Chapter 11 bankruptcy is a common option for larger companies seeking to reorganize their finances and develop a payment plan to get them out of debt. However, Chapter 11 can be time-consuming, resource-intensive, and costly, making it a less desirable option for small businesses. The Small Business Reorganization Act passed in February of 2020 included Subchapter V, which softened some small business debtors’ restrictions and challenges. The CARES Act expanded Subchapter V eligibility by increasing the debt limit from just over 2.7 million to 7.5 million.
