Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
Chapter 7 bankruptcy involves liquidation and is used by businesses that do not have the resources to restructure debts and remain in operation. In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, assets are sold and used to pay creditors. All partnerships, limited liability companies, and corporations are eligible to file under Chapter 7, as well as certain individuals who operate small businesses as sole proprietorships.
Chapter 11 Bankruptcy
Chapter 11 bankruptcy involves the reorganization of debts. By reorganizing debts, businesses are often able to avoid liquidation and remain in operation. Chapter 11 reorganization can be tailored to fit the unique needs of a business. Chapter 11 has few eligibility requirements and is available to any business owned by an individual, limited liability company, or a corporation.
Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Chapter 13 bankruptcy is another option for restructuring debts. It is available only to small businesses owned and operated by individuals (sole proprietorships). Individual business owners must also meet certain eligibility requirements in order to file.
Non-bankruptcy Reorganization
Sometimes it's possible for a business to avoid bankruptcy altogether through skillful negotiations with the business' creditors. We will take the time to understand your business' financial situation and discuss your business' needs and goals. This way, we can work side by side with you to decide if non-bankruptcy business reorganization is a good option.
