What we do

Acquire. Restore.
Trace. Recover.

One engine, four applications. The same forensic and register work that prices a portfolio also brings a struck-off company back, finds the asset the Crown is holding, and tells a solicitor whether a defendant is worth suing.

01

Portfolio Acquisition and Recovery

We acquire portfolios of defaulted commercial receivables by assignment and pursue them as principal. Sources include insolvency practitioners, accountants holding aged debtor books, and commercial assignors seeking certainty. Recovery runs pre-action first, through structured payment arrangements, with litigation in our own name where required.

Company Restoration and Asset Recovery

When a company is struck off, everything it owned passes to the Crown: bank balances, property, freeholds, claims. We restore dissolved companies, administratively or by court order through partner solicitors, and recover what was inside. We also restore debtor companies for creditors whose debtor dissolved to escape them, and unblock sales and developments held up by a title in a dead company's name. Fixed prices, printed.

Tracing and Intelligence

Debtors, directors, shareholders, beneficiaries and guarantors, traced in the UK and overseas. Pre-action asset reports that tell a creditor or solicitor whether a claim is worth pursuing before money is spent issuing it. Estate asset tracing for executors. Evidenced director-conduct packs for insolvency practitioners. Fixed fee per instruction.

Forensic Analysis

The in-house forensic function underpins every line. At acquisition it prices claim quality and realisable value. In restoration it establishes standing, history and what the Crown holds. In recovery it identifies assets and builds the evidence that makes a position credible. We work from public records, corporate filings, land registers, court data and lawful private sources.

Approach

Quietly. Commercially. Properly.

Recovery is a commercial discipline before it is a legal one. Positions that succeed are built early, on evidence, and resolved before anyone reaches a courtroom. Litigation is a tool we know, not a destination we chase.
i.

Pre-action first

The most economically rational time to recover is before issue, and the most rational time to restore a company is before the Crown disclaims what it holds. We invest in the early phase, in evidence, correspondence and agreement, because that is where most matters resolve.

ii.

Evidence-led

Our forensic capability is what gives our work credibility on the other side of the table, whether that table belongs to a debtor, a registrar or a Crown office.

iii.

Properly bounded

We are a commercial recovery and consultancy business, not a law firm. Claims we own are pursued as principal in our own name. Client work is delivered as case management and consultancy, with reserved legal services carried out by independent partner solicitors. FCA-regulated activities sit outside our remit by design.
