We
can help to restore a company that has been removed
from the Register of Companies at Companies House.
There
are two main reasons why companies are struck off the
register:
(a)
Required documents, such as accounts or annual return
have not been filed at Companies House. The reason
for this can be simply that the Company’s registered
office address was not updated following a move and
so official notices from Companies House were not
received, or
(b)
A director has applied for dissolution usually on
the basis that it has ceased trading and has no outstanding
debts
It
is often discovered sometime later that the company
needs to recover assets or wishes to continue trading.
Once the company is dissolved it no longer legally exists
and the assets are passed to The Crown (they become
Bona Vacantia), at this point the bank account becomes
frozen, leases, insurance policies, loan and finance
agreements etc may become invalid.
Since
the implementation of the last stage of Companies Act
2006, there are now two options available for restoring
a limited company to the Register.
Option
1 - Company Restorations
by Court Order
Option
2 - Administrative
Company Restorations
In
addition to the above methods of restoring a company
name to the register we are on occasion able to assist
you in making application to the Treasury Solicitors
for a Discretionary
Grant
