In 2011 Griffin & King achieved over 90 per cent acceptance rate for Individual Voluntary Arrangements (IVAs), and in the process helped people with debts totaling more than £2.5 million find a way of resolving their debt problems.
Typical examples of situations where an IVA has helped
-
- Individuals who have professional qualifications such as Solicitors, Accountants and Independent Financial Advisors where bankruptcy could be career ending.
-
- Where credit cards have spiralled out of control.
-
- Sole traders who have an underlying profitable business which can be salvaged.
-
- Directors of failed companies where their personal guarantees are being called upon.
