Business Bankruptcy Lawyer
With experience working in business bankruptcy, Thomas K. McKnight's team of bankruptcy lawyers offers more than just a "one-size-fits-all" bankruptcy process. Our team consults with you to consider all of your options-- both bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy-- and develop a solution that is specific to your kind of business, your personal liability, and the kind of creditors you're dealing with.
If bankruptcy is the right choice for your business our team can walk you through either:
- Chapter 11 Business Bankruptcy
- Chapter 7 Business Bankruptcy
- Subchapter 5 Small Business Bankruptcy
Each type of business bankruptcy has distinct advantages, but the option you pick depends on your individual goals, your business goals, and your business's unique situation.
When your business is swamped with debt and can't keep up with payments, business bankruptcy may feel like the only choice. But business bankruptcy is much more complex than personal bankruptcy. A one-size-fits-all strategy will not work. You need customized, experienced business bankruptcy representation. That's where we come in.
Chapter 11 Bankruptcy
A Chapter 11 bankruptcy enables a business to restructure debt while keeping business assets and revenue untouched. Also known as the "reorganization" bankruptcy, Chapter 11 makes it possible for your business to stay in business while working out payment plans with creditors. There are no debt restrictions, and a trustee is typically not appointed to run your company or handle your money, though one can be appointed if needed.
Chapter 7 Bankruptcy
Different from a Chapter 7 personal bankruptcy, a Chapter 7 business bankruptcy lets owners turn their business over to a trustee for an orderly liquidation. Often called the "liquidation" bankruptcy, a Chapter 7 bankruptcy ceases business operations and gives the court power to liquidate its assets and pay what it can to business creditors. When the liquidation is done and the proceeds have been paid to creditors, the company will not owe any remaining debts.
