If the following action are being taken by you or your company, it may be a sign that your business should consider bankruptcy, or should at least consult an experienced business law attorney to discuss your options to prevent your business from going bankrupt.
Signs that Your Business Should Consider Bankruptcy:
1. You are using payroll taxes for your business use between payroll and their remittance date, or worse, you are not paying them anymore.
2. You have not made your estimated tax payment for the quarter, or the quarter is approaching and you will not be able. Worse, you are two payments behind. While you certainly can re-estimate your tax payments to lower the amount, you do not do it.
3. You are using personal credit cards, personal lines of credit and/ or retirement funds to keep your business going.
4. You receive numerous debt collection calls and are past due on several bills.
5. You are losing money most months.
