Protecting Directors from Personal Liability

Liquidators are incentivised to make claims on Directors personally…

The kind of claims we help you avoid…

Trading When Insolvent...

If you have continued trading for a significant period in hope of survival, but with a negative balance sheet s you can be pursued for trading while insolvent

Overdrawn Directors Account...

This is any monies you drawn other than by PAYE or formal Dividend and can often happen if you cease trading mid year

Preferential Payments...

This is where you have paid yourself or special suppliers but not HMRC or other Creditors perhaps because you have not anticipated Liquidating.

BBS Loan Misuse...

HMRC is pressing the Insolvency Service to seek recoveries for such errors as applying for more funds than your real turnover allowed or using the funds for thr wrong purpose.

Disposing of Assets...

To fund continued trading did you sell assets below a fair price or not to creditors benefit this too can lead to a personal claims

Transfering Assets...

To continue your business through a new company it is ESSENTIAL to make an approved agreement to transfer assets and IP and customer information, you may otherwise be made liable for all the closing company’s debts
