Helping you make smart bankruptcy decisions

If a company has filed for federal bankruptcy, are they immune against small claims?

I want to sue a company that closed down because of an unpaid balance. However, I am not sure if they have filed for bankruptcy protection or not.

Assume that they have filed for bankruptcy, can I still sue them in small claims?

Wouldn’t you be ahead of the game to make a claim against them with the bankruptcy court? Unpaid balance makes you a creditor; possibly secured.
