Winding up a business in Perth
If your Perth business is facing financial difficulty and can no longer meet its debts, Liquidation may be an appropriate way forward. Our experienced insolvency practitioners can help you understand the Liquidation process and what it means for you as a director, so you can make an informed decision about your next steps.
How Liquidation can help
Take the pressure off yourself
Creditors direct their questions to your liquidator, not you, once appointment takes place. Our St Georges Terrace team fields that contact.
Work through a Director Penalty Notice
Liquidation can reduce your personal exposure to company debt, depending on your individual circumstances.
Exit with everything accounted for
Assets are realised, creditors are paid in priority order and the company is formally deregistered.
Signs You Should Contact Liquidators
There’s no time like the present to prepare for tomorrow. If you are experiencing one or more of the following indicators, get in contact with our liquidators today.
Your next steps
Before anything formal happens, we work out where the company actually stands. The four stages below follow from there:
Assessment
We review your company's financial position, including how the financial difficulties developed, and explain whether Liquidation may be suitable.
Appointment
If you proceed, we prepare the required documents and support you through the appointment.
Realisation and reporting
The liquidator manages company assets, reviews creditor claims and completes required reporting to ASIC.
Finalisation
Once the company's affairs are complete, the Liquidation is finalised and the company may be deregistered.

FAQs
Debts owed to RevenueWA, such as payroll tax, are generally treated as unsecured debts. They are paid under the priority order in the Corporations Act 2001, after Liquidation costs and secured creditors. Employee entitlements, including unpaid PAYG, rank ahead of them.
Once appointed, the liquidator deals directly with RevenueWA about the debt recorded against the company ACN. If funds are available, unsecured creditors may receive a dividend. Some state tax debts can also affect you personally, so early advice can help you understand your position.
Sometimes. A liquidator may continue trading for a short period where this could improve the return to creditors, such as completing existing work or preparing the business for sale. Assets are also realised and amounts owed by debtors collected as part of the external administration.
Creditors can raise questions about that decision at a meeting of creditors. The liquidator also reports to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission against the company ACN. Where trading on is not suitable, the liquidator will bring the business to a close in an orderly way.
No. Your first conversation is free and confidential, with time to talk through your options with our insolvency experts before deciding what comes next.
It can help to have your ACN and any recent creditor letters available, including a statutory demand, so we can understand how far the matter has progressed. Business recovery may still be possible in some cases. If a director penalty notice or personal guarantee affects your own finances, we can also explain what that may mean for you.
