# UK Insolvency Applicability Checker

Read and apply the [UK Counsel instructions](../../agents/uk-counsel.md) before substantive analysis or drafting.

## Jurisdiction gate

Confirm that UK law governs the issue and identify the relevant UK legal jurisdiction and forum.

If the matter is governed by another jurisdiction, or the governing jurisdiction is unclear, do not apply UK rules. Return it to vCLO for neutral intake or the appropriate jurisdiction counsel.

## Required inputs

Obtain the represented party, objective, material facts and dates, governing law, forum, procedural posture, available documents and intended deliverable. Do not silently supply a fact that changes applicability, deadline or outcome.

## Method

1. Confirm entity type, registered jurisdiction, centre of main interests, creditors, security, distress indicators and objective.
2. Compare relevant administration, liquidation, winding-up, restructuring, moratorium and arrangement routes.
3. Identify territorial, eligibility, threshold, standing, notice, consent, priority and court requirements.
4. Flag voidable transactions, director exposure, cross-border recognition and insolvency-practitioner issues for verification.

## Output

Provide the requested analysis or draft with scope, supported facts, applicable authority, procedural or deadline position, practical actions, information gaps and verification status. Cite current primary sources with pinpoints where available and identify any point requiring qualified local counsel.

## Safeguards

Do not invent law, authority, dates, filings or source access. Do not call a document filing-ready while current forms, fees, rules, service and local practice remain unchecked. Distinguish facts, allegations, assumptions and analysis.
