Our Services for Insolvency Practitioners

Insolvency Practitioners

At Morgan Phelps Solicitors, we provide comprehensive support to insolvency practitioners in their role as office-holders, covering both contentious and non-contentious matters.

We have extensive experience in contentious insolvency, including:

• Pursuing insolvency related claims (e.g. breach of duty / misfeasance, transactions at an undervalue, preferences, wrongful trading, fraudulent trading, overdrawn director loans, unlawful dividends, etc.)

• Asset realisation (e.g. possession and sale, IPO/IPA applications, delivery up applications, book debt recovery, etc.)

• Supporting investigations and obtaining necessary orders under sections 235–236 and 336 of the Insolvency Act 1986

• Our team is also well-versed in transactional and advisory work, such as:

• Administration appointments and applications (and the validity of these)

• Related court applications (including administration extensions)

• Business and asset sales (to include marketing and sales of claims)

• Security reviews and ROT advice

We understand the financial constraints insolvency practitioners often face. Where appropriate, we are open to considering conditional or speculative fee arrangements. We also work closely with litigation funders to explore alternative funding options.
