Insolvency Lawyers

Blake-Turner were recently involved in placing a company into administration and subsequently selling the business to a third party. Upon realising that the company was facing insolvency issues the directors sought advice from an insolvency practitioner, and from Blake-Turner as their Insolvency Lawyers.

Both Blake-Turner and the insolvency practitioner are based in the City of London and worked closely together to achieve the best result for the company and its creditors.

Blake-Turner advised the directors in relation to the insolvency and administration procedure and prepared all of the paperwork necessary to place the company successfully into administration.

Shortly after the company was placed into administration it was sold to a third party. Blake-Turner prepared the sale and purchase agreement, a licence to use the certain assets and a licence in relation to the lease which the company had to occupy their premises. In order to achieve this, Blake-Turner worked closely with the administrators to ensure that they were satisfied with the terms of the sale and that their obligations to the company’s creditors were met.
