I have a promissory note that the president of an S real estate corp in florida signed promissing both that the corp and/or himself individually will pay 6 figure one year ago. The corp and the guy are about to file for BK I believe 13. How should I go about trying to collect. I hear that a promissory note is kinda like a mortgage and I would somehow have to get it recorded. Is this something I should try and do on my own? I also think he is on the line for alot of money already. Where would I be placed in line of everyone else. He is also terminally ill. What effect would his passing have on my trying to collect?
THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR ANY HELP
