Los Angeles Business Bankruptcy Attorney
Information on Business Bankruptcy
If you are a business owner who is struggling under debt, you may not be aware that there is a type of bankruptcy that is just for businesses and corporations that have a large amount of debt to pay off. Chapter 11 bankruptcy is a type of bankruptcy that allows businesses to stay open and in operation while operating under a structured repayment plan that allows you to pay off your debt while still remaining owner of your business. For more information on Chapter 11 business bankruptcy, contact a Los Angeles bankruptcy attorney from our firm today.
A Chapter 11 repayment plan is a great way to keep your business going while paying off your debts. Under Chapter 7 bankruptcy, all business assets are liquidated and the business is closed to pay off the creditors that the money is owed to. This process allows a business owner to get a full fresh start and be released from crushing obligations that cannot be paid. Under Chapter 11 bankruptcy, however, the business does remain open while one monthly payment is made towards the debts that are owed to the creditors. The business owner is still the owner and proprietor of the business, called the "debtor in possession," and after your debts are discharged, you can go back to operating your business with your debts resolved.
