Grant Thornton are one of the larger firms who I believe have some form of relationship with CCCS for receiving referred cases. There is no harm in taking a second or even third opinion.
Interesting that CCCS are suggesting that you use another company, when they have an internal IVA department headed up by an insolvency practitioner.
I think Grant Thornton have had reasonable press on here.

Well it appears that an IVA is for you and appears the right solution. Speak to another IP and feel comfortable with them then you make the decision to whom to go with. Good luck.
