I want to open a bankruptcy paralegal service from home?
Question by MaLynda P: I want to open a bankruptcy paralegal service from home?
I am a certified bankruptcy paralegal who has 10 years + experience. I want to open my own firm from home but know there are other forms I have to file with the petitions and are not sure where to find the information on line or in books. I am also not sure where I am suppose to sign as a document preparation when I file and would appreciate anyone’s help with links to paralegal help and books.

There are provisions for petition preparers (typists) being allowed to charge fees. I believe that the Court rules or Federal rules prohibit you from referring to your assistance as a paralegal service, since if you are doing anything other than typing the forms from instructions supplied by the debtors, you’ll be practicing law.
