The White House, Greenalls Avenue, Warrington, WA4 6HL
The most recent insolvency notice for Ryans Solicitors Limited is a Dismissal of winding up petition, published 09 July 2026 in The London Gazette. The petition was presented by PREMIUM CREDIT LIMITED. The case is before the High Court of Justice, Business and Property Courts (case CR-2026-003671). The petition was listed to be heard on 1 July 2026 — a date that has now passed, and the Gazette notice is not updated afterwards. Its last accounts filed at Companies House, to 31 August 2025, showed total assets of £345k and net assets of £127k. A winding-up petition asks the court to close a company and place it into compulsory liquidation, most often because a debt has gone unpaid. If the court makes a winding-up order, control passes to the Official Receiver or an appointed liquidator, the company's bank accounts are frozen and its assets are sold to repay creditors.
The petitioning creditor is another company, so the debt behind the petition is a commercial one — typically an unpaid invoice, rent, or a judgment that went unsatisfied — rather than a tax liability.
