➡ Evaluating a financially challenged business’ status

➡ Determining when liquidation may be a better option than reorganization

➡ Guiding businesses through the process as efficiently as possible

➡ Helping businesses obtain the best possible resolutions to their financial challenges.

In general, liquidations may be the preferred option for a distressed business when:

➡ Reorganization will take too long or is not feasible.

➡ Creditors and/or bankruptcy courts do not approve a business’ reorganization plan.

➡ The business doesn’t have enough liquidity to cover the administrative costs of Chapter 11.

➡ The business can’t continue to operate through the course of bankruptcy.

When a Chapter 11 liquidation is the best option, a distressed business can generally expect the ensuing process to involve:

This will involve laying out the specific details of how the liquidation process will be rolled out, as well as how the proceeds from the liquidation will be distributed among the business’ creditors. Once a liquidation plan is in place, it will have to be approved by the courts and creditors.

This may involve selling all of a business’ stores and franchises, conducting store-wide going-out-of-business sales, auctioning off the business’ assets and/or selling of other corporate holdings.

This will usually focus on the distribution of the proceeds from the liquidation process and the finalization of the bankruptcy case.

It’s important to point out that:

➡ Liquidations can proceed in different manners, according to the nature of a business and its debts.

➡ When businesses don’t have the resources to manage their own liquidations, these cases may be converted to Chapter 7 bankruptcies (in which the court will oversee the liquidation process).

➡ Having an experienced business bankruptcy attorney to represent a distressed entity is crucial to facilitating this process and achieving the best possible resolutions from it.
