Frequently asked questions
What are the main types of company liquidation in Swindon?
The two main types are Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation (CVL) for insolvent companies, where directors appoint a liquidator to wind up affairs and repay creditors as much as possible, and Members' Voluntary Liquidation (MVL) for solvent companies, typically used to close a business and distribute assets to shareholders in a tax-efficient manner. There is also compulsory liquidation, which is court-ordered, but this is less common for voluntary closures.
How much does a company liquidation cost in Swindon?
Costs vary depending on the complexity of the company's affairs, the number of assets, and the level of creditor involvement. For a straightforward CVL, fees typically range from £4,000 to £8,000 plus VAT, while MVLs may be slightly less. We provide transparent, fixed-fee quotes after an initial review, so you know exactly what to expect with no hidden charges.
Can I continue trading while my company is being liquidated?
Once a liquidator is formally appointed, they take control of the company, and you cannot continue trading in the normal sense. However, the liquidator may allow limited trading to complete existing contracts or sell stock, but only if it benefits creditors. It is crucial to seek professional advice before making any decisions, as trading while insolvent can lead to personal liability for directors.
What happens to employees during a company liquidation in Swindon?
Employees are typically made redundant when liquidation is confirmed. The liquidator is responsible for ensuring they receive statutory redundancy pay, notice pay, and unpaid wages, which may be claimed from the National Insurance Fund if the company lacks funds. The liquidator will also provide necessary documentation for employees to claim their entitlements.
What are the legal duties of directors during liquidation?
Directors must cooperate fully with the liquidator, provide all company records and financial information, and refrain from taking any action that could prejudice creditors. They also have a duty to avoid wrongful trading, which means continuing to incur debts when they know the company cannot pay them. Failure to comply can result in personal liability, disqualification, or even criminal penalties.
How long does the liquidation process take in Swindon?
The process typically takes between 6 and 12 months from the appointment of the liquidator to the final dissolution of the company. The timeline depends on factors such as the complexity of asset realisation, creditor claims, and any investigations required. Your liquidator will keep you informed throughout, and you will receive a final report when the case is closed.
