Bankruptcy and Restructuring

The Bankruptcy Code was created with an eye towards giving individuals and businesses a fresh start.  When an unexpected crisis results in debts in excess of assets and projected income, bankruptcy might be necessary to provide a clean slate.   In the current uncertain economic climate, the importance of understanding the niches of the Bankruptcy Code is paramount as ever.  Although the Bankruptcy Code provides numerous protections for both debtors and creditors, the process can be overwhelming and detrimental without proper legal direction.
