San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney discusses another Chapter 11 Success Story

San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney discusses another Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Success Story

Delphi Corporation, once the world’s largest auto parts manufacturer, is likely to emerge from Bankruptcy within the next few weeks. Delphi has refocused its product line to supplying powertrain components, connectors and wiring harnesses, and teamed other products and divisions.

With a large contribution from General Motors (GM) comprised of approximately $2 billion in cash and a $500 million loan, Delphi projects to be profitable within 12-18 months of emergency from Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

Utilizing the protections provided during the pendency of its bankruptcy, Delphi has been able to cut restructure its debt, dispose of underproducing plants and restructure its facilities. Delphi is expected to exit its CH 11 bankruptcy small but with a more global presence.

Delphi is another example of the benefits of restructuring through a Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding. Once a cash starved company teetering on the brink of collapse, Delphi now has the potential to emerge leaner and more profitable than ever before.

Sacramento Bankruptcy Attorney discusses the Pitfalls of Pursuing Voluntary Loan Modifications

Sacramento Bankruptcy Attorney discusses the Pitfalls of Pursuing Voluntary Loan Modifications

It has been predicted that there will be over 8 million foreclosures in the United States over the next four years. Thousands of people are trying to negotiate voluntary loan modifications with their lenders to prevent themselves from becoming a statistic. Unfortunately, the most recent data shows that less than 10% of the consumers who participate in voluntary loan modification programs actually receive a modified loan that results in a reduced principal loan balance. Current data also reflects that approximately 45% of strapped consumers who participate in voluntary modifications actually end up with higher monthly payments as a result of the modification. Consumers who modify their loans may also end up capitalizing their unpaid interest and fees, which get placed on the back end of the loans, and ultimately increases the consumer’s overall debt.

Even with all of the programs to incentivize lenders to make meaningful loan modifications to struggling consumers, the execution of these programs is falling short. Consumers are often given the “run around” or told to get further behind on their payments in order to receive assistance. Asking well intentioned consumers to intentionally fall behind on their payments or further damage their credit just to be given the time of day is patently unfair. Furthermore, many consumers voluntarily attempt to modify their loans for months before they are finally told that relief will not be granted. A serious restructuring of the voluntary loan modification process needs to take place in order to adequately protect consumers and provide much needed relief.

San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney Speaks About GM Bankruptcy

San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney Speaks About GM Bankruptcy

Just a few months ago, Chrysler filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy. On Monday, June 1, 2009, General Motors (GM) followed suit. From a historical perspective, GM has been a carmaker for about 100 years and was the largest carmaker for 77 years (until last year) The stark picture today has GM with $172.8 billion in debt with only $82.3 billion in assets. The US government has already “loaned” GM about $50 billion dollars which will be mostly converted into equity into the new company that GM will become.

Under the US Bankruptcy protection, GM plans to do many of the initiatives that were always recommended but impossible due to contracts, laws, and shear audacity of the plans because the other options (if the actions were not taken) would be to liquidate the entire company. Some of the actions to be taken within the next 60-90 will be the sale of unprofitable divisions like Saturn and Hummer. One of GM’s idle plants will be retooled to make smaller and more fuel efficient cars to meet the surge in demand for a greener lifestyle. Other countries are moving forward to aid GM’s foreign divisions like Saab and Opel. These actions normally would have rocked the company headlines and, if the stock reacted negatively, could have lead to proxy fights or corporative executive terminations that may have killed the initiative.

It is unclear how the new GM will do but Bankruptcy gives GM the chance to find out. While not every business needs to be as drastic as GM, even small business owners may discover that Chapter 11 Bankruptcy can provide them with the breathing space to implement the deepest most necessary changes to make their business profitable.

San Mateo Bankruptcy Attorney Talks About Loan Modification Attorneys

San Mateo Bankruptcy Attorney Talks About Loan Modification Attorneys

Due to the sub-prime mortgage crisis, millions of hard working consumers are facing problems paying their mortgages. With many of the adjustable loans about to “adjust” upwards, their difficulty in paying for mortgages will only get worse. As the fear of missing mortgage payment grows, consumers become desperate in their panic to save their homes. The confusing information coming from the government only adds fuel to the fire as there are daily messages that the government is releasing credit or passing laws that order lenders to work with their customers. From this mass confusion arises a new brand of unsavories preying on the uninformed.

The latest trend of mis-advertising is the “loan modification specialist.” These advertisers promise that lenders can have their loan modified to lower interest rates, place missed payments onto the back end of the loan, or even lower of principle. Although there are legitimate programs out there to help lenders modify their loans, the unscrupulous usually ask the nervous homeowner for money upfront then do little or no work on the case. The homeowner usually falls further behind because their precious mortgage money was paid to the specialist only to find out a foreclosure was started instead of a loan modification.

