Chapter 11: What It Is and How It Works

By San Diego Bankruptcy Pros  Apr. 18, 2011 12:23p

The success of our society depends in no small degree on the prosperity of businesses and many are having a rough time in the present economic downturn. It is important that businesses survive and in order to do so, some have found it necessary to file a Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

Chapter 11 Explained

A Chapter 11 bankruptcy is a debt reorganization process involving a business. The business can be small, medium or large and can include partnerships, sole proprietorships or corporations. In a situation that involves real estate matters, it can be used to catch up on past due payments, it can afford you time to sell property which may have equity in it or if there are back taxes owed that need to be paid off.

A Chapter 11 can enable you to keep your business running while gaining more control of financial issues. Chapter 11 bankruptcies can get complex as many financial details need to be addressed, especially in circumstances where large amounts of money and debt are involved. Challenges from creditors may come up and time frames for the bankruptcy must be met. Reports need to be turned in on a schedule and reorganization in many areas may need to take place.
