Here at 713 Training, we are often asked “Which bankruptcy software should I buy?”
Our answer is always “None…you don’t need to buy bankruptcy software”.
For starters, some of the bankruptcy software companies only sell their software to attorneys, requiring the attorney to be the one that pays for the software. Their license allows them to have an assistant draft their petitions though, so all that you have to do is download the demo version of the software the attorney is using, enter their license number, have the software download any updates that may be available, and you’re good to go.
There are bankruptcy software companies that do sell their software to VBA’s, but because they still require the attorney to have their own license, it’s like throwing your money away. Instead you can work for the attorney using his/her license when working virtually, just like you would if you were working in the attorney’s office, to draft the bankruptcy petitions.
Lastly, even if you did buy bankruptcy software, how can you be certain you bought the same program that your next attorney is using? Instead, as a VBA, you should save your money, not buy bankruptcy software, and use whatever bankruptcy software your attorney clients are licensed for.
As you go through our training, we want you to focus on how we teach you how to enter information into the forms and schedules of the bankruptcy petition and not get hung up on the bankruptcy software, as they all do the same basic function, which is to complete the forms and schedules of the bankruptcy petition.
