Counsel Support. We understand bankruptcy practice.
With 10 years of experience in debtor and creditor bankruptcy practice, we understand the workflow and the process, the deadlines and filing requirements, as well as the variations of local practice standards and trustee preferences. We know that there's no such thing as a "simple" chapter 7. We know that no two bankruptcy cases and no two client are exactly alike.
Counsel Support offers a complete range of paralegal and support services for your consumer bankruptcy practice. As your Virtual Bankruptcy Assistant, we provide all the same services an in-house paralegal provides, with consistent quality and lower cost.
We offer services for attorneys using both BestCase for Bankruptcy and EZ-Filing software, and we also have an extensive library of well-tested motions and pleadings. Our experience ensures professional and reliable results, every time.
Whether you're an established bankruptcy attorney or just starting your practice, working with Counsel Support as your Virtual Bankruptcy Assistant will help you manage your practice more effectively.
We can handle the details of the case load and keep things moving smoothly leaving you more time to focus on actually practicing law. Even if you don't need us every day, we can help cover those short term needs like vacations and sick leave.
Counsel Support's Virtual Bankruptcy Assistance is available when you need it (and costs you nothing when you don't) to handle the demands of your bankruptcy practice.

Chapter 7
and 13We have over 10 years experience in preparing cases under both chapter 7 and chapter 13 before some of the most demanding judges and trustees in the country. We will review the information provided by your clients and ensure that information is complete, accurate and consistent. We'll even prepare a paystub analysis and calculate the chapter 13 plan.

Client Document Access*
As part of our service, we'll maintain copies of your clients case documents on our secure, private server for five years. Your clients can retrieve copies of their documents as often as they like during that time (a minimal charge applies for closed cases). No more digging through old files to retrieve ancient discharge orders! (*Our document system is currently in beta test, but will be available soon.)
