How can McTear Williams & Wood help?
- We can help negotiate with creditors including time to pay agreements with HMRC.
- We have a team of forensic investigators who specialise in tracing assets, establishing fraud and pursuing rogue directors on behalf of creditors.
- Clearly explaining the circumstances and outcomes of an insolvency.
- Above all we can provide confidence to creditors that the best outcome has been achieved.
If you have been registered as a creditor on an insolvency case we are handing we can provide you with our free access to our confidential Creditor Portal where you can download essential documents including creditor reports and other information specific to the case.
