Liquidation
Liquidations Specialist Solicitors
Liquidation is a procedure through which the assets of a company are realised and distributed to creditors. Following the end of liquidation, the company is dissolved. There are three types of liquidation - which are as follows:
Compulsory liquidation
A company can be placed into liquidation by an Order of the Court where a petitioning creditor issues a winding up petition against the company.
Creditors Voluntary liquidation (CVL)
This is the opportunity for shareholders and directors to decide to close the business and appoint a Liquidator.
Members Voluntary liquidation (MVL)
Here the shareholders resolve to appoint a Liquidator and all of the liabilities of the company (including the expenses of Liquidation) are (usually) settled within 12 months.
If your business is encountering financial difficulties please contact one of our experts for a free, no obligation meeting to discuss your circumstances and the options available to you.
WINDING-UP
WINDING-UP PETITIONS
A creditor of a company can apply to the Court to close or wind up a company if it can't pay its debts as and when they fell due - which must be more than £750.
A winding up petition is an extremely serious action - and if not dealt with properly can have serious consequences for a company that has had one presented against it. A winding up petition could result in a company's bank accounts being frozen or the company being wound up. If you are considering presenting a winding up petition or you have been threatened or served with one please contact one of our experts as a matter of urgency to discuss your circumstances and the options available to you.
