Annabel's Experience
- Assisting an institutional lender with the enforcement of a number of personal guarantees as a result of debtor companies defaulting on the agreed payment terms.
- Acting for liquidators of a company in pursuing the former directors for repayment of the overdrawn directors’ loan account.
- Successfully applying for and obtaining declarations that a company was properly placed into Members’ Voluntary Liquidation in 2010, and then properly placed into Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidation in 2014, so the client was validly appointed as liquidator of the company in 2014. The application involved producing evidence in relation to the procedure and facts of the company’s MVL and subsequent CVL.
- Acting for the client as the petitioning creditor who was faced with an application to annul an individual’s bankruptcy order on the grounds that the bankruptcy order should not have been made. The applicant alleged that the debt upon which the bankruptcy order was based was disputed.
