It was a huge relief to talk with Nicola Layland, and latterly Cheryl Richards, regarding financial burdens, and solutions. This was done with understanding, professionalism, expertise, sound reasoning and logic. It was light when there was none. I felt guided, and in good hands, having spoken to at least 7 other organisations prior to my contact with them. They acted quickly and efficiently, I was well informed along the way, and they managed to find and negotiate a financial solution/proposition, against all odds, that satisfied everyone, including myself, ultimately giving me time and space to fulfil my financial obligations over the next 3 years. Thank you both for your hard work and tenacity. Kim Ashley.

It was such a relief to talk to David Smithson and later Michael Woodward regarding liquidating my company. Michael was so helpful, explaining every stage; he was patient and understanding. I can happily recommend Leonard Curtis for insolvency advice and action.
Trustpilot
Obviously closing down a company is an unwanted and stressful situation to be in but Leonard Curtis (David in particular) have been really great. Very experienced and clear on the process, took care of everything and always quick to respond or pick up the phone. I've actually been really impressed.
Trustpilot
Approaching Leonard Curtis for advice, I found their approach and advice to be exemplary. They were responsive, listened to the challenge(s) and responded in a manner which inspired confidence and assurance with respect to an area of activity, in which I was a novice. Our advisor encouraged trust and when I needed assistance with something quickly, she responded in kind and with an additional contact, who was equally useful.
Trustpilot
When I wanted to close my private company as I no longer traded Leonard Curtis were recommended to me to handle the solvent liquidation. They proved very reliable and informative at all stages of the process. A very professional organisation and one I would be happy to recommend to any one looking to do the same.

As soon as Ben Bardsley took over our case everything moved along in a very efficient and orderly manner. He was very polite, helpful, and brought matters to a conclusion as soon as he was able. A very pleasant and competent gentleman!
