Chapter 7 is also called a “liquidation bankruptcy.” This is the type of bankruptcy where your nonexempt assets – if any – are liquidated by the U.S. Trustee, and the proceeds used to pay towards the claims made by your creditors. There could be a means test to determine eligibility which must be passed before filing this type of bankruptcy.

Chapter 13

Chapter 13 bankruptcy is commonly referred to as a “reorganization bankruptcy,” or more precisely a “debt readjustment”. However, the Bankruptcy Court will have to approve a Chapter 13 bankruptcy plan that will readjust your debts with your creditors. This is much more complicated than a liquidation bankruptcy, but the goal is the same – once you successfully exit bankruptcy your debts are gone forever.

Effective Small-business Bankruptcy Solutions

Small business owners often find it very difficult to file for bankruptcy. Building a small business comes with nurturing one’s hopes and dreams for the future. However, there may be a time when bankruptcy should be considered. Speaking with an experienced bankruptcy attorney about your alternatives can go a long way to bringing you peace of mind.

Chapter 7

As with personal bankruptcy, a business Chapter 7 is meant to immediately liquidate the debtor’s nonexempt assets. The U.S. Trustee takes charge of the business and immediately begins the process. Once the business’ assets are liquidated, the creditors which have filed claims with the court share in a distribution of funds.
Chapter 11

Filing for this type of bankruptcy is meant to allow a business with assets and some regular cash flow the time to restructure and reorganize, with an eye to eventually reviving the business. The business will continue operating without interference from creditors under the automatic stay and the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court.
Chapter 13

A business itself cannot file for Chapter 13. However, an individual or sole proprietor may file Chapter 13 to deal with debts due to running the business. This allows the individual debtor’s personal property to be protected, while at the same time allowing creditors to collect what may amount to a fraction of what is owed.
Chapter 12

Chapter 12 is a specialty bankruptcy available only to family-owned farms and family-owned fishing concerns. This type of bankruptcy allows farmers and fishermen to restructure their debt in order to avoid liquidation, repossession, or foreclosures. Talk with one of our bankruptcy experts to determine if this is the right bankruptcy for you.
Instant Relief

The immediate relief from debt in bankruptcy comes from the automatic stay. This prevents any further collections activity or lawsuits from the moment that your bankruptcy is filed. It doesn’t apply to all debts, such as child support, but you will find that it gives you instant relief, a chance to take a deep breath and see a clear path forward.

Bankruptcy is the only debt relief solution cited under the Constitution, backed by the power of our courts. It is the only debt relief approach that erases debt entirely, and allows people another “time at bat” to participate in our economy.

Bankruptcy Alternatives

When you review your financial situation with an experienced bankruptcy attorney, you might be astonished to find out that you don’t need to file for bankruptcy! There are other options available for your consideration. If, during your initial consultation, we feel that bankruptcy is not the best option for you, we will tell you so. We then can guide you to other solutions, such as debt consolidation loans, debt negotiation, and loan workouts.

Debt Consolidation Loan

If you qualify for a loan, it may be best for you to look into a consolidation loan and take care of all your debts with one payment to the bank.

Debt Negotiation

Some creditors are willing to negotiate the terms or amount of your loan rather than take their chances on what they might receive in a bankruptcy.

Loan Workouts

Particularly for people concerned about losing their homes to foreclosure, it is often worth talking to the lender about adjusting the terms of the loan to make the payments more manageable.
