Bankruptcy Software for the American Legal Community Since 1992
FreshStart
A debtor's documents are compiled/accessed from either the Data or Edit/View/Print tab on the debtor's Documents Menu.  The following screens are from an individual Chapter 7 (screens vary depending on chapter, filing status - i.e., business/consumer, company, individual, joint, joint-separated, etc.);  see the User Guide for an overview of file setup and Petition Exhibits.

The following sequence portrays typical data entry, document compilation, and retrieval.

1.  Schedule F is selected from the Data tab of the ddbtor's Documents Menu (finished documents have a > in front of them):

Data Input/Documents Screen

2.  The following data screen comes up after clicking Continue (you will immediately go to the screen in Step 3 if data has previously been entered):

3.  You have an opportunity to immediately review, edit, add to your entries:

4.  You can then either double-check, edit, or add to your entries; compile the form; or wait to compile or recheck your data later (Step 3 will come up when going back into a form which has previously-entered data):

FreshStart bankruptcy software features an interface which virtually eliminates the need to enter data directly into the document.  User prompts are confined to those essential for entering pertinent client information.  Forms generation, data manipulation, and statistical computations are carried out in the background.

All documents can be modified and added-to as required; and a blank or "None" form will be generated when a document's data fields are empty.  To facilitate data entry, all calculable numbers are automatically punctuated and converted to currency format when placed in final documents.

Schedule C exemption citations are selected/installed as needed for then-current debtor file.  Two exemption lists can be accessed; Federal and state (two state lists in California).  Also, commonly-used creditors (Schedules D and F) can be pre-loaded/edited.

An emergency Petition can be generated within minutes of opening a client's file.

A set of individual forms includes, but is not necessarily limited to, the Petition, Summary of Schedules, Summary of Statistics, Schedules A-J, Declaration, Mailing List, Mailing List Verification, Attorney Fee Disclosure, Mailing Affidavits or Certificates, Statement of Financial Affairs, Statement of Intent, Reaffirmation Agreement, Means Test, Credit Counseling, and /Financial Management course certificate.
