Insolvency Practitioner
If your business is struggling with debt, facing legal action, or unable to meet financial obligations, a licensed insolvency practitioner will advise you and find a solution.
What Does an Insolvency Practitioner Do?
An insolvency practitioner (IP) is a regulated professional authorised to restructure or close down struggling businesses.
An IP can:
- Assess a company’s financial health and advise on the best course of action.
- Negotiate with creditors on behalf of the insolvent company, agree on payment terms and remove financial pressure.
- Manage formal insolvency procedures, including Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA), company administrations, and Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidations (CVL).
- Close a solvent company with a Members’ Voluntary Liquidation (MVL).
- Ensure all shareholders meet their legal obligations during insolvency and avoid the risks of wrongful trading.
If your business is struggling, finding an insolvency practitioner near you can assess your options and help you take action before it’s too late.
When do you need an Insolvency Practitioner?
- You’re struggling to pay suppliers, staff, or HMRC on time.
- Creditors are threatening legal action or you’ve been issued a winding-up petition.
- Your company has significant debts that you cannot afford to repay.
