FAQs

Can an insolvency practitioner help before my business is technically insolvent?

Yes. Many Brisbane businesses engage insolvency practitioners while still trading, particularly when cash flow is tight or ATO arrears are growing. Acting early allows practitioners to explore restructuring, payment arrangements or recovery before formal insolvency becomes unavoidable.

Not necessarily. Many insolvency practitioners in Brisbane focus on stabilising viable businesses wherever possible. Liquidation is only one potential outcome. In many cases, options such as Small Business Restructuring, Voluntary Administration or a Deed of Company Arrangement (DOCA) can help manage creditor pressure, protect operations, preserve jobs and retain value.

Initial consultations are free at HM Advisory. From here, fees will depend on the complexity of the matter and the process required. As a partner committed to transparency at every step, your corporate insolvency practitioner will explain costs upfront, outline funding options and ensure fees remain proportionate to the situation.
