The Problem
Experts from the Preston office of Real Business Rescue (part of the Begbies Traynor Group) were approached due to concerns over a number of loss-making branches. United Carpets were also involved in disputes with their landlords who were unwilling to enter into discussions over their rental agreements.
“I completed the simple on line form, received the free guide by email immediately and then a call from Tom who was so very helpful. Highly recommend this service”

The Solution
