In 1885 George Poppleton and Charles Appleby, two of the founders of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales, started an accountancy practice specialising in insolvency. More than 120 years later, Poppleton & Appleby are still highly respected names in the specialist insolvency field. Our extensive experience, combined with a sensitive, client-focused approach, has helped us to become one of the UK's largest independent insolvency practitioners. Having offices in both Central Manchester and Huddersfield, with a strong network of insolvency offices and agents throughout the country, we have the knowledge and expertise to handle any insolvency situation and produce the best outcome for all of our clients. What do we offer? TRULY INDEPENDENT ADVICE As independent insolvency practitioners, we have no audit connection and, therefore, no allegiance to any individual trade creditor, bank or financial institution. EXCELLENT OUTCOMES FOR ALL We have a proven track record of delivering optimal outcomes in a diverse range of industries and asset values from thousands of pounds through to seven-figure sums. PARTNER-LED TEAMS Regardless of the size of your company or your business issue, your case will be handled by an experienced team led by one of our partners. A COMMON-SENSE APPROACH You will find us pragmatic, responsive, creative and, above all, realistic in our approach. We aim to find cost-effective solutions that maximise recovery, protect the interests of all parties and preserve businesses as going concerns.
