Insolvency Litigation is the process of recovering assets on behalf of creditors through court proceedings or other forms of dispute resolution.

Our specialist Insolvency Litigation team can assist with all aspects of contentious insolvency whether you are an individual, business or practitioner.

We regularly advise individuals and businesses on the presentation of statutory demands and petitions and can assist in the resolution of the same. Alternatively if you are struggling financially we can advise on options such as IVA's (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) or CVA's for businesses and can work with you to find a way through a difficult financial time.

If you are/have been a company director you may be presented with a claim following the winding up of your company. These claims may be as a result of wrongful trading, preferential payments or in respect of directors loans. Whatever the claim is our team will be able to advise on the merits of the same and assist in seeking a swift resolution.
