Chapter 11 for Small Businesses

If your business is a separate entity such as a partnership, corporation, or LLC, you may still be able to reorganize your debts through a Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Chapter 11 is most often used by businesses like LLCs, corporations, or partnerships. In some cases, sole proprietors can file for bankruptcy if they are ineligible to file for Chapter 13 because of their debt level.

In Chapter 11, a business continues to operate while under the supervision of a court-appointed trustee and files a reorganization plan that outlines how it is going to deal with creditors. While the company is in Chapter 11, it can reform contracts, obtain financing, collect assets, and repay debts. Due to the complicated nature of Chapter 11 bankruptcy, it's critical that anyone considering it speak with an experienced lawyer prior to filing.
