Virtual Bankruptcy Paralegals
(Only provided to licensed attorneys; Propel does not work with the public/pro se filers.)
Bankruptcy is what we do.
Most virtual paralegal companies cover a little of everything. Propel went the other way. Around 95% of our work is bankruptcy, with a focus on debtor-side consumer cases. Our paralegals work Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 every day, and they bring decades of combined bankruptcy experience to your firm.
That focus is the difference. You are not training a generalist. You are adding a specialist who knows the consumer bankruptcy workflow from intake to discharge.
We do take select work in other practice areas on a case-by-case basis. But debtor-side consumer bankruptcy is the center of everything we do.
Who we work with
Propel supports consumer bankruptcy practices across the country. Solo attorneys managing rising caseloads. Growing firms that need capacity without a full-time hire. Established practices that want senior help during filing surges.
If consumer bankruptcy is part of your practice, we can carry the paralegal workload so you can focus on your clients and your court time.
Propel only works with licensed attorneys in the United States. Our services are not provided pro se parties.
