Bankruptcy laws really do need to be tightened up.

My father was a subcontractor working for a developer in the late 80’s and this is essentially what happened.

My father, partially out of trust and partially out of a need for the work let his client run up a tab of $400,000.

One day his client was johnsmith, LLC who owed my father $400,000. The next day he was smithjohn, LLC who owed my father nothing.
