Help is On the Way for Attorney’s Backlogged in Bankruptcy Cases

PR Log (Press Release) – Nov 13, 2008 – It’s no surprise that due to the foreclosure crisis and the economic pressures on the average consumer, the bankruptcy load has increased dramatically within the last year and will continue to do so for some time. Therefore some bankruptcy attorneys are turning to a new field of assistance, the virtual bankruptcy assistant.

A VBA is an independent contractor that assists Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys with their chapter 7 and 13 petition preparations and electronically files them with the courts.  VBA’s are invaluable to the Attorney who may be just starting out his or her practice or to the attorney who has a small to medium size practice.  Professional VBA’s work out of their own home office and only under the direction supervision of Attorneys; they hold high ethical standards and do not practice UPL (unauthorized practice of law).  

One of the many benefits that are offered in outsourcing is the fact that the attorney will be able to hand off a lot of the administrative, client contact and data entry work to a specialist who is able to handle that for them. The attorney is then free to take on more clients or expand their practice in other areas. Another benefit is that there are no salaries, benefits, payroll taxes, or office set, therefore this keeps the overhead costs down.

National Bankruptcy Petitions is just one of many businesses out there that assists Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys.  For any questions or if you would like to speak to someone about outsourcing for your office, please contact National Bankruptcy Petitions at 760-693-1816.
