Evaluating Your Options When Your Small Business Faces Bankruptcy

Our small business bankruptcy lawyer knows that running a small business comes with significant financial challenges. When expenses outpace revenue and debt becomes unmanageable, bankruptcy may seem like the only option. While the word “bankruptcy” can feel overwhelming, it’s important to understand that it is a legal process designed to offer relief and a chance to rebuild. We have 5 bankruptcy attorneys who can help support your case when you work with us. 

Considering Business Restructuring

For many businesses, financial struggles do not mean the end of operations. In some cases, restructuring debt can provide a path forward. Business restructuring involves renegotiating with creditors to modify payment terms or reduce the amount owed. This approach allows businesses to retain assets and continue operating while working toward financial stability. With proper legal support, this option can often be achieved without the need for formal bankruptcy proceedings.

Liquidation For Sole Proprietors Or Small Entities

Our small business bankruptcy lawyer knows that for sole proprietors and smaller business entities, filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy may be the most straightforward path to resolving debt. This type of bankruptcy involves liquidating non-essential business assets to repay creditors. Any remaining eligible debts are then discharged, giving business owners a fresh start. While Chapter 7 typically means the business will cease operations, it can provide a clean financial slate to pursue new ventures.

Reorganizing Through Chapter 11

Larger small businesses or those with complex operations may find relief through Chapter 11 bankruptcy. This process allows businesses to continue operating while developing a court-approved repayment plan. Chapter 11 provides flexibility to restructure debts, renegotiate contracts, and address financial challenges in a way that supports long-term survival. Though it is a more involved process, Chapter 11 can be a powerful tool for preserving the value of your business.

Considering Personal Bankruptcy For Business Owners

For business owners who are personally liable for their business debts, such as sole proprietors or partners in general partnerships, personal bankruptcy may be necessary. Filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy can address both personal and business-related financial obligations. Chapter 13, in particular, allows individuals to create a repayment plan to manage debts over time, potentially protecting personal and business assets in the process.
