Working With Insolvency Practitioners
Process serving, asset tracing, fraud investigation and debtor intelligence for insolvency offices
Operational Scope & Legal Context
Insolvency appointments frequently require investigation — of the insolvent's conduct, assets, transactions and the conduct of those connected to them. We work alongside insolvency practitioners and their solicitors to establish facts, locate assets and gather evidence in support of officeholder duties.
We understand the context of insolvency work: the time pressure of petition hearings, the requirements of the Insolvency Rules, the duties of officeholders under the Insolvency Act, and the importance of documentation that can be used in misfeasance proceedings, antecedent transaction claims or criminal referrals.
Tailored Services for Insolvency Practitioners

Reporting & Evidentiary Standards
We accept instructions from licensed insolvency practitioners and their solicitors. We understand the officeholder's obligations and structure our investigations accordingly. Reporting is prepared with the Insolvency Service, the courts and potential misfeasance proceedings in mind.
