At Bell & Company, we’re committed to delivering substantial financial relief to our clients. Last week, we shared how we assisted a client in saving £345,000 on an overdrawn director’s loan account. Today, we’re excited to highlight another success story where we achieved a £602,500 saving for a client facing personal guarantee exposure.
Pursued Years Later…
Our client found us after searching for help with Joint and Several Personal Guarantee issues online. Her case was a stark reminder of how personal guarantees can resurface years later with devastating consequences. Our client had briefly served as a director of a limited company and signed a personal guarantee, which she forgot about after stepping away from the role.
Fast forward to years later – she had relocated to another country, changed careers, and was suddenly pursued by a well-known lender for a £635,000 debt.
The stakes were incredibly high. Without intervention, our client faced bankruptcy or the loss of her buy-to-let property – outcomes that would have upended her life.
Strategic Negotiation
Our team took a strategic, hands-on approach to resolve her case. Navigating inter-jurisdictional challenges due to her relocation, we worked closely with solicitors to carefully document her financial position. By demonstrating her inability to pay the full debt – highlighting her career change, relocation, and limited resources – we successfully negotiated a commercial resolution.
The Result?
We settled the £635,000 debt for just £32,500 – a life-changing saving of £602,500. Our client was understandably worried and stressed throughout the process, but her cooperation led to a resolution that gave her immeasurable relief and a fresh start.
What This Means For You
This case underscores two critical points:
Personal guarantees can have lasting consequences, even after you’ve left a company.
With the right strategy, you can avoid worst-case scenarios and secure substantial savings.
If you’re a director facing business debt or personal guarantee issues, don’t wait until the situation spirals. Whether you’re dealing with a lender pursuing you for a guarantee or struggling with mounting financial pressure, we’re here to help.
