Receivers’ and liquidators’ liability

The court appoints a receiver or liquidator to wind up a company in the event of bankruptcy. Although this is generally successful, things can sometimes go wrong. At Ploum, our specialists advise and assist creditors, supervisory directors and shareholders who are in dispute with a receiver or liquidator on the way in which the bankrupt company is being wound up. In addition, we advise and assist liquidators and receivers during disciplinary proceedings or liability proceedings. Our colleague Jeroen Princen has more than 20 years’ experience of bankruptcy settlements, which means he knows exactly what liquidators and receivers can or cannot do in various circumstances. Jeroen also helped to compile the practical rules at the Insolvency Lawyers’ Association (INSOLAD).
