This area covers the way a company in financial difficulty is handled in England, including formal insolvency processes and rescue options. A solicitor in this field guides directors, creditors and shareholders through options such as administration, restructuring, Company Voluntary Arrangements and liquidation, and helps prepare and lodge the necessary applications and documents with bodies like the Court and the Insolvency Service. They may draft and negotiate a restructuring plan, liaise with administrators, liquidators and creditors, compile schedules of assets and liabilities, and ensure the process complies with statutory duties and timelines.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles the provisions, procedures and interactions at the heart of corporate distress: drafting insolvency petitions and statements, advising on rescue mechanisms, negotiating with creditors, coordinating with administrators or liquidators, and managing the interplay with company directors and shareholders. They work with statutes such as the Insolvency Act 1986, the Enterprise Act 2002 and related rules, and interact with the Official Receiver, the courts, and potential pre-pack arrangements. Their involvement is often critical where a rapid, legally compliant exit or restructuring is required.

We used BTMK to remortgage one of the properties we own in our business. Being a solicitor myself, I know what I expect in terms of service from a law firm and BTMK met and surpassed those expectations. Their pricing is incredibly competitive and their communication was prompt and friendly. We were dealing with tight deadlines and a few hurdles which didn’t phase the team, with them offering proactive solutions. A big thank you to Hazel, Matthew, Irfan and Tobias. Would definitely use again and recommend BTMK.

Tagged solicitor Richard Clapham

I selected Downs Law to manage the sale of my company. It was clear from the initial consultation that Downs law has a very competent team of experts. Richard and his colleagues were excellent every step of the way - providing clear advice, being readily available when questions arose, and being extremely diligent in their duties. Couldn't ask for more.
