The updated amounts include Median Family Income Data, Administrative Expense Multipliers, National Standards for Allowable Living Expenses, and Local Standards for Transportation and Housing and Utilities Expenses.
We have also added the capability to pull credit reports from a third provider. We are very pleased to announce First American CREDCO as a new partner. You can contact them at (877) 213-6520 to set up a new account.
Added FlashDOCS™ templates as a new type of attachment to forms and schedules. When a template is attached, the attached document will be regenerated each time that form or schedule is prepared.
If you have already upgraded to Version 9.0, you will not need any new codes for the update. If you still haven't upgraded, you're using forms which are no longer compliant. You will need a new unlock code to upgrade from Version 8 to Version 9. We recommend you Check for Updates no less than every two weeks. We're always up to something!
As always, on a full version upgrade, you will need NEW UNLOCK CODES for each computer running BankruptcyPRO®, but this time the process should be much quicker. You should now be able to get your unlock codes by activating your computers on line! As you update to Version 9.0, you’ll be prompted for a new unlock code. Click on the Activate Online button to get your new code instantly!
BankruptcyPRO®
Our primary focus has always been on helping bankruptcy attorneys do what they do best—practice bankruptcy law—by providing the premier bankruptcy software: BankruptcyPRO®. With its many features, BankruptcyPRO® has been essentially a one-stop shop for the bankruptcy practitioner. It includes, in addition to the Official Forms, a powerful feature we call FlashDOCS™. FlashDOCS™ provides the ability to generate additional documents (e.g. motions, letters, etc.) using data already entered in the cases. The built-in document tracker provides an audit trail of documents generated in each case. For more detailed information, click here, or to try a demo version, click here.
BankruptcyPRO®'s new plan modification calculator
Is your Chapter 13 plan derailed? (Client missed a payment, client needs to surrender property, change in client circumstances?) BankruptcyPRO®'s new plan modification calculator can help. You can record the actual payments and distributions to date. Then use that data to help you calculate the plan modification and get your client's plan back on track! It doesn't have to take hours to do the math anymore.
BankruptcyPRO® includes a Means Test Calculator
Included with the BankruptcyPRO® software is a Means Test/Disposable Income Calculator. You can build a means test before adding a client to BankruptcyPRO® and then create a case from that means test when you are retained. The Means Test/Disposable Income calculators will walk you through entering your client's data and provide all the underlying data for median income, standard allowances, transportation allowances and housing and utilities allowances. This data is actually provided by the Census Bureau and the IRS via the United States Trustee's office. BankruptcyPRO® will do the math.
We help you calculate (according to the forms) whether there is a presumption of abuse in a Chapter 7, and what the disposable income and commitment period will be in a Chapter 13. We have the Current Monthly Income Calculation form for Chapter 11's too.

Get control of your ECF email with
I-Got-Notices™Patent Pending
Now I-Got-Notices™ can send calendar information to Microsoft Outlook®!
I-Got-Notices™ is amazing by itself and even better with BankruptcyPRO®. It receives your ECF e-mail and automatically calendars the dates in the notices on its built-in calendar. You can assign certain events to specific resources (e.g. attorney, paralegal, etc.) and set reminders for those items. The calendar looks and feels like Microsoft Outlook® and has the same flexibility. Show just your items, or those assigned to various others as well. I-Got-Notices™ runs easily on a network and (as much as we hate to admit it) you don't need to have BankruptcyPRO® to use it. It will still save you time and money in managing your ECF e-mail. A link with BankruptcyPRO® gives you the ability to add a case to BankruptcyPRO® from the notices if it's not already there and have the basic case style available for FlashDOCS™ for your Motions, Objections, proofs of claim, etc. You will have an audit trail of all the e-mails (and their linked documents) for any case in which you receive notices.
