holiday pay, and notice pay, which can be claimed from the National Insurance Fund. The liquidator provides each employee with form RP1 and guidance on making claims.
How long does a company liquidation take in Prestwich?
A Creditors Voluntary Liquidation typically takes 6 to 12 months to complete, depending on asset realisation and creditor claims. An MVL can be faster, often 3 to 6 months. Complex cases with disputes or unregistered assets may take longer. We provide a realistic timeline after the initial review.
Can I keep trading if my Prestwich company is insolvent?
If you continue trading while insolvent, you risk wrongful trading claims against you personally. You must stop trading as soon as you know the company cannot pay its debts, unless you have a genuine plan to rescue the business. Seeking professional advice immediately is critical to protect your position.
