The Insolvency (England and Wales) Rules 2016 introduced extensive changes to insolvency practice, precedents and procedures - the biggest change to insolvency for over 20 years. Fully updated to take account of these new rules, which came into effect on 6 April 2017, Corporate Insolvency Practice is the only comprehensive 'how to do it' guide for solicitors and barristers to all the most common court applications in corporate insolvency.

Covering areas as diverse as winding up petitions to administrations to the reuse of company names, this practical and accessible book seeks to give the inside track on what the court will expect both in terms of practice and evidence. It also provides the busy practitioner with a range of useful precedents and checklists, and sets out key statutory and practice material for each application.

Packed with precedents, forms, checklists and statutory extracts, Corporate Insolvency Practice ensures you have readily to hand everything you need to prepare and present the most common insolvency applications. The new edition of this title will be an invaluable reference for all practitioners making insolvency applications in the Companies Court.
