If a company finds itself unable to meet its financial obligations, it may reach a point where it decides to undergo a process known as creditor’s voluntary liquidation (CVL). In this situation, the company acknowledges its insolvency and recognises its debt to creditors. However, rather than waiting for external pressures to force it into liquidation, the company proactively takes steps to initiate the process itself. By opting for a CVL, the company demonstrates its commitment to addressing its financial difficulties in a responsible and orderly manner.
During a CVL, the company ceases its operations, and a licensed insolvency practitioner is appointed as the liquidator, ensuring that the company’s assets are properly liquidated and the proceeds are distributed among creditors in a fair and transparent manner.
At our firm, with our expertise and experience in CVLs, we provide comprehensive support, ensuring that the liquidation is conducted in compliance with legal requirements every step of the way.
A Company Voluntary Arrangement, or CVA, is a formal agreement between a financially distressed company and its creditors. Unlike traditional insolvency procedures, such as liquidation or administration, a CVA allows the company to continue trading while implementing a sustainable plan to repay its debts over a specified period.
One of the key advantages of a CVA is that it allows the company to negotiate reduced debt repayments, extend repayment periods, or even write off a portion of the debt, providing much-needed breathing space to restore financial health. Additionally, it enables the company to retain control over its operations and decision-making, allowing management to implement the proposed restructuring plan without the intervention of an external administrator. This can help to rebuild confidence among stakeholders, including employees, suppliers, and customers, and contribute to a smoother transition towards financial recovery.
However, it is essential to consider the potential disadvantages of a CVA as well. The company must meet the agreed-upon repayment obligations, which can place a strain on cash flow and require careful financial management. The success of a CVA depends on the cooperation and support of creditors, and if they do not agree to the proposed terms, the CVA may not be viable.
We understand the nuances of CVAs and can guide you through the process effectively, assisting you in negotiating with creditors, formulating a realistic repayment plan, and ensuring compliance with all legal requirements.

«An Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) is a formal agreement between an individual and their creditors to restructure and manage their debts. Unlike bankruptcy, which can have far-reaching consequences on an individual’s credit history and personal reputation, an IVA provides an opportunity to address debts in a more structured and controlled manner. It allows for the consolidation of debts, negotiation of reduced repayments, and extended repayment periods, offering a realistic and manageable path to debt recovery.
One key distinction between an IVA and a Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) is that an IVA applies to individuals, whereas a CVA is specifically designed for companies. While both arrangements serve the purpose of restructuring debts, an IVA focuses on the financial circumstances of an individual, while a CVA is tailored for corporate entities. With our expertise, we can guide you through the entire IVA process, from the initial assessment of your financial situation to negotiating with your creditors and formulating a realistic repayment plan.»

With the advantages it offers as an alternative dispute resolution (ADR) mechanism, international arbitration has gained significant popularity in recent years, providing a range of benefits that make it an attractive choice for parties involved in cross-border disputes. Firstly, it offers flexibility and neutrality, allowing parties to choose the governing law, language, and seat of arbitration. Compared to the traditional judicial process, international arbitration offers several advantages. One key benefit is the confidentiality it provides. Unlike court proceedings, arbitration allows parties to keep their disputes private, protecting sensitive business information and maintaining confidentiality. This aspect is particularly valuable when dealing with commercial matters that involve proprietary or commercially sensitive information
Efficiency is another significant advantage of international arbitration. The process can be faster and more streamlined than traditional litigation, saving parties time and costs. Arbitration allows parties to select experienced arbitrators who possess expertise in the specific subject matter, ensuring a more efficient and informed decision-making process. Choosing the right legal representation is crucial in international arbitration cases and we are happy to help.
