Answer: This loan would would have priority over the other unsecured claims in this bankruptcy case.

Explanation:

Since the trucks are secured collateral the loan is a secure loan. It will be the priority in the bankruptcy case since the other claims were unsecured. The law firm would have a right to the trucks since he owed them 20,000$ and put them up as collateral.

Everything that was an unsecured loan does not have anything to take from and will be a loss for the other companies who filed against Henry Anderson.
