Corporate Insolvency Solicitors

Corporate insolvency in the UK primarily applies to incorporated companies experiencing severe financial distress. It encompasses formal procedures such as administration, liquidation, and Company Voluntary Arrangements (CVA), designed either to rescue the business or to facilitate an orderly winding-up of its affairs. Insolvency ensures creditors are treated fairly while offering a legal framework for restructuring or, if necessary, closing down the company.

What does corporate insolvency involve in the UK?

Formal insolvency procedures: Initiating processes such as administration, liquidation, or a Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) for incorporated businesses.
Restructuring or winding up: Either restructuring debts to keep the business operational or winding up the company to settle liabilities.
Appointment of insolvency practitioners: Engaging professionals to manage the process, protect creditor interests, and oversee asset distribution.
Regulatory compliance: Ensuring all steps meet the requirements of the Insolvency Act 1986 and other relevant laws.
Stakeholder impact: Balancing the interests of creditors, shareholders, and employees during the insolvency process.

How can a solicitor help with business insolvency, and what does it cost?

A corporate insolvency solicitor can:

Evaluate insolvency options: Assessing your company’s financial health to determine whether administration, liquidation, or a CVA is most appropriate.
Advise on restructuring strategies: Guiding you through recovery plans that aim to preserve value for all stakeholders.
Prepare and file legal documentation: Handling the necessary filings with Companies House, the Insolvency Service, and other regulatory bodies.
Represent you in negotiations and court: Advocating during creditor meetings, negotiations, or any required court proceedings.

Costs vary with the complexity of your situation, company size, and the solicitor’s expertise. Hourly rates generally range from £150 to £400, with fixed or staged-fee arrangements possible for specific tasks. An initial consultation—often free or offered at a reduced rate—can help clarify your options, estimate fees, and develop a tailored insolvency strategy.
