Insolvency & Bankruptcy
Our Insolvency Team offer unbiased professional advice to individuals and businesses,
large or small, who have financial problems and we are happy to visit you at your
home or business premises.
Insolvency and Bankruptcy Advice
In many instances following a meeting with us, the situation has been found not
to be as bad as it appeared and problems are frequently resolved without the necessity
of a formal bankruptcy or liquidation.
If there is no alternative, however, to a Bankruptcy Order being made against you,
or your business being put into Liquidation, we can advise you how to do this and
help you through the relevant procedures.
If a Bankruptcy Order has already been made against you, your business has been
put into Liquidation or Administration or you or your business are the subject of
a Voluntary Arrangement, we can advise you of your rights and obligations.
We are also able to call upon, where appropriate, the services of one of our other
Partners, who has particular experience in acting for directors who are subject
to applications for disqualification under the Company Directors Disqualification
Act.
Insolvency Experts
Our Insolvency Team is headed by our Senior Partner, Peter Cropley, who is a Solicitor
and Licensed Insolvency Practitioner. Peter, who has over 40 years of insolvency
experience, was one of the first Solicitors in the country to obtain this qualification
after its introduction by the Insolvency Act 1986.
Peter is also one of the even smaller number of Solicitor Insolvency Practitioners
who takes appointments as Trustee in Bankruptcy and Liquidator. In addition to Peter
Cropley, our insolvency team includes Liz Hopkins, whose insolvency experience goes
back 20 years, Jonathan Blythe, who works closely with Peter Cropley, and Stuart
Farrar.
