A lawsuit, judgment, or lien is closing in
Once a creditor gets to judgment, your options narrow fast. A Chapter 11 filing can halt enforcement immediately.
An automatic stay stops collection calls, lawsuits, and repossession the moment a petition is filed — but timing and preparation determine whether reorganization actually works.
U.S. Bankruptcy Courts — Northern, Southern, Eastern & Western Districts of Texas · In re: Chapter 11 Reorganization — TX Debtor Relief
Chapter 11 (including Subchapter V) lets construction, energy services, real estate, trucking, and multi-location retail operators restructure debt, stop collection actions, and keep operating — on your terms instead of a creditor's.

Exhibit A — The Situation
If any of this describes your situation in Texas:
Once a creditor gets to judgment, your options narrow fast. A Chapter 11 filing can halt enforcement immediately.
Reorganization lets you restructure what you owe while keeping the business running and employees paid.
The automatic stay applies the moment a petition is filed, before a creditor can act.
Chapter 11 (and Subchapter V for smaller businesses) is built around a plan to reorganize debt and continue operating.
Exhibit B — The Process
We look at your debt structure, assets, and pressure points to determine whether Chapter 11, Subchapter V, or another path fits.
We identify priority creditors, prepare required schedules, and time the filing to maximize the benefit of the automatic stay.
Filing immediately halts most collection actions, lawsuits, and repossessions against you or your business.
We negotiate with creditors and draft a plan to restructure debt on terms your business can actually meet.
Once the court confirms the plan, you operate under its terms and exit bankruptcy with a sustainable balance sheet.
