Steven Petrie – decisive, engaging and constructive.
It’s a stressful time – for both the insolvent company and the creditors – but we’re here to help. You’ll have access to support from one of the largest insolvency teams in the North. Our specialists have technical expertise and experience from working with national insolvency market leaders including RSM, Mazars and FRP to advising directors of business of all shapes and sizes and acting for secured and unsecured creditors.
Meanwhile, our in-house creditor services team is on hand to advise you on what happens after someone who owes you money has gone into a formal insolvency process. We can help you lodge your claim, advise on the content of Voluntary Arrangement proposals, and help you engage with insolvency practitioners across the UK.
Through every step of the process, we combine honest approachability and strict confidentiality, to give you the full picture and all of the available options.
