Get Expert Advice

A Disqualification Order can prevent you from acting as a Company Director and have a devastating impact both in terms of your reputation and the ability to earn a living. It is for that reason that it is important to take advice from proactive expert solicitors who have experience and expertise in devising appropriate strategies to either defeat proceedings brought under the CDDA 1986 or to minimise the impact of a Disqualification Order or Disqualification Undertaking.

We Can Help

The first step we always take is to acquire a detailed understanding of the full background and assess the prospects of successfully defending the action. Simon Burn Solicitors can and will defend you if at all possible and have done so successfully for many clients, including clients in Scotland. Depending upon the particular factors in your case and your attitude towards litigation, alternative strategies can be explored such as offering an undertaking not to act as a Director. If this strategy is adopted then we can use our expertise and experience to negotiate acceptable terms for such an Undertaking.
