Coots & Boots is an independent insolvency and restructuring practice based in London. We help company directors across the UK take control of financial distress - whether through business rescue, managed exit, or formal insolvency procedures.

We advise on all key processes, including:

> Creditors’ Voluntary Liquidation (CVL)

> Members’ Voluntary Liquidation (MVL)

> Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA)

> Administration

> Time-to-pay agreements with HMRC

> Director redundancy claims

> Solvent group restructuring and strike-off planning

We’re known for being fast, direct, and pragmatic. Our goal is to bring calm, clarity and structure to what can otherwise feel like chaos. Whether you’re facing a winding-up petition, tax arrears, landlord pressure, creditor threats, or deteriorating cashflow, we act quickly to assess your real financial position and provide a plan directors, lenders, staff and stakeholders can get behind.

Unlike many other firms, we don’t delegate you to junior staff or call centres. Every case is partner-led from day one. That means company directors receive clear, honest advice directly from experienced Insolvency Practitioners - along with the one-on-one personal guidance they need at such a critical time.

We work primarily with UK-based SMEs: consultancies, manufacturers, construction firms, tech startups, professional practices, and owner-managed businesses with between 1 and 100 employees. We also support accountants, lawyers and brokers who need a trusted Insolvency Practitioner to refer into sensitive client situations.

All appointments are led by licensed Insolvency Practitioners and ICAEW Chartered Accountants. Our cases typically resolve in months, not years - and we’ve never handled an estate that failed to return a distribution to creditors.
