With the proper guidance and education, real estate can not only be fun but it can be very lucrative for you.

clients

clients. In debtor bankruptcy law an attorney normally has "John Doe public" as clients. There is a big difference between the two when it comes to money, power and prestige.
Matt: Did the paralegal who started The Lawyer Assistant actually develop the concept of the "virtual bankruptcy assistant"? It sounds like she is another "Erin Brockovich"?
Dennis: I was curious myself so I called her on the telephone one day. After speaking with Victoria Ring, I was convinced that she is definitely another Erin Brockovich (except she doesn't use fowl language.) In fact, I was so impressed that I offered her a job working for me to help build my bankruptcy practice. However, she explained that she had a strong dedication to the goal of training others rather than going back to the 9:00 to 5:00 world.
To find out more, I purchased her book: "How to Start a Virtual Bankruptcy Assistant Service" (ISBN: 0976159171.) It was one of the best training manuals

Dennis: No

Dennis: No. Only nine months after development, Victoria Ring (the sole proprietor) had a customer base of 56 attorneys. She was processing (on the average) of 125-150 Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy petitions every week plus running the company. Unable to find qualified people to help her, she was unable to keep up with the workload and sold the company so she could dedicate her time exclusively to training. That is when she developed the company, 713Training.Com, which is responsible for many of the experienced virtual bankruptcy assistants working today.
Matt: Who bought the company?
Dennis: It was sold to David Gonzalez, Esq. — an attorney in Bronxville, New York. However, after almost 2 years of operation, David's interests graduated to the corporate law arena. As you know — corporate law is often more financially rewarding compared to debtor bankruptcy law. In corporate law an attorney has large businesses and corporations as

Matt: But not all attorneys remained

Matt: But not all attorneys remained "behind the times." Have internet-savvy bankruptcy attorneys used virtual bankruptcy assistants in the past?
Dennis: Yes. The first internet-based company offering virtual bankruptcy assistant service was The Lawyer Assistant. Like I said before, the term "virtual" was not used back then so The Lawyer Assistant marketed its services under the more widely used term at the time: "bankruptcy forms processor."
Matt: But isn't a "bankruptcy forms processor" a non-attorney who prepares documents for the general public and competes with attorneys?
Dennis: Not The Lawyer Assistant. They dedicated their services solely to attorneys. In fact, many attorneys who did not have a bankruptcy practice formed one when they learned about the benefits The Lawyer Assistant offered to their law firm.
Matt: Is the company still in business?

A virtual assistant never leaves your side. They are as close as your office or laptop computer, regardless of where you are located in the world!

spurt" and he needed to change some of his internal
office procedures to accommodate the growth.

However, Matt would soon learn that things were
much worse than he thought. Sometimes, what looks
good on the outside is not always good on the inside.

Matt was happy with his bankruptcy law practice

Matt was happy with his bankruptcy law practice
and it had grown into a financially successful law firm.
Because he received many of his clients from referrals
by former clients (and other attorneys) his marketing
costs were low. Matt knew this was a result of providing good service and building a client base of loyal,
dedicated clients. However, Matt also noticed that his
law practice was experiencing a noticeable "growth

Our story begins with Matt Anderson. Matt Anderson has been a bankruptcy attorney for 22 years. His
dad started the law firm back in the 1960s and passed
it on to his son. Matt loved working on the debtor side
of bankruptcy law. He had a compassion for the
average blue-collar worker — and it showed; his
clients loved him and referred their family and friends
to his law firm all the time. Additionally, since Matt's
client base consisted mainly of no-asset cases, they
moved quickly through the court system. He rarely had
to go to court (except for a 5-10 minute 341 Meeting)
and this helped to create a fast turnaround rate for his
Chapter 7 cases and increased profits for his law firm.
