Selecting Bankruptcy Software

The best way to file your chapter 7 bankruptcy forms is to have it done Full Service for you.

 

NOT online software!!!

 

Guide to bankruptcy software

Bankruptcy software

The best way to prepare your bankruptcy is by having it done by an attorney or by a full-service bankruptcy preparation firm such as Bridgeport bankruptcy forms. But there are alternatives, namely bankruptcy software. Bankruptcy software comes in two flavors. There is online bankruptcy software and there is installable bankruptcy software.

Installable Bankruptcy Software

Not all bankruptcy software are the same. When you install any bankruptcy software on your hard drive, you give the bankruptcy software the right to also install whatever other programs, key-loggers, Trojan worms, tracker programs or spy ware that it wants into your computer.
It is quite simple. When you click the download button, your browser asks you if you trust the program. It asks you this because browser makers like Microsoft® and Apple® know that a lot of malicious spy ware are cleverly slipped in by apparently legitimate-looking companies.
Once you click, I Accept, the browser opens the doors of your entire computer to this outside company because you just said that you trust them with your life. This is one of the main reasons why you should avoid any bankruptcy software that gets downloaded and installed on your computer. But this is the least of your problems. Even when the installable bankruptcy software is not malicious, it is always a hassle to use and you are always better off having your bankruptcy forms prepared full-service by us.

Online Bankruptcy Software

If you have to use bankruptcy software then the best one to use is one that runs in your browser. Online bankruptcy software is used like any other plain text web page. You enter your bankruptcy information in an online questionnaire and the browser send it to the bankruptcy software one the server where it is converted to finished bankruptcy forms and emailed back to you. This is the safest way to use a bankruptcy software. Even then you are better off having us prepare your bankruptcy documents for you rather than using software. If you have to use bankruptcy software, then try the Guaranteed Bankruptcy Software.

Bankruptcy Forms Kits

A bankruptcy forms kit is a package of blank paper bankruptcy forms, an instructions sheet and gimmicks for reestablishing credit after bankruptcy. What typically happens is that you fill out an online application and the kit seller mails you the bankruptcy forms kit. From here on, you are on your own. You will have to spend a few weeks studying, planning and filling out bankruptcy forms. Some form kit sellers even have electronic bankruptcy bankruptcy forms kits, but before you get too excited, consider that they are the same as paper bankruptcy forms except that you have to already have Microsoft Word installed and you have to spend several weeks studying, planning and typing them. Also, they require you to disable your computer's virus protection and to install a program on your hard drive that could be lodged permanently in your computer's registry and that could affect your other programs.

 

We can complete your bankruptcy in
one day or in just a few hours.

And we back it with a 200% money-back guarantee.

 

Paper Bankruptcy Forms

Simply put, unless you are a paralegal or attorney, filing out paper bankruptcy forms can easily become a nightmare, even if your case is simple. Most people who start out with paper bankruptcy forms and kits usually give up after wasting 4 to 5 weeks. They eventually hire an attorney or paralegal and they do not get back the money they spent to buy the bankruptcy forms or kits.

Why is it so difficult to successfully prepare the bankruptcy forms by yourself manually? The answer lies in the following. A typical bankruptcy involves hundreds of pieces of information and there are dozens of possible variations or answers to each of the pieces of information, thus making for thousands of unique variations from case to case. Each one of these hundreds of bits of information has a specific relevance to your case. The questions are not multiple choice, so how do you know what the form is asking for? Yes, many of the questions are self-explanatory, for example, "What is your first name?", but what about the question, "What is the nature of your interest?". Would you guess that for real estate, the answer is "Fee Simple"? 

Finally there is the actual preparation of the bankruptcy forms, summarizing of all your information, maintaining several running calculations, understanding and computing the value of claim without deducting for collateral. When you are done you should end up with 10 schedules, several statements, declarations and notices, in all 30 to 50 or more pages of paperwork.

And then there is the United States Trustee working through the Standing Trustee who is charged with the responsibility of examining all of your information to see that everything is in order and that you are not abusing the system.

This is not to say that it is impossible to do it with paper bankruptcy forms. Yes, there are many attorneys that cannot prepare a bankruptcy because of lack of experience and there are individuals who have done it with some persistence and determination, but should you use paper bankruptcy software or kits when you can use a good bankruptcy attorney or bankruptcy software? That is up to you.

Bankruptcy Forms Software

At first glance, bankruptcy programs might seem a reasonable alternative to bankruptcy forms but on closer look there are many good reasons to very cautious. How long did it take you to master Microsoft Word or Word Perfect? Are you ready to spend weeks learning to use yet another bankruptcy software that you will never need to use again? Have you ever been scared that your computer was infected by a virus or that you had been hacked? Virtually all software writers give themselves a backdoor access to their programs just in case they need it and most of the time you do not worry about that access since you are dealing with well known software companies such as Microsoft and AOL. What about the authors of the bankruptcy programs? Do you know who they are? Just about every bankruptcy software company outsource their programming needs to outside programmers but where do they find these programmers? Many of these freelance bankruptcy software programmers work for other masters such as spam marketing companies and Trojan horse sites, the sort of people who trick you into downloading a worm when you visit their sites. When you install any program off the internet, you risk giving one of these guys a backdoor access to you operating system.

