Intro Section

Directors face personal risks when a winding up petition is filed against their company. West London Law provides independent legal advice to shield directors from wrongful trading claims and personal liability.

The Personal Impact on Directors

A winding up petition not only jeopardizes the company but also puts directors at risk of personal liability. Wrongful trading, breach of fiduciary duties, and disqualification are real threats if swift action is not taken.

Independent Legal Advice for Directors

When your company is under threat, the interests of directors can conflict with those of the company. Our independent advice ensures that your personal position is defended without conflict of interest.

Defence Strategies for Directors

• Highlighting procedural errors in the petition
• Advising on risk management to avoid wrongful trading
• Structuring your personal and corporate finances to minimise exposure
• Representing you in any personal legal proceedings if necessary
