BankruptcyPRO® is amazingly easy to use. As cases are entered into the program, they display on a central list. When you select a case, it is retrieved and available for data entry, exemption calculation, Chapter 13 plan calculation and printing.
Lookup other client information. BankruptcyPRO® exploits Windows fully. While in one specific case, you can open several data entry windows simultaneously and move among them. For example, you can work on the budget and Chapter 13 plan at the same time, making adjustments in each window. BankruptcyPRO® remembers the contents and position of each open window!

Corporate Filers Take Note!
There is no longer a need to chain your staff to keyboards overnight to get all the data entered for a large case. Even a single user licensee (the license includes one complimentary license) can share the work, and then combine the data into a single case. In addition, the second computer may be located at home (if you're a workaholic) and you can export the case to a floppy disk at the office, import it onto the home computer, work on it (with your feet up), and then export it back onto a floppy disk to take it back to the office. A floppy disk can hold approximately 50 cases, so you can make yourself very tired if you wish-but you'll get your cases filed in a timely manner. Both creditors and assets can be easily imported from other BankruptcyPRO® cases. Even better, if your client has their data in an electronic format, you can use the template provided on the BankruptcyPRO® CD to import that data directly into your case, reducing retyping errors. Call us if you need additional assistance. We'll be glad to help with the more difficult conversions. If you're preparing a business and personal case for the same client, or converting to another chapter and want to save the first version as a separate case, cloning the first case is a right-click away. You'll have an exact copy of the first case that you can modify to create the second one. BankruptcyPRO® has a built-in PDF writer, so you don't have to purchase a third-party package to generate files for Electronic Filing. By using the built-in PDF writer, you use less memory when creating your ECF files. We extract your Debtor information, create your Matrix in a text format, and create your schedules and plan in PDF format for easy uploading in one pass when filing electronically. FlashDOCS™ gives you the power and flexibility to create your own custom merge templates using the data already entered in BankruptcyPRO® without having to use a word processor. It creates your documents instantly, ready for printing or uploading! You can also save the output documents in PDF or RTF formats. RTF documents will go into your word processor easily if you decide you need to customize them further. For pricing information, click here.
