If your company has been wound up it is possible to apply to the Court for the Winding up Order to be rescinded. This application must, however, be made within 7 days of the date of the Order. It is important, therefore, that you take advice and instruct lawyers to act on your behalf urgently.

Our lawyers can accept urgent instructions to apply to Court to rescind a Winding up Order. Such applications require evidence of the company’s finances being put before the Court to demonstrate that the company is not insolvent.

• Acting for a building services company in connection with a successful application to rescind a winding up order made as a result of it having failed to attend the hearing where the company was cash flow insolvent but balance sheet solvent. The application resulted in savings to the company of circa £100K through debts collected, saved insolvency practitioners costs and saved ad valoreum duty.
