Absolutely.

Their bankruptcy only means they may get relief from paying their debts. It doesn't change your obligations at all. (If anything, it means it's harder for you to avoid them, because now, others - includinf the Court) are interested in making sure they get what you owe).

In fact, all that companys assets, (and your account receivable is one), will be used to pay what they owe...and the court will make sure all of those assets that can be collected are, and are used for that purpose.
