The UK's insolvency legislations allows, subject to certain steps being undertaken, to transfer your the current business of your insolvent company into a new, completely debt-free phoenix company. The sale is fully agreed in advance, and subject to certain criteria and steps being taken, you can retain the old business name and seamlessly continue with existing contracts and customers, with all debts of the troubled limited company written-off.
In certain circumstances, the best form of business rescue is to use the Pre-Pack Administration procedure, as Pre-Pack Administration does not mean the death of the core business, but merely the end of the troubled limited company. Using the pre-pack administration process as a sword rather than a shield, the business can be restructured and seamlessly transferred to a new phoenix company, which can continue the trading activities, but which is completely debt-free, whilst being afforded protection from the actions of creditors seeking enforcement.
We will guide you through the whole Pre-Pack Administration process, from the outset until the company is ultimately dissolved, helping you through the potential pitfalls, yet ensuring that your core business survives with little or no impact. We will assist in the restructuring of the business, streamlining the core business prior to, and part of, the pre-pack administration process, ensuring that the business is in a significantly better position moving forward post-administration.
We can assist with the smooth, legal transition of the business from the insolvent company to a new, debt-free phoenix company.
Buy-back of the business (assets, contracts etc.) is agreed in advance
You purchase only the assets of your company that you want. You can 'cherry-pick' what assets, contracts etc. you want, and leave behind any non-productive assets and contracts. You will only pay a relatively small percentage of the inherent value of the business to you, as your company's assets aren’t worth much to third parties, so getting some value (albeit a 'fair and reasonable' one in the circumstances) from your new phoenix company is in most cases the best deal that can be obtained.

The phoenix company will seamlessly carry forward the trading of the business, with a fresh start free of any liabilities.
