I have an IT service business set up as a single member LLC that I am dissolving at the end of the week. Some clients purchased prepaid blocks of service time that still have hours left, so basically I owe the client for unused time. No contracts were ever signed when the blocks were invoiced and purchased.
Which would be a better option:
1. Simply leave the clients hanging and not refund the remaining hours? I don't want to be a dead beat, but I simply don't have the cash to repay.
2. Have the LLC file for bankruptcy? Would this discharge debt owed to clients? The business has no other debt at this time.
