Our Insolvency Services in Chorley
Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidation (CVL)
When your company can’t continue trading, we’ll help you close it down legally and correctly. A CVL protects you from further creditor action and brings clarity in difficult circumstances.
HMRC and Bounce Back Loan Debt
Behind on tax or unable to repay a bounce back loan? You’re not alone – and we can help. Our team provides straightforward advice tailored to your company’s situation.
Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA)
In some cases, your company can be rescued by negotiating a structured repayment plan with creditors. We’ll advise if a CVA is appropriate and manage the process end-to-end.
Director Redundancy Claims
Many directors don’t realise they may be eligible for redundancy pay if the company closes. We can help you make a claim and potentially reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
Business Rescue and Restructuring
We always explore if the business can be saved. Whether through time-to-pay arrangements, refinancing, or reorganisation, our priority is finding the best solution for your situation.
