Chapter 13: Saving Your Small Business With Bankruptcy
A Chapter 13 bankruptcy allows those who file to consolidate all of their debts into one affordable monthly payment. The bankrupt individual makes these payments for the next three to five years, after which time any debt that remains unpaid may be discharged. Because you don't have to surrender any assets or property to creditors (with a few possible exceptions), Chapter 13 bankruptcy is ideal for small business owners.
Most importantly, you do not have to give up any property that is essential to running your business. We have represented owners of auto body and mechanic shops, day care centers, convenience stores and other businesses. We even represented real estate agents and agencies that are unable to sell properties in the real estate market following the subprime foreclosure crisis. We are able to help them save many houses that would otherwise be lost to foreclosure.
As bleak as things may look now, we can help improve your financial situation. Using Chapter 13's power of debt reorganization, you can save your small business by filing for bankruptcy.
