Formal and Statutory Demands

Creditors tend to serve a Formal or Statutory Demand before commencing insolvency proceedings to wind up a limited company. Serving a Winding-up Petition after presenting a Statutory Demand will strengthen your case. But it isn't always necessary. We frequently recommend the issuing of a Formal Demand, which:

Outlines the amount and circumstances of the debt
Threatens the serving of a winding-up petition unless payment is made within 21 days

I&L helps creditors recover outstanding debts and invoices using powerful instruments such as Formal Demands, Statutory Demands, and Winding-up Petitions when appropriate in the instance of insolvent companies. Call 020 7504 1300 now for free and confidential advice...

Why Should They Pay?

Failure to respond to either a Formal Demand or a Statutory Demand could result in the winding up of a limited company or bankruptcy for an individual.

Winding-up Petition

You are free to serve a winding-up petition on a limited company 21 days after presenting your Statutory Demand. But only if:

The debt remains unpaid
No arrangement has been made to pay
The Statutory Demand has neither been withdrawn nor set aside

A debtor company that ignores a winding up petition may have its bank account(s) frozen.
