01 Overview

What is Chapter 11 bankruptcy?

Chapter 11 bankruptcy is a legal process that allows businesses (and sometimes individual people) to reorganize their debts and operations while continuing to function. Unlike other forms of bankruptcy that might lead to liquidation, Chapter 11 allows businesses to restructure their finances, negotiate with creditors, and develop a plan to become profitable again - all while receiving protection from collection actions.

This type of bankruptcy is often used by corporations, partnerships, and LLCs facing financial difficulties but with viable business models that could succeed with debt relief and reorganization. Through Chapter 11, a business can reduce debts, renegotiate contracts, and make operational changes that would be difficult or impossible outside the bankruptcy process. An individual person may (more rarely) also file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy if they have too much debt to qualify for Chapter 13.

02 Benefits

How a business attorney can support your Chapter 11 bankruptcy?

Working with an attorney for Chapter 11 bankruptcy provides essential legal expertise and strategic guidance that can determine whether your business successfully reorganizes or fails.

Strategic bankruptcy planning

The timing and approach to filing Chapter 11 can significantly impact the outcome. Your attorney will help you prepare for filing in a way that maximizes the benefits of bankruptcy protection while minimizing disruption to your operations. They'll advise you on how to position your business for reorganization, including what steps to take (or avoid) before filing, to strengthen your case.

Navigation of complex procedures

Chapter 11 involves numerous procedural requirements, court appearances, and deadlines. Your attorney will handle these complexities, preparing and filing required documents, representing you in court hearings and creditor meetings, and ensuring compliance with all bankruptcy rules. This guidance helps prevent procedural errors that could jeopardize your case.

Development of a viable reorganization plan

The core of Chapter 11 is the reorganization plan that will guide your business moving forward. Your attorney will help you develop a plan that realistically addresses your debts while allowing your business to become viable again. They'll work with financial experts to create projections that satisfy legal requirements, negotiate with creditors for plan approval, and advocate for the court's confirmation of your plan.

03 Costs

How much does Chapter 11 bankruptcy cost?

Chapter 11 bankruptcy is a significant investment due to its complexity. Costs include attorney fees, court filing fees, and potentially fees for financial advisors or other professionals. At Lawhive, we believe in transparent pricing with no hidden costs – you'll know exactly what to expect every step of the way.At Lawhive, we believe in transparent pricing with no hidden costs - we don't charge by the hour like traditional law firms. You’ll know what you’re paying for each step of the way, with no hidden fees or surprises.

How long does the process take?

Chapter 11 bankruptcy typically takes between 6 months and 2 years from filing to confirmation of a reorganization plan. The timeline depends on:

  • The size and complexity of your business
  • The number and types of creditors involved
  • Whether creditors support or oppose your reorganization plan
  • How quickly you can develop a viable restructuring strategy
  • Court schedules and local bankruptcy procedures

Your Lawhive attorney will help you understand the likely timeline for your specific situation and work to move the process forward efficiently while protecting your business interests.
