Facing disqualification as a director?

Disqualification for company directors can last for up to 15 years and can have a devastating impact on a company director’s finances and future employment prospects.

We will discuss your available options and help you defend your case in response to claims by the Insolvency Service for director disqualification, including the option to negotiate downwards any voluntary undertaking.