Lawyers are not immune to the lure easy money as well. Crafty loan modification scammers have been trying to “partner” with bankruptcy attorneys to get more money. The bankruptcy attorney is asked to put their name on the advertisement or even onto the loan modification service contract. Then the bankruptcy lawyer does no work while leaving it all to the “specialists.” These actions can be extremely unethical because the bankruptcy lawyer is fee sharing with non-attorneys, collecting fees upfront, or allowing the unauthorized practice of law, which are all not allowed. If a consumer hires a bankruptcy lawyer to do a loan modification then the lawyer is expected to make a good faith effort to provide actual legal services. Simply turning over the case to non-lawyers is not enough because the lawyer has no control over the quality of work being provided.

Therefore, any consumer considering hiring an attorney to do loan modifications should inquire who is actually doing the work. The consumer should also assume that any money they put forward will never be recovered. At the very least, consider consulting with a bankruptcy attorney to understand those options before paying somebody $3,000.00 for an unknown loan modification.

San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney discusses the Importance of Work Life Balance

San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney discusses the Importance of Work Life Balance

The Sagaria Law bankruptcy team attended a 2-day conference in Chicago, Illinois this past week. The theme of the conference was “Get a Life.” At first, the title seemed a bit abrasive. As bankrupcty attorneys, we are constantly striving to reach new goals and better serve our bankruptcy clients. We have massive amounts of deadlines and our actions have serious consequences for our clients. Telling us to “Get a Life” seemed a bit unfair.

However, after listening to the speakers over the course of the conference, it became exceedingly obvious that we all, in fact, do need to “Get a Life.” In any profession or career, a balance of work and personal time is critical to continued success. The speakers motivated us to streamline our processes and provided us with added tools to increase customer satisfaction and retention.

At Sagaria Law, we pride ourselves on our commitment to excellence in providing bankruptcy services to consumers, and in every area of our practice. With our new arsenal of strategies and techniques for improved customer service and greater efficiency, all of the bankruptcy attorneys and staff here believe we are on our way to “Getting a Life.”

Fremont Bankruptcy Attorney discusses GM’s historic Chapter 11 filing

Fremont Bankruptcy Attorney discusses GM’s historic Chapter 11 filing

Last week, General Motors (GM), once the United States largest private sector employer, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The United States government invested $30 billion to support GM through its restructuring process. The Government now owns approximately a 60% stake in the automobile company.

The goal of the Chapter 11 restructuring is to allow GM to cut its under-producing dealerships, unprofitable plants, and other dead weight liabilities. GM intends to emerge from bankruptcy leaner and with only its most profitable brands, dealerships and contracts. GM, with the assistance of the Obama Administration, has been negotiating with the United Auto Workers (UAW) union to decrease its labor costs and the high cost of its current benefits’ plan.

The GM filing comes on the heels of the Chrysler filing in April. The Chapter 11 bankruptcy filings for these two car companies will allow them to emerge stronger and more efficient to help them reclaim market-share. These bankruptcy filings should be viewed as a positive step towards the companies’ future of sustainable growth and profitability.

San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney Discusses G.M. Bankruptcy

San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney Discusses G.M. Bankruptcy

Now that sister company Chrysler has filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy, the US is waiting to see what General Motors will do. The question everyone is asking is will GM file for bankruptcy too? GM released their first quarter results which stated that GM lost $5.9 billion (excluding special accounting items) for the first three month period ending in March. GM had a 47 percent drop in revenue compared to the same quarter in 2008. GM built 903,000 fewer cars than it did for the same quarter of last year. This makes GM look less likely that it will survive instead of more viable because it is doing worse now than it did last year. All this is after GM had received almost $15.4 billion in federal loans as government bailout. At this time, GM has about $11.6 billion dollars in cash which should be just enough to keep operating and paying bills. GM spent $10.2 billion dollars of its cash reserves in the quarter which amounts to about $113 million dollars a day.

GM would be expected to file a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy to allow it to continue operating while trying to restructure its debt. GM would have to come up with a payment plan or restructure of debt to its creditors for approval. The Bankruptcy Court is unlikely to require an 100% requirement for the plan. This would create a very ugly battle for GM’s creditors as they would not have to be all treated equally. If enough of the creditors are wooed by a favorable plan, the “holdout” creditors may end up with pennies on the dollar. As a side note, GM bondholders are being offered GM stock in an effort to reduce the its debt load although very few people realistically believe GM will get enough converts to reached a manageable level of debt.

Sacramento Bankruptcy Attorney discusses the Phoenix Coyotes Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Filing

Sacramento Bankruptcy Attorney discusses the Phoenix Coyotes Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Filing

The Phoenix Coyotes recently filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection much to the chagrin of the NHL. The team has accumulated approximately $73 million in debt over the past 3 years. As part of the Coyotes’ chapter 11 reorganization plan, the Coyotes’ owner Jerry Moyes has proposed selling the team to James Balsillie, the Co-CEO of Research In Motion (RIM) Ltd. Balsillie has offered to pay $212.5 million for the team, which would pay 100% of the teams secured debt and $95.5 million to unsecured creditors. However, as a condition of the sale Balsillie wants to be able to relocate the team to Ontario, Canada.

