Licensing Body

Virgil H Levy is licensed to act as an Insolvency Practitioner in the United Kingdom by the Insolvency Practitioners Association (IP No. 19090). Mr Levy is a member of R3.

Rules Governing Actions

All IPs are bound by the rules of their professional body, including any that relate specifically to insolvency.

In addition, IPs are bound by the Statements of Insolvency Practice (SIPs), details of which can be found at here.

Ethics

All IPs are required to comply with the Insolvency Code of Ethics and a copy of the code can be found here. Alternatively, an overview of the code can be found here.

Complaints

At LABR we always strive to provide a professional and efficient service. However, we recognise that it is in the nature of insolvency proceedings for disputes to arise from time to time. As such, should you have any comments or complaints regarding the administration of a particular case then in the first instance you should contact the IP acting as office holder.

If you consider that the IP has not dealt with your comments or complaint appropriately you should then put details of your concerns in writing to Mr Virgil Levy and seek to formally invoke our complaints procedure and we will endeavour to deal with your complaint.

Most disputes can be resolved amicably either through the provision of further information or following negotiations. However, in the event that you have exhausted our complaints procedure and you are not satisfied that your complaint has been resolved or dealt with appropriately, you may complain to the regulatory body that licences the insolvency practitioner concerned. Any such complaints should be addressed to The Insolvency Service, IP Complaints, 3rd Floor, 1 City Walk, Leeds, LS11 9DA, and you can make a submission using an on-line form available here with guidance here; or you can email insolvency.enquiryline@insolvency.gov.uk; or you may phone 0300 678 0015 – details on call charges can be found here.

Bribery Act 2010 Policy Statement

The objective of this policy is to:

  • support the Practice’s stated policy that our business culture is one where bribery is never acceptable;
  • record the receipt and payment of any gift and/or hospitality; and
  • act as evidence of appropriate procedures to prevent bribery. This document derives from guidance provided by the Ministry of Justice which can be found here.

Policy Statement: Our Practice is committed to carrying on its business fairly, openly and honestly. Our business culture is one where bribery is never acceptable

  • Gifts, Payments and Hospitality

All individual gifts, payments or hospitality with a value over £200 must be recorded. All gifts, payments or hospitality with a cumulative value over £500 within a 12 month period must be recorded:

  • Policy on whistle-blowing

Policy Statement: Our Practice is committed to carrying on its business fairly, openly and honestly. Our business culture is one where bribery is never acceptable. Everyone in the Practice, whatever their level, is allowed full access to this record within normal business hours. In the event that they become aware of any reward, gift or hospitality being received or provided by anyone in the Practice they may check this record to see that it is duly authorised. If they identify any reward, gift or hospitality that has not been disclosed and authorised, they should, as long as that person is not connected to the matter, report in the first instance to their line manager. If their line manager is involved, they should report to the next manager in line above that level. If the recipient or provider is a partner or Director of the Practice they should report to another partner or Director. All partners and Directors of the Practice undertake that they will not take any disciplinary action or otherwise discriminate against anyone who raises a genuine concern about matters relating to the Bribery Act, whether the concern proves to be valid or unfounded and no matter what position in the organisation the recipient or provider holds. On receipt of any evidence that any gift, reward or hospitality has been given or received and not adequately disclosed and recorded, the relevant line manager, Director, or partner, will report the matter to the board or all of the members, excluding any Director or partner who may be involved in the allegation. The Practice will investigate the circumstances, giving the individual concerned an opportunity to explain the transaction and give reasons for not seeking appropriate authority. Any wilful failure to obtain authority for a qualifying transaction or series of transactions may be treated as a disciplinary matter, even if the investigation finds that the transaction was one that could have been authorised.

If the failure is significant enough to suggest that there may be an element of wrongdoing or bribery, it may comprise gross misconduct and could result in immediate dismissal.
