Limited Co and Divorce...Pls help me :)

[eyepeetee]

Thanks for all the replies guys....and sorry for the depressing threadt at crimble. I think I can take care of the VAT. Whilst they have been arses I have eventually been able to talk to someone sensible. The company is solvent and the bill can be paid if the bank acc is released so they should be cool....

Insolvency can be declared if I am unable to pay my creditors [ie mr vat] even if there is money there to do it.

Does anyone know anything about if I can, and how I can go about removing her from the company? The company, as with most, I essentially me. I set it up a long time ago and all she's doing is trying to use it as a way to get me into court over something else - fiddling the books or some HR dismissal type thing I am sure.

Fortunatley I did have a very good honest accountant. I say did, he wont deal with that company while she'd involved. I think she accused him if something random.

As for the sick leave and not coming back, you'e probably damn right. This is just a small part of a really nasty split. I feel that if I can sort this it's one less thing to think about.

New company and account on it's way. May get knocked down nut I'm gonna get back up again.

eyepeetee,

If there's barely enough money in the old Ltd Co bank a/c to pay the VAT bill, I see little problems for you. Once the VAT bill is paid I see few if any problems. When the original Ltd company registration falls due and is allowed to lapse it will be struck off the companies house register anyway. Why pay for an insolvency practioner ? With no money in its bank a/c & struck off the co.house register ... the job is virtually done. Just one more 'off the shelf' ready made company for someone else to grab .. no probs.

Who is the Co secretary of the old Ltd Co - your wife ? If so that is quite good ... leave her as Co secretary as it is the Co secretary who is legally responsible for filing the annual returns etc. I think you'll find she'll resign all of her own volition. If she's got any sense she will because you could create one hell of a lot of grief for the Co secretary otherwise.

The main thing is you've got a new Ltd Co & bank a/c on its way which is great - means your old accountant will come onboard again I'd imagine.

What a nice cheery Xmas thread!!

Mate, without doubt ring and speak to the VAT people asap. Also get a solicitor who deals with this sort of thing. You need to absolutely everything by the book.
Buffoon is right about her being as resposible as you for the company, but it sounds like theres no point trying to reason with her now.

Wha a ***** of a lass - I whole heartedly apologise on behalf of my gender.

And what exactly do we know about this split? For all we know he could have been beating her up

Does she display any evidence of mental illness?

As the 75% shareholder you can call an EGM and sack her as an employee and as a director.

Then you can take control of the accounts again and if she refuses to hand over company property you can get the plod in.

quite right, what do we know SA?? Most likely he's been shagging someone else and his wife is very angry ... if that is the case then can't blame her really !!

And this has what to do with the advice?

If you want to go on a man bashing session phone up all your girlfriends, rent bridget jones, get in the red wine and convince each other that you are not really back stabbing witches.

I prefer to think that most likely she is an over bearing troll that isnt going to amount to anything and can't make it on her own so has to feck up as much as she can on the way out.

Sockpuppet- keep your hair on, we were just answering SA post, also 99.9% off the threads normally to go off topic, why should this one be an expectation??

However, advice you want then advice you get:

Dear eyepeetee ... you must’ve done something to your wife to make her so angry and vengeful(I presume you left her or cheated on her, if it was she who cheated/left she wouldn't be so angry - ) hence my advice is humble yourself and apologise, tell her what a fool you have been, even if you have no intention of going back to her you have hurt her and she deserves an apology, just let her know you made a big mistake, and you behaved badly, being humble may calm her down and make her see sense !! admit your error and ask for forgiveness, tell her you wronged and you should just have been more honest about your feelings/broken marriage etc .. hope she'll calm down

Good luck , I know both of you must be suffering one way or another.

That is such a feemale thing to say....
