Frequently asked questions
What is the role of a company liquidator in Stone?
A company liquidator in Stone is a licensed insolvency practitioner who manages the winding-up of a company. Their role includes realising company assets, settling creditor claims, investigating the company's affairs, and ensuring legal compliance. They act in the best interests of creditors (insolvent liquidations) or shareholders (in solvent liquidations) and are responsible for distributing any available funds according to legal priority.
When should I consider appointing a liquidator for my Stone business?
You should consider appointing a liquidator if your company is insolvent (unable to pay debts as they fall due) and you have no realistic prospect of recovery. Signs include mounting creditor pressure, statutory demands, winding-up petitions, or if you simply want to close a solvent company. For solvent closures, an MVL is often used to distribute assets tax-efficiently.
What is the difference between a CVL and an MVL?
A Creditors Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) is used for insolvent companies, where the directors initiate liquidation because the company cannot pay its debts. An MVL (Members Voluntary Liquidation) is for solvent companies, where directors swear a declaration of solvency and the company can pay all debts within 12 months. Both processes end with the company being dissolved, but the procedures and legal requirements differ.
Will I be personally liable for company debts after liquidation?
In most cases, no, as a director of a limited company, you have limited liability. However, personal liability can arise if you have given personal guarantees, engaged in wrongful trading, or acted fraudulently. A professional liquidator will assess your conduct and advise you on any potential risks. Taking early advice can help protect your personal assets.
How long does the liquidation process take in Stone?
The length of time varies depending on the complexity of the company's affairs. A simple CVL can be completed in 6-12 months, while an MVL may be faster. However, the liquidator must allow time for creditor claims, asset realisation, and the final dissolution with Companies House. Your liquidator will provide a timeline based on your specific situation.
Can I continue trading while my company is in liquidation?
No, once a liquidation order is made or a CVL is approved, the liquidator takes control of the company and trading must cease, except for limited actions necessary to preserve asset value or complete work in progress. The liquidator will advise on any permissible activities. Trading without authority can lead to personal liability for new debts.
