It's appropriate to consider commercial bankruptcy when your business is facing major financial difficulties, such as the inability to repay your debts or maintain profitable operations. A thorough assessment of your financial situation by a qualified bankruptcy trustee can help you determine whether bankruptcy is the best option for your business.

Commercial bankruptcy can have a number of different consequences, including the liquidation of company assets, the termination of current contracts, a reduction in the company's credit rating and the possibility of redundancies. However, it can also enable your company to start afresh on a sound financial footing.

A trustee in bankruptcy is a professional who plays a key role in the commercial bankruptcy process. He or she will guide you through every step, helping you complete the necessary paperwork, evaluate your assets and debts, communicate with creditors, and propose solutions to restructure your business or liquidate its assets in an orderly fashion.

The debts eligible for elimination in commercial bankruptcy vary according to various factors. Some debts, such as taxes, fines or support obligations, may not be eliminated. A trustee in bankruptcy will examine your situation and inform you of the debts that can be forgiven.

In a commercial bankruptcy, it's important to make a clear distinction between business assets and your personal assets. While business assets can be used to pay off creditors, your personal assets may be protected depending on applicable laws and regulations. A trustee in bankruptcy will explain the rules specific to your situation.

Commercial bankruptcy can have an impact on your relationships with suppliers and customers. Your suppliers may be concerned about getting paid, and may ask for additional guarantees or review the terms of their contracts. Some customers may also be reluctant to do business with a company in bankruptcy. However, a well-managed bankruptcy can make it possible to maintain positive business relationships, notably by renegotiating agreements or drawing up repayment plans with the parties concerned.