Professional Bankruptcy Forms Preparers

The only sane way to have your bankruptcy prepared is to have it prepared for you. Skip the hassle of bankruptcy software, skip bankruptcy programs and their inherent security risks. It really is just plain common sense. Yet you would be surprised how many people will ignore this advice and trash their computers with no-name bankruptcy software or get themselves bogged down for weeks fiddling with paper bankruptcy forms and kits. Let a professional who has prepared thousands of bankruptcies put their knowledge and resources to work for you.

If you have learned anything from reading this section on bankruptcy law, it should be that we know what we are talking about. Unlike most other bankruptcy software companies, as the saying goes, "we wrote the book". Let us prepare your bankruptcy for you. You will love our work and our low prices.

When you hire us for your bankruptcy, we provide you access to even more information on this topic including how you can keep assets that you did not think was possible.

You can hire a bankruptcy lawyer and pay lots of money to file your bankruptcy or you can file your bankruptcy online without an attorney or bankruptcy software. Filing chapter 7 bankruptcy forms does not mean that you file it from your browser. It means that you can have us prepare all the personal bankruptcy forms from the convenience of your web browser.

The big problem with filing personal bankruptcy using software without a lawyer or a full-service company like ours is having all those bankruptcy forms prepared with all the complicated personal bankruptcy laws to consider. If you were to try to file chapter 7 bankruptcy forms using do-it-yourself bankruptcy forms, you will be stopped by your lack of experience, and even if you have done this before, under the new bankruptcy laws, discharging your debts has become so much more complicated. Add to that the fact that the personal chapter 7 bankruptcy forms have almost doubled.

When filing personal bankruptcy forms online, you need list your debts and they may include credit cards, mortgages, medical bills, and more. In short the federal bankruptcy court wants to have a clear picture of your financial situation and bankruptcy software is hardly the way to go. If you have never filed personal bankruptcy before or if you cannot afford a bankruptcy lawyer, how are you going to know what to do? When answering the questions on the official bankruptcy forms how do you know if an answer you give will help or hurt? That is where we come in.

Preparing your personal bankruptcy forms using bankruptcy software, including the so called "online bankruptcy software", is just plain uninformed when compared to having it done Full-Service for you by an expert or by an attorney if you can afford them.

With the added complexity of the new bankruptcy law, you cannot afford to chance it by using paper bankruptcy forms or even personal bankruptcy law software. First, if you have never filed personal bankruptcy before, it could take you weeks to get the paperwork together, but more importantly, if you mess it up seriously, the bankruptcy law court could order you to re-file in six months and by then you would be filing under the new laws.

It is tempting to use one of those $45 bankruptcy forms packages or the do-it-yourself bankruptcy software downloads or even an personal bankruptcy software system, but times have changed and these are not the good old days.

Take a look at the 87 questions of the 6 page means test alone and no one will have to convince you that you cannot do it yourself with bankruptcy forms or software kits. It can only be done by a full service company or by a bankruptcy lawyer.

We prepare 100% of the official federal bankruptcy forms you will need to for a chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy
100% online without a bankruptcy lawyer in just one day or less

All you do is sign your name and file it.

Before You Start Filing Personal Bankruptcy and Before you select a Bankruptcy lawyer,  Compare And See Why We are Better

In any business, the best companies do not mind if you check out the competition first, because they know you will better appreciate their services if you have shopped around. The same applies with us.

If you insist on filing personal bankruptcy forms with a personal bankruptcy forms software then the best ones are Guaranteed Bankruptcy and Verant Bankruptcy. Filing online without bankruptcy lawyer with them is no where as easy as filing personal bankruptcy online with our service because we are full service and they are not.

They charge between $170 and $200 but that does not amount to much. Why? Because in the end, it is still only bankruptcy software and that means, do-it-alone.

You are not a personal bankruptcy expert, and no bankruptcy software is going to change that.

A better comparison for filing chapter 7 or chapter 13 bankruptcy online would be DebtorAid Personal Bankruptcy Forms and Zmt Personal Bankruptcy Forms Filing, the two most popular Full-Service online bankruptcy filing companies. You can decide to hire a bankruptcy lawyer.

We offer services similar to theirs but for a lot less.

We do not sell blank bankruptcy forms. We do not sell software. We do not sell kits. We do not sell templates.

My Trustee meeting was last week, and it was really unbelievable. We were one of ten parties meeting with the trustee.

Every other party had an issue: missing documents, wrong info, etc. The lawyers seemed useless, and were. When it was finally our turn, we had answers for each question, as well as all the documents. The trustee complimented us on being…

C.F.

The trustee was very nice and so impressed with my documents that he asked several other Court Officials to look at them.
