Insolvency

Our extensive practice acting for lenders on construction loans over the last ten years has exposed our solicitors to the coal face of insolvency litigation and given us the edge in strategic problem solving for our creditor clients.

We only represent creditors and do not act for companies at risk of insolvency or insolvency professionals. We assist creditors with strategic advice prior to entering into dealings with third parties that may become insolvent, as well as assisting them in their dealings with externally administered debtor companies.

We litigate on behalf of our creditor clients to:

1. Defend the receiverships appointed by our clients
2. Establish priority over charged assets
3. Have liquidators, administrators and receivers removed
4. Recover against directors and holding companies for insolvent trading
5. Recover possession of charged assets
6. Recover property subject to retention of title clauses
7. Recover unfair preferences
8. Resist the setting aside of a ‘statutory demand’
9. Seek Mareva injunctions to preserve assets
10. Seeks orders for judicial sale of land pursuant to equitable charges
11. Set aside deeds of company arrangement
12. Set aside voidable transactions