This case is interesting because, as a member of the National Hockey League, the Coyotes would normally need the permission of the NHL and the other 29 team owners to sell and relocate the team. Moyes has attempted to circumvent this process by going directly to the Bankruptcy Court and proposing that the team be sold to Balsillie. The NHL is investigating the propriety of the Coyotes’ bankruptcy filing and vigorously contesting the sale of the Coyotes to Balsillie. Statements from the NHL have made it clear that the NHL intends to keep the team in Glendale, Arizona. The NHL intends to keep the sale of the Coyotes out the jurisdiction of the bankruptcy court and return the issues of relocation and sale to the League’s purview.

San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney discusses Lien Stripping

San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney discusses Lien Stripping in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy or a Chapter 13 bankruptcy

Debtors filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bankruptcy protection have the option to avoid junior secured liens on their property if their property is underwater. For example, if a debtor’s home has a first mortgage of $100,000 and a second mortgage of $30,000 but the property is only worth $80,000, there is no equity in the home to secure the lender’s second mortgage. Bankruptcy law permits debtors to “strip off or lien strip” the $30,000 second mortgage and convert it to unsecured debt. Once the loan has been “stripped” the debtor’s property will solely be secured by its first mortgage of $100,000.

The Obama Administration proposed a plan that would give bankruptcy courts the authority to “cram down” a debtor’s first mortgage to the fair market value of the property. In the example above, since the property is only worth $80,000, the first mortgage would “cram down” from $100,000 to $80,000 to reflect the property’s current value. That proposed legislation is currently stalled in Congress, but debtors remain hopeful for future relief.

Debtors who have already filed for bankruptcy protection and had their cases discharged are not precluded from this benefit. A debtor can petition the court to reopen their bankruptcy case in order to exercise their right to bring a motion to avoid a lien.

Fremont Bankruptcy Attorney discusses the benefits of a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing as demonstrated by Z Gallerie

Fremont Bankruptcy Attorney discusses the benefits of a Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing as demonstrated by Z Gallerie

Z Gallerie, the 30 year old home furnishings chain, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in April of this year. The filing allowed the company to voluntarily reorganize its operations to increase its bottomline by closing under-producing stores and relieving itself from liability on those leases. Z Gallerie also closed a distribution center to cut away additional dead weight. The company has sought the court’s approval for use of “cash collateral” to continue paying its vendors and employees during its reorganization process.

The company has not announced any additional store closings since its initial purge in March, and should be able to continue operating its remaining stores, website sales, and honor existing company programs. Z Gallerie’s revamping of its organization by disposing of poor performing stores will likely enable it to triumphantly emerge from Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

San Jose Bankruptcy Attorney discusses Requirements and Restrictions for Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcies

If you are considering filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy (liquidation) or Chapter 13 (repayment plan) bankruptcy protection there are a few requirements and restrictions that you should be aware of. While this is not intended to be an exhaustive list, it highlights some of the critical factors that all consumers should know.

1. Credit Counseling Requirement:

a. Prior to filing his/her petition for bankruptcy under any chapter the debtor must complete a Credit Counseling Course. The cost for these classes can range from $30.00 to $50.00 and must be completed prior to filing for bankruptcy.

2. Timing Requirement:

a. A debtor who has previously been discharged in a Chapter 7 must wait 8 years to file another Chapter 7 petition.

b. A debtor who has previously been discharged in a Chapter 13 must wait 4 years to file a subsequent Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition.

c. A debtor who has previously been discharged in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy must wait 2 years to file a subsequent Chapter 13 petition.


3. Residency Requirement:

a. A debtor must reside in a state for a period of 2 years prior to filing the bankruptcy petition to qualify for that state’s exemption laws. This law is intended to prevent people from moving to another state for the sole purpose of obtaining more favorable exemption laws.

Sacramento Bankruptcy Attorney discusses Chrysler, Vick and Cram Downs in Bankruptcy

Sacramento Bankruptcy Attorney discusses Chrysler, Vick and Cram Downs in Bankruptcy

Some creditors are balking at Chrysler’s Chapter 11 reorganization plan. They believe they would receive more in a Chapter 7 liquidation plan. In order for Chrysler’s reorganization plan to be approved by the bankruptcy court over the objections of a creditor class, the plan must “crammed down.” Meaning the bankruptcy court will have to tell the impaired classes that have refused to agree to the reorganization plan that they are out of luck. Recently, the Court refused to “cram down” Michael Vick’s reorganization plan because the Court did not believe the plan was feasible, without a guarantee that Vick would be making a high figure salary as a professional football player.

However, Vick didn’t have the backing of the U.S. Government. The Obama administration has proposed to finance Chrysler’s restructuring with $10.5 billion in loans. Canada would contribute $2.4 billion of that loan amount, but the rest would come from the taxpayers’ coffers. In addition to receiving another $10.5 billion in loans, Chrysler would also likely be relieved of its responsibility to repay the $4.0 billion loan previously made by the federal government.

The intent of the plan is to get Chrysler in and out of bankruptcy as quickly as possible. With the continued assistance of the federal government, the Court will likely approve Chrysler’s reorganization plan over the creditors’ objections.
