Designing beautiful form filing software is incredibly difficult. It requires carefully tracking updates, developing the most efficient processes for users, and testing workflows in real world scenarios. In a modern law firm, it should also run seamlessly on the cloud. After years of working as a bankruptcy paralegal, Janine Sickmeyer was more than prepared to crack the code of pain free software-assisted bankruptcy filing, so she stepped into an attorney-dominated boys club and did it. The result was NextChapter, an online filing program used by thousands of attorneys that automates cumbersome forms so bankruptcy practitioners can serve more clients and do their part to narrow the access to justice gap.
