I like to help people. My job as an insolvency practitioner allows me to do this in two ways.1. SAVING BUSINESSES - Helping directors whose business is facing financial difficulty. I want to lift the weight that it is often sitting heavily on directors’ shoulders as they grapple with the problems at hand. The outcomes that can be achieved differ greatly, but my job is to ensure that we find the best outcome in the circumstances and provide support to the directors to make the process as painless as possible (which is not to say it is always easy).2. SAVING DIRECTOR/SHAREHOLDERS MONEY - Releasing value from a company in a tax efficient manner. Whether it is due to retirement, the sale of the business or something else, using a solvent liquidation to close a company provides an opportunity for director/shareholders to utilise the lower tax rates & related reliefs available through a capital distribution rather than income via salary or dividends. We can quickly and cost effectively distribute money to shareholders to generate those tax savings.At Even Keel Solutions we relish the opportunity to use our wide range of skills, resources and experience to assess and review businesses with financial problems and find effective solutions.We often need to react quickly and decisively but do so with thoughtfulness and compassion.CLIENT COMMENT: "Andrew and his team guided us through the process calmly , professionally and in a confident manner, I would highly recommend their services." - from Google ReviewsREFERRING ACCOUNTANT COMMENT: "When clients come to us with concerns over the future of their company they are understandably nervous about the insolvency process and the idea of ‘being in trouble’. It is always then to their great relief, that when we introduce them to Andrew, they meet someone who takes a sympathetic and professional approach to the situation that they have found themselves in, and provides clear and concise advice on the best route forwards. We have worked with Andrew now for a number of years and trust him implicitly to look after our clients.”
