Liquidation isn’t the end of you. It’s the end of one company, handled properly. The costly mistakes happen before the appointment, not after. We help you understand what a liquidator will look for, get your position straight, and choose a practitioner that fits your situation — instead of the first one who answers the phone.
What a liquidator will look at
None of this is a reason to panic. It’s a reason to be prepared. Knowing what gets checked — before it’s checked — is the whole advantage.
- Director loan accounts and how they sit
- Payments made to some creditors and not others
- Asset transfers and sales in the lead-up
- Record-keeping and whether the books stack up
- Whether the company traded while insolvent
Why the right liquidator matters
Different practitioners suit different asset, debt and director-risk profiles. We’re not tied to one. We match the practitioner to the situation — which is something a firm that only refers to itself can’t honestly do.
Lawful, not dodgy
There’s a clear line between lawful restructuring and illegal phoenixing. We help people in genuine trouble — not people trying to dodge what they owe. Staying the right side of that line protects you.
What we’ll do
- 1 Understand the company’s real position and your personal exposure.
- 2 Map what a liquidator will likely find before they’re appointed.
- 3 Get your records and your story straight.
- 4 Match and coordinate a liquidator that fits the situation.
- 5 Help you close this chapter cleanly and move on.
Plain-English FAQ
Will I be personally liable?
It depends on guarantees, director loans, unpaid PAYG/GST/super and how the company traded. We map that exposure early so there are no surprises.
Can I choose my own liquidator?
In a creditors’ voluntary liquidation, yes — the choice matters, and we help you make it well rather than at random.
What about my other company?
It can be affected, especially through common debts or guarantees. We look at the whole picture, not just the one entity.
Isn’t this just phoenixing?
No. Lawful liquidation and starting again properly is legal. Illegal phoenixing is something else, and we won’t go near it. We’ll keep you on the right side of the line.
