Members of Silver Fox Legal 2024 Limited resolved to wind the company up voluntarily, with the London Gazette publishing both the resolution and the liquidator appointment on 4 June 2026.
The Bristol practice operates under the solicitors SIC classification and was previously known as Silver Fox Legal Limited, a name it held from incorporation in February 2013 until June 2024. A creditors' voluntary liquidation (CVL) is an insolvent winding-up resolved by the company's members at the directors' request, without a court order.
The resolution
The members passed the winding-up resolution, triggering the CVL process. The registered office at the time of both notices was care of Carbon Law Partners, Queen Square House, Queen Square, Bristol, BS1 4NH.
The liquidator appointment
Joint liquidators were appointed from Carbon Law Partners, whose Queen Square House address in Bristol is now the registered office for the practice during the winding-up. The notice confirms the appointment, though the full names of the individual liquidators were not reproduced in the extract available to this publication.
The officers
Martin Catton is the current director, having been appointed on 1 July 2024. Neville James Catton previously served as both director and company secretary from incorporation on 4 February 2013, with both roles ending on 1 July 2024.
Background

Common questions
Are you owed money by Silver Fox Legal 2024 Limited?
In a creditors' voluntary liquidation you are an unsecured creditor unless you hold a registered charge or retention of title. The liquidators will write to known creditors with a proof-of-debt form. A statement of affairs prepared by the directors and the chair of the creditors' decision procedure should be available on request. Read more about proof of debt and where you sit in the creditor hierarchy.
Did you work at Silver Fox Legal 2024 Limited?
In a CVL, employees are typically dismissed at or shortly after the liquidator's appointment. Wages owed up to a statutory cap, holiday pay, notice pay and redundancy may be claimable from the Redundancy Payments Service. The liquidators will normally provide RP1 case-reference numbers to the affected staff. See gov.uk: your rights if your employer is insolvent.
Do you hold a deposit, gift card or undelivered order from Silver Fox Legal 2024 Limited?
Customers with paid-but-undelivered orders, gift cards or deposits rank as unsecured creditors in the liquidation. Where you paid by credit card and the amount was over £100, Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act 1974 may let you claim from the card issuer for breach of contract or misrepresentation by the supplier; the rules apply per item, not per transaction, and the card must be a regulated credit card. Debit-card payments may be recoverable via chargeback.
Are you a director of a company connected to Silver Fox Legal 2024 Limited?
Section 216 of the Insolvency Act 1986 applies the moment the company enters liquidation. If you intend to be involved in another company using the same or a similar name within five years, you must rely on one of the three statutory exceptions and file the relevant notice. Acting in breach is a criminal offence and exposes you to personal liability for the successor's debts.
