Dissolution, strike-off and restoration cover how a company ends its existence or returns to the register in England and Wales. A solicitor handles the formal steps to close a company, remove it from the Companies House register, or apply to restore a struck-off company. They advise on eligibility, prepare and file the required forms, serve notices, and liaise with Companies House and the Insolvency Service. The work matters because it finalises liabilities, protects creditors, and preserves or issues around any remaining assets.
Why this work is usually handled by a solicitor
The risk of inadvertent dissolution, or of errors in restoration applications, can create subsequent liability for mismanagement and delays in settling creditors. A solicitor provides professional accountability through regulatory oversight, professional indemnity insurance, and a protected client account, ensuring filings are correct and timely and that any restoration, if appropriate, follows proper procedure.
