Personal Insolvency

There are a number of forms of personal insolvency. The most appropriate for an individual will depend on whether they are an individual, sole trader or a partner in a partnership and the ability to pay creditors.

Personal insolvency is also a very emotive subject as it generally involves the family home and assets that have a sentimental value. For debtors considering making themselves bankrupt it can be difficult to discuss with anyone - their pride can come before a fall.

The types of personal insolvency are as follows:

• Bankruptcy
• Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA)
• Debt Relief Order (DRO)
• Debt Management Scheme (DMS) – not a formal insolvency process
• Partnership Voluntary Arrangement (PVA)
• Partnership Administration Order
