The assessments are often very wrong. In order to determine a course of action, there needs to be a best-case, worse-case assessment.
If the best-case scenario is manageable then we need to look at every way possible to reduce the amount owing and reduce the chance of the worst-case scenario
happening.
If the best-case scenario is not doable then we need to consider risk assessment, asset management, and a planned representation of the situation Insolvency forms and accounting to a licensed Trustee.
