An increasing number of wellness companies across the country have been choosing to restructure their finances through Chapter 11 filings. LIVV Naturopathic Little Italy, Inc, which faces several unsecured creditor claims, is the newest name in this backdrop.

Note: A Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing is a legal process that allows a business to reorganize its debts, restructure obligations, and continue operating while working toward financial stability. Under Chapter 11, a debtor typically proposes a plan to repay creditors over time, subject to court approval. A Chapter 11 filing does not necessarily mean a business is closing or going out of business. For additional information, readers are encouraged to contact the business directly.
