Insolvency

We deal with the issues that arise when a business or person is faced with early difficulties paying debts through to formal insolvency proceedings, liquidation or bankruptcy. By getting our team involved straight away these issues might be avoided altogether as we can assist with preventative support including credit management and contract reviews.

While a lot of our client work involves the threat of insolvency, there are others where a business requires advice on their insolvent position. We have the experience to know how to handle each, minimising risk to achieve the best possible solution.
