Bankruptcy law is also one of the most paperwork-heavy and deadline-driven areas of practice in legal, and one of the managerial aspects clients and law firms face is the deluge of client data, deadlines for courts, filings with the courts, schedules for court hearings, and correspondences with trustees and creditors. This can be overwhelming, even for an experienced legal assistant, lawyer, or paralegal. This holds true especially if the process is done manually and/or through antiquated systems.
These challenges are the driving force behind GSB LPO Services. A legal process outsourcing model that utilizes specialized bankruptcy case management software designed specifically to change how U.S. law firms process bankruptcy, while still focused on getting deals done better, faster, and cheaper. Our technology-driven process for legal outsourcing as a service allows law firms to scale their work without sacrificing compliance, client service, or profit!
Why Traditional Methods Fall Short in Bankruptcy Law
Handling bankruptcy cases manually can often result in:
- Missed filing deadlines
- Unorganized client data
- Inconsistent document preparation
- Increased likelihood of sanctions or penalties
- Burnout of attorneys and paralegals
Bankruptcy law allows no room for administrative mistakes—every deadline missed or filing made incorrectly opens the door for problems like delayed discharges, objections from trustees, and even malpractice claims.
This is when bankruptcy case management software, combined with an expert LPO team such as GSB, becomes necessary.
Bankruptcy Case Management Software: The Tools We Trust
To provide the best possible service, we utilize only the best platforms made for the practice of bankruptcy.
- BestCase: A highly-rated bankruptcy software program that automates preparing petitions, schedules deadlines for court dates, and connects to electronic court filing (ECF) systems for both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 filings. It is very reliable for both kinds of filings.
- JubileePro: A cloud-based program for managing a large volume of bankruptcy cases that includes an online client intake form system, integrates with e-filing (i.e., the court), coordinates communications with trustees, and includes an electronically secure client portal system.
- Cincompass: A complete bankruptcy management and CRM product that helps not only with filings, but also with advanced reporting and practice management reporting.
- Clio: Even though it is not a bankruptcy practice software, Clio provides great case management, document storage, and automation of workflow processes for firms pursuing many different operating practice areas (including bankruptcy).
Using these terrific tools will ensure every law firm we partner with can enjoy faster, compliant, and client-friendly case preparation processes.
How GSB LPO Services Optimizes Bankruptcy Case Processing
We don’t just use software; we leverage software to produce better outcomes. The following describes the workflow we have developed:
- Efficient Client Intake Process: We build secure and easy-to-use online forms via JubileePro and Cincompass. Clients can fill out and submit personal and financial information in 10-15 minutes while keeping their information safe.
- Document Preparation Process: Scheduling and preparing of filings like petitions, schedules, means test forms, and repayment plan proposals are built into systems like BestCase. You provide client information, and once we click to prepare, BestCase creates the documents with little chance of errors, and the process time is fairly quick.
- Tracking Deadlines and Compliance: We utilize the built-in docketing modules to track each critical filing deadline and court appearance. These modules will automatically alert us of deadlines while providing reminders in case they are missed. If we do our part to monitor everything, we will always comply with the rules and standards of practice.
- Seamless Electronic Filing Process: Our access to ECF allows us to file petitions and motions directly online with no paper or added staff time needed.
- Secure Client Communication: They can learn about the case from Jubilee Pro, or we’ll utilize encrypted email for sensitive communication. Clients have their dashboard to view case status, documentation, etc. We can eliminate 85% of the calls and emails we respond to just to inform clients.
- Data-Driven Reporting: We are currently using Cincompass and Clio to improve reporting on case status, filing issues, and even ongoing productivity information in real time. We want to give law firms concrete reason to alter operations.
Each stage is ultimately designed to decrease turnaround times, ease the burden of administration, and improve customer service.
