Common questions
What is the difference between bankruptcy and an IVA?
Bankruptcy is a court process that writes off most debts but involves surrendering assets and restrictions on your financial activity for typically one year. An Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) is an agreement with creditors to repay a portion of debts over a set period — usually 5–6 years. An insolvency solicitor can advise which suits your situation.
Can a company continue trading in administration?
Yes. Administration gives a company protection from creditors while an administrator attempts to rescue the business or achieve a better outcome than immediate liquidation. It's a tool designed to preserve value — not necessarily the end of the business.
What happens to my personal guarantee if the company goes into liquidation?
If you've signed a personal guarantee for company debts, those liabilities survive the company's liquidation and fall to you personally. This is a serious position requiring urgent legal advice — a solicitor may be able to negotiate with creditors or explore available defences.
How long does bankruptcy last in the UK?
Standard bankruptcy is discharged after 12 months, though restrictions on financial activity may continue longer if a Bankruptcy Restrictions Order is made. Certain debts (student loans, court fines, child maintenance arrears) are not written off by bankruptcy.
