Early intervention is key

Once insolvency begins to set in it becomes incredibly difficult for directors to avoid breaching their duties.  Early intervention is the key to minimising claims that can arise from a breach of duty as well as achieving a successful outcome for a financially distressed business, its directors and shareholders.

Our new Directors’ Guide can help navigate around insolvency issues and avoid potential pitfalls. The guide has ten sections which walks directors through the issues they might face in a logical order as well as highlighting areas where action should be considered.

How can we help?

We offer a free initial advice meeting on a no obligation and confidential basis where we can provide suggestions to help ease cashflow, guidance on how you might safely inject working capital, areas to consider to avoid wrongful trading as well as how to protect the future of your business – but don’t delay – if action is taken early enough there is often a good chance that your business can be saved.  If there are delays in seeking advice and decline sets in the chances of success become more remote and formal insolvency can often end up being the only option.

What's next?
