Alameda County Business Bankruptcy Lawyer
Representing California Business Owners in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy
Alameda County • Contra Costa County • Pleasanton
Businesses in financial trouble need more than a bankruptcy lawyer — they need a business attorney who understands business practices, business financing, and the full range of options available to business owners facing significant debt.
At the Pleasanton, California, Law Offices of James G. Schwartz, our business attorneys can provide you with comprehensive analysis of your financial situation and the options available to you. We will review business obligations, current debts and revenue projections in order to develop a financial recovery plan. We can review business and personal finances side by side if these have been intermingled. Your recovery plan may include a business workout to minimize your monthly payment to creditors, Chapter 13 bankruptcy for more significant debt restructuring, or the sale or dissolution of the business to protect your personal finances.
The Law Offices of James G. Schwartz has been helping businesses in financial trouble since 1976. Contact us online or call 925-271-4460 to schedule a free initial consultation.
Chapter 13 Business Bankruptcy
The Law Offices of James G. Schwartz is a business law firm that does bankruptcy, not a bankruptcy law firm that sometimes represents businesses. As such we have a number of tools at our disposal to assist you. We never advise our business clients to declare bankruptcy unless it is truly their best option for debt relief.
Chapter 13 is a debt reorganization bankruptcy that can be used by business owners if they have not exceeded the debt limit specified by bankruptcy law. If you have an ongoing business that you wish to keep, Chapter 13 will help you reduce your overall debt load through a debt reorganization plan that does the following:
- Removes fees and fines resulting from late payments
- Reduces your overall debt load
- Strips liens from property
- Extends the terms of payment over three to five years
- Any debt remaining at the end of your plan is then discharged (if you followed the plan)
Before you take any further action, talk with a lawyer who can help you understand all of the options for dealing with your business debt. At the Law Offices of James G. Schwartz, our goal is to restore your business to financial health and/or to protect your personal finances.

We are a debt relief agency. We help people file for bankruptcy relief under the Bankruptcy Code.
