Petition Preparation Software Information 

The court does not endorse or warranty the products or services of any vendor. If you have a problem with your petition software, you should contact the software provider directly.

Although generic word processing software [e.g., WordPerfect, Microsoft Word, etc.] can be used to create documents, there are many software packages on the market which create bankruptcy forms and greatly simplify the creation of petitions and other pleadings. They may also simplify the conversion of documents to PDF format. These software packages are particularly helpful to attorneys who intend to file new cases. You will find below a list of some of the companies that have developed specialty software for bankruptcy forms preparation. When reviewing software packages for purchase, we would recommend that you look at the following features:
  1. Does the application allow for the preparation of a large range of bankruptcy forms?
  2. Is the application marketed specifically for use with CM/ECF?
  3. Does the application allow you to enter case information once and then use that information to fill out all of the forms?
  4. Does the application indicate that it includes the ability to upload the data to the court's server in a very simple process?
