Asking questions on behalf of a business here, I'm only peripherally involved in any way.
Long story short - small business (LLC) is currently operational, but the sole owner just filed Chapter 7. I'm trying to find out how likely the business will be impacted, and if at all how it will be impacted.
I am aware that corporations enjoy some autonomy from the individual, but I'm also aware that bankruptcy laws have been "evolving" especially over the last few years. Given that it's a private business with essentially one controlling owner there is obviously some concern that the bankruptcy will take into account the ownership in the business. I'm fairly certain that the owner never even considered any ramifications and probably hasn't consulted any attorneys about that situation (yet).
Thanks for any input in advance.
