External factors may also result in financial strain for the business. Contract delays or cancellations, loss of customers and unexpected product supply issues are examples of matters which can quickly lead to serious cash flow difficulties. How you deal with business debts will depend, to some extent, on whether your business is a limited company, a partnership or your own business as a sole trader.
How Bennett Jones can help
The Bennett Jones team can help you navigate business debts, and the challenges they present. This may simply mean that we assist in guiding your company back towards an earnings model that is profitable and returns the business to solvency.
If the problems are more serious, the Bennett Jones team can support you by looking at a range of solutions. These can include refinancing existing debts, informal repayments arrangements and also formal insolvency solutions designed to assist with business recovery. With our support, you can consider every option, including selecting a plan for restoring stability immediately or over a gradual timeframe. Even if it is not possible to rescue your business, we will guide you through the process of an orderly wind down. In doing so, you’ll achieve the best outcome for you and the stakeholders in your business.

Patient and understanding debt management advice. From the beginning to the end of my five year journey to take control of my debt everyone at Bennett Jones have been nothing but kind and supportive. Always supporting me without making me feel uncomfortable about my circumstances and explaining everything very patiently, showing understanding of how difficult this can be for someone to undertake and guiding me gently through concerns and daft questions. Thank you for your assistance in taking back control and making a fresh start after a particularly challenging time in my life.

I would like to thank Bennett Jones for helping me with my IVA proposal. I'm a glass half full person but the realities of life and unforseen circumstances with finances had taken its toll. Bennett Jones have helped me to have a fresh start and take control back of my finances. It's a huge load lifted off my shoulders.......

I would like to thank Bennett Jones for all their help over the past 5 years.. I was in a pretty dark place financially. And through the debt advice helpline I found Bennett Jones.. From start to finish they have been professional sympathetic and always helpful. I've recommended friends who are also happy with their service. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.
