Client Company Regains Control After Strategic Legal Intervention

This month, RSL LAW acted for a company director seeking to regain control of their business and secure critical new funding. The stakes were high: the client’s company was in receivership, and three properties were under charge to multiple lenders. A new loan offer had been secured – but the lender’s requirements were stringent, and time was not on our side.

Key Challenges

  • The company was in active receivership, requiring a carefully structured legal strategy to redeem existing charges and exit the process lawfully.
  • The properties securing the loan were spread across three separate titles, complicating the legal landscape.
  • The new lender imposed strict conditions, including watertight evidence that the incoming security would be free of any prior encumbrances.
  • We had to coordinate with multiple third parties – existing lenders, the receiver, and the new lender’s legal team – against a tight deadline.

RSL LAW Delivers a Solution

Our legal team took swift and strategic action. We began by conducting a comprehensive title review of all properties and prepared a roadmap for clean redemption. We worked closely with the lender’s solicitors, providing detailed documentation and legal justifications to overcome their extensive queries.

In parallel, we engaged the receivers and secured formal agreements and clear discharge statements for each of the existing charges. Throughout, we safeguarded our client’s position by ensuring all redemptions aligned precisely with the timing of the new loan completion – leaving no gaps in legal protection or security

The Outcome
  • All three property charges were successfully redeemed
  • Receivership formally concluded
  • Client regained full control of the company
  • New funding completed on time and in full compliance with lender requirements
