IVA’s

An IVA is a formal arrangement between you and your creditors and typically lasts for 5 years.

An IVA falls under the government insolvency act and is an excellent alternative to bankruptcy. Negotiations will take place on your behalf to agree one final balance which is paid over a period of no more than 60 months at a contribution you can afford.

How It Works

An IVA is a legally binding arrangement with your creditors which allows you to repay your debts in affordable monthly payments over a fixed period of time, usually five years.

Your IVA proposals are put forward to creditors in a document called proposals. The proposals are lodged into Court and your creditors also receive a copy. If your assets are at risk because of action taken by creditors, we can apply to court for an Interim Order, which means that creditors cannot commence or continue with any action against you and your assets unless the Court permits them to do so.

A meeting of your creditors is held and creditors are able to vote on whether to accept, alter or reject your proposals. As long as you proposals demonstrate a genuine desire to repay as much of your debt as you can afford, it is likely that creditors will accept your IVA. It is our role to guide you on what creditors will find acceptable.

Once your IVA is approved all interest and charges on your unsecured debt is frozen. If creditors accept that you can only repay a proportion of your debt, the balance of your debt will be written off as long as you keep to the terms of your agreement.

The case studies and testimonials provide a number of real examples of how we have used the IVA procedure to assist clients with serious levels of debt.

*Our advice is free; any charges for progression of an IVA are approved up front with yourself and your creditors. Missed payments can bring your IVA to an end and could result in bankruptcy. Your home is at risk if your IVA fails.
