At Van Dyke & Associates, APLC, we have extensive experience representing small–to–medium businesses as debtors in Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings. Typically, our clients hire us to resolve complex legal and financial problems involving many parties. We understand you may have exhausted all other avenues to stay in business and need legal help to evaluate options under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. The ability to reorganize is the primary feature distinguishing Chapter 11 proceedings from Chapter 7 liquidation bankruptcies. Our firm assists entities in turning around their businesses and restructuring their debt, with a goal of continued operation minus the day-to-day burden of pre-existing debt obligations. By allowing a business to restructure or gain relief from its debts and its contracts with the breathing room offered by the Bankruptcy Code, a Chapter 11 proceeding can allow a company to start anew.

Whether your business is considering voluntarily filing a petition for a Chapter 11 bankruptcy or your creditors are forcing your company into an involuntary Chapter 11 proceeding, you will be dealing with a complicated process with stringent legal requirements. Choosing the right bankruptcy attorney is crucial to obtaining legal advice, guiding you through the courtroom complexities, and protecting the interests of your business and its owners. The attorneys at Van Dyke & Associates, APLC have over 40 years of combined legal experience in local, regional, and national commercial and bankruptcy cases, giving us the perspective and creativity necessary to help our clients achieve their reorganization goals.
