Many individuals file for bankruptcy because they are unable to repay debts owed to creditors. When they file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy, they are required to list all of their creditors.
Creditors not only include banks and other loan organizations but also any friends or family members who lent the filer money. Potential bankruptcy filers, however, could avoid listing certain creditors by repaying the debt before the filing.

Many companies prefer to think positive and believe that bankruptcy is not a possibility. However, as the recent recession has demonstrated, no companies are really immune to bankruptcy.
For this reason, many companies are advised to develop a bankruptcy contingency plan. Such a plan is to plan out worst-case scenarios and assess the legal liabilities related to those scenarios. These worst-case scenarios could result if a financially stable company loses a major supplier or customer.
