Bankruptcy attorneys need to effectively and efficiently communicate with clients to maximize profits and avoid malpractice claims and ethics complaints. Chapter 2 begins with a focus on the ethical requirements surrounding communications with prospective clients. Bankruptcy attorneys must be aware of the ethical rules regarding advertising and compensation imposed by their state bar and the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

Chapter 3 treats bankruptcy attorneys to a discussion on the importance of client communications to increase profitability and facilitate future client referrals. Chapter 3 presents 15 steps to great client care to enhance profitability through referrals.

Chapter 4 focuses on fact gathering during the initial client consultation. A standardized pre-printed intake form is an essential part of fact gathering. The intake form allows the attorney to better understand the prospect’s current financial situation and is a starting point for inquiries into the prospective client’s financial problems, goals, and possible solutions. A sample intake form.

Chapter 5 offers a detailed timeline of a typical Chapter 7 case. Bankruptcy attorneys must be prepared to explain the bankruptcy process to prospective clients. The difference between landing a prospective client and losing a prospective client may be the bankruptcy attorney’s ability to communicate the timeline for Chapter 7 cases.

Chapter 6 discusses “non-engagement” letter agreements. Not every prospect will engage the law firm. To avoid malpractice claims, bankruptcy attorneys should utilize non-engagement letters that clearly communicate their decision NOT to accept an engagement. Three separate sample non-engagement letters are provided.

Chapter 7 highlights the need to tender bankruptcy disclosures to the prospective client by the bankruptcy attorney prior to a prospective client engaging the attorney. An attorney’s ethical responsibility is to provide a prospective client with sufficient information so that the prospective client can make an informed decision whether to engage the bankruptcy attorney, for what services, and at what cost.

Chapter 8 addresses written engagement letters, which are a must in every bankruptcy case. A written statement articulating the terms of the engagement reduces the possibility of misunderstanding and offers documentary protection if a disgruntled client claims the lawyer acted unethically. No oral representations.

Chapters 9 and 10 focus on the two-step fact-gathering process necessary to complete the bankruptcy petition, schedules, and statements. Fact gathering typically requires multiple communications with the client. As discussed in Chapter 9, each bankruptcy attorney should prepare a checklist of requested documents for clients to produce. The checklist should stress the importance of tendering all the documents on the list that are in the client’s possession and control. A sample client questionnaire is provided.

Chapters 11, 12, and 13 present sample communication letters relating to the client’s duties and responsibilities AFTER the bankruptcy case was filed. Chapter 11 communications involve tendering the petition, schedules, and statements to the client and urging client review. Chapter 12 focuses on the § 341 meeting of creditors. Chapter 13 addresses post-petition responsibilities, reaffirmation agreements, redemption rights, the automatic stay, adequate assurance deposits to utility companies, and the instructional course concerning personal financial management.

Finally, Chapter 14 offers sample evaluation forms to be sent to each client to help improve the bankruptcy attorney’s practice and increase profitability. Separate evaluation forms relate to the initial consultation, the § 341 meeting of creditors, and the of the case.
