Two reviews for Patrick in the same week! 👏

If you get in touch with us about liquidating your insolvent company, Patrick is one of the people you'll speak to first. He'll listen to your situation and talk you through your options honestly. Even if he thinks liquidation isn't the right route for your business, he'll always be upfront about it.

Well done Patrick on these fantastic reviews, and thank you to the clients for taking the time to write them!

If your company owes HMRC and can't pay, simply striking off the company is not an option as creditors will object and Companies House will reject the application.

The proper route is a Creditors' Voluntary Liquidation, where a licensed insolvency practitioner will sell the company assets, settle what they can, and any remaining unsecured debt is written off when the company closes.

You may be able to explore options to rescue and restructure your company depending on its financial circumstances. The options are explained in detail here: https://liquidationcentre.co.uk/knowledge-hub/hmrc-debt-liquidation/

Kerry recently instructed us to handle a Members’ Voluntary Liquidation and received the first distribution of funds within just a few weeks.

Closing a solvent company doesn’t have to be complicated, and as Kerry said in her review: “At first glance the process looks very daunting, but the team were very experienced and communicated each step clearly.”

A big thank you to Kerry for sharing her liquidation experience, and well done to Grace and Maisie for communicating the process clearly from start to finish.

Beefeater has announced the closure of all 106 of its restaurants, with Brewers Fayre sites closing too. The move will affect thousands of jobs across the UK and Ireland.

Richard Hunt, Director at Liquidation Centre, sees the Beefeater decision as a sign of the wider challenges facing casual dining rather than an isolated problem:

“The announced closures at Beefeater reflect the wider challenges facing the casual dining industry rather than an isolated issue. Many consumers are eating out less frequently due to the cost of living, while those who do are placing greater emphasis on value, quality and the overall dining experience. Businesses that fail to evolve alongside these changing expectations risk seeing footfall decline over time and become less profitable.

Closing underperforming sites can improve the financial health of a business, but it only creates long-term value if the remaining estate is stronger, more profitable and better aligned with what customers want."

Whether you're the employer or an employee of a company going into liquidation, it's important to clearly understand the process and what can be claimed.

When a company goes into liquidation, employees are typically made redundant. The liquidator writes to them with a case reference number, which they use to claim through the government's Redundancy Payments Service.

What employees are entitled to claim:
- Statutory redundancy pay
- Unpaid wages, up to eight weeks
- Holiday pay owed
- Notice pay

For more information on the liquidation process and whether directors can claim the same entitlements, read our liquidation guide here: https://liquidationcentre.co.uk/knowledge-hub/what-happens-when-a-company-goes-into-liquidation/

How do you pay for liquidation if the company has no money?

It's one of the concerns we hear a lot from directors, but there are usually more options than people realise.

Company assets - The liquidator sells any equipment, stock, vehicles or property, and liquidation costs are paid from those funds first.

Director redundancy - If you were paid through PAYE, worked regular hours and meet the qualifying criteria, you may be able to claim statutory redundancy to help fund the process.

Instalments - In some circumstances, a licensed insolvency practitioner can agree to spread the fees over time.

If you continue to trade while insolvent and incur additional debt, it can lead to you being held personal liable for those losses.

If cost is the thing holding you back from getting advice, we can talk you through your options with a free consultation.

"Can I use the same company name if my business goes into liquidation?"

The answer is not always a straightforward yes or no, but if you were a director before the company entered insolvent liquidation, there are restrictions on using the same name, or anything very similar, for a period afterwards.

Starting again after liquidation is possible, and plenty of directors do. But you should get the right advice before you make any decisions about your next company, including what to call it.

A more in-depth guide on reusing a company name after liquidation will be posted in the comments. 🔗

Needing to liquidate a company can be daunting, so it's important you're supported by a team that can help make the process feel simple.

When a client takes the time to leave a review like this and name the people who helped them, it really means a lot. Well done Grace, Faiza and Carriah. 🧡

As of 2023, there were approximately 5.13 million family businesses in the UK, but 69% of family business owners don't have a succession plan in place detailing what will happen to their business and who will run it after their death.

When family business owners were asked about their biggest concerns if they died without a succession plan, many feared family disputes, employees losing their jobs, the business closing altogether, or seeing the values they worked so hard to build disappear.

A succession plan isn't just about who takes over. It's about protecting your employees, your family, your customers and the legacy you've created.

If you're running a family business, is this a conversation you've had yet?

Trust is one of the most valuable things a business has, but it's also one of the easiest to lose. We asked 2,000 UK adults which brands they trust the least and why, and 1 in 4 people said cost increases were the main reason their confidence in a brand had dropped.

Here are the top 10 brands people said they're trusting less in 2026:

1. McDonald's - 15.50%
2. Tesco - 13.25%
3. Amazon - 11.55%
4. Asda - 10.85%
5. Primark - 10.85%
6. Starbucks - 10.60%
7. Apple - 8.90%
8. Greggs - 8.70%
9. Sainsbury's - 8.55%
10. Ryanair - 7.95%

If your business is struggling with rising costs and slower sales, knowing your options early makes all the difference.
