search of real property

search of real property records including a civil and criminal records search for all the clients to ensure all their assets, debts, lawsuits and other issues are included in the bankruptcy petition. Additionally, the virtual assistant prints out a copy from the Kelly Blue Book website to verify the value of the motor vehicles.
Utilizing this level of detail in documentation not only improved the quality of our petitions, but also made them easy for the court personnel to process. In fact, court officials are always commenting on how well-detailed my petitions are and several have asked me to train other attorneys. I understand that many courts are flooded with petitions that contain numerous errors and omissions. So if a virtual assistant has been professionally trained in drafting bankruptcy petitions, these problems are often eliminated.
Matt: What about the issue of "sharing fees" with a non-attorney assistant?
Dennis: You pay people to work for you at your law firm don't you? Do you consider paying your employees the same thing as sharing fees?
