Corporate Rescue & Insolvency

Corporate Rescue and Insolvency Procedures
When a business is in distress, it can be difficult to know what to do and where to turn. At such times it pays to act quickly and get open and honest advice from professionals who will be able to expertly assess whether the business proposition or concern is viable. It may be that, given some breathing space, the business can be rescued and become sustainable in the long run. Otherwise, the best solution for all may be to wipe the slate clean and pursue a full liquidation of its assets.
Here at Hallmark Solicitors, we take the time to review each case and the objectives of those instructing us before advising on which of the insolvency or business recovery regimes is most appropriate.
Winding Up Petitions
A winding up petition is an issue of utmost importance to businesses either for those seeking to issue and present a Petition against an insolvent entity but equally for those seeking to avoid a compulsory winding up of their company.
We are perfectly placed and equipped with the skill set to advise on either side of the divide. Particularly, we are able to provide those facing winding up petitions, upon an examination of the issues, the best insolvency advice, defence and representation before any Court in England and Wales. We will help ensure you emerge from the liquidation process as personally and financially intact as possible.
