What Is a Reorganization?
Reorganization is when a business makes substantial changes to ownership structure. The need for reorganization can be as simple as estate planning or asset protection, or as complex as a major investment round, stock sale or merger. Of course, in certain circumstances, reorganization may include bankruptcy under the supervision of the bankruptcy court.
Your reorganization may require the following changes:
- Buy, selling or closing divisions, locations, departments, etc.
- Offering incentives to key employees
- Adding investors
- Replacing/reducing management
- Merging or consolidating with another company
- Changing the structure or ownership of the company
Dissolution Through Chapter 7 Bankruptcy and Reorganization Through Chapter 11 Bankruptcy
In certain circumstances either a Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 business bankruptcy may accomplish your goals. Chapter 7 is a form of bankruptcy where the business is closed down and its assets are sold by the bankruptcy trustee to pay business creditors, but no liability discharge is given. Chapter 11 is a form of bankruptcy that generally allows companies to make significant changes to their operations and management without going out of business. It is the most complex and expensive form of bankruptcy, however, which is why we urge you to let us guide you through the process. In some case, Subchapter V of Chapter 11 can keep a small business operating at a much lower legal expense. With our help, you can navigate the requirements of Chapter 11 if it would work for you, and advise you on how to minimize your losses and maximize the likelihood of a successful reorganization.
