  • Request for an Accountant and Solicitor: Help with unlocking frozen bank accounts

    Can anyone help with direct assistance or recommendations for an Accountant and a Lawyer experienced in unfreezing frozen business accounts?

    A close friend has fallen out with his business partner over the running of their car mechanics business.

    It is registered at Companies House and has been in existence for just over a year. It is a limited company and no accounts have yet been filed.

    Companies House/the Inland Revenue have frozen the business account pending investigation.

    They have accused the ex-business partner of accounting irregularities in his own personal business.

    My friend’s business and bank account are legitimate but the ex-business partner is also named on the business account.

    My friend is totally innocent of this.

    It’s his business partner that was arrested but because their names are on the bank account, it affects both of them.

    My friend has no money to carry on the business, however there is money in the business bank account.


    Can someone help him with an ‘act now, get paid later’ service ?
     
    Please let me know if you need anymore information?
     

    Regards,

    I'd be surprised if anybody would consider it appropriate to recommend any particular firm here in the forum.

    Yellow Pages and Google spring to mind though.

      For Companies House and Inland Revenue to freeze accounts someone must have reported your friend whether it be true or not, it maybe a disgruntled custmer, employee or even his ex business partner.

      I will ask Mr T his views he is an accountant if in his opinion there is any milage in trying to persude Inland Revenue and Companies House to unfreeze his bank account.

      I will get back to you latter.

        Hi Luggerbugs,

        Thanks for your reply.
        I understand what your saying.


        Hi Tuttsi,

        I believe that you're right although I don't know who shopped him.

        Thank you so much.
        My friend is really feeling this and just wants things to get back to normal, at least for the sake of the business.

        Take care both of you! xx
