Winding up petitions

A winding up petition is a deadline. What a director really needs is time.

Every day of the working week we stop winding up petitions and have them withdrawn. We also adjourn petition hearings or set up Company Voluntary Arrangements. 

If the hearing is this week

Ring us. We instruct experienced insolvency barristers in every Chancery Court in England. We are the leading source of barrister instructions in the UK... So you can trust us.

Monday to Friday, 9am – 4pm

Three ways out

There is more than one way to deal with a petition

Adjourn the hearing

We instruct insolvency barristers throughout all the Chancery Courts in England for the purpose of adjourning winding up petition hearings — which buys the time to collect money in from customers and satisfy the debt.

Or put a CVA in place

If the debt cannot be paid but the company is fundamentally a good one, we can arrange the implementation of a Company Voluntary Arrangement.

What a CVA gives you

Or have it withdrawn

Where an organised winding up of your company is the better route, we can often get the petitioning creditor to agree to withdraw the petition and allow a Voluntary Liquidation instead.
