Corporate Insolvency Solicitors Manchester

Corporate insolvency is a situation that a business may face when experiencing financial difficulty. It happens when a company can no longer pay its debts, is unable to pay them when they fall due, or when its liabilities exceed that of its assets. If you’re dealing with corporate insolvency in Manchester, whether as an individual or a business, our expert corporate insolvency solicitors are here to help you find a solution that suits your needs.

At Farleys, our insolvency and restructuring team has spent years honing their skills. We act on behalf of administrators, receivers, liquidators, and insolvency practitioners alike. When a business is insolvent, it doesn’t necessarily mean it will need to liquidate. We provide expert guidance on how to turn things around and overcome the financial challenges you’re currently facing.

What is Corporate Insolvency?

Other financial legal advice

We also offer other services in our Manchester office if you need assistance handling consumer debts, trading liabilities, unpaid taxes and VAT, and wind up orders.

Insolvency Services for businesses in Manchester

At Farleys, our legal specialists provide insolvency guidance to businesses of all sizes, from SMEs to international businesses, covering a variety of formal insolvency procedures like liquidation, for example. The liquidation process involves selling any remaining assets that belong to your business to reimburse creditors and pay off any other debts, and it can take various forms:

  • Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) – A CVA allows unmanageable company debt to be paid back over a period of years.
  • Members Voluntary Liquidation (MVL) – An MVL involves distributing assets to shareholders as capital instead of income and can lead to lower personal tax rates.
  • Compulsory Liquidation – A court normally orders compulsory liquidation after a creditor petitions it. Directors and shareholders will be formally notified in writing of the initiation of these proceedings, typically by a winding up order or a statutory demand.

Our corporate insolvency solicitors know that the circumstances surrounding insolvency can vary greatly from business to business, so we’ll always take the time to understand your current situation and tailor our approach to suit your individual needs. We’ll always be clear and upfront with our suggestions and act in your best interest, recommending what we see as the best course of action for your business, whether that’s a voluntary liquidation or a turnaround strategy.

If you’ve received a statutory demand or a winding up order from the courts, we can help you navigate the situation and instruct you on the best way to respond to help minimise any further damage. No matter the specifics of your case, you can rest assured that we’ll always keep you in the loop.
