CONSIDER CHAPTER 13
http://www.considerchapter13.org
Lots of resources, mostly for professionals, and especially Chapter 13 Trustees.  It is always good to know what the “other side” thinks.  You need to be a member to get to all the content, but much is available publicly.

CHAPTER 13 TOOLKIT
http://www.ch13la.com/bapcpa/toolkit
Our very own local Los Angeles Trustee gives a very fine list of documents to help practice Chapter 13 bankruptcy.  A must have for all Chapter 13 practitioners regardless of the trustee assigned to the case, although some documents are outdated.

QUICKEN
http://quicken.intuit.com
For those who still use packaged software. This is now not only the best, but the only major software package since MS Money decided to terminate.   Note:  They’ve joined forces with Mint.com (well, they bought Mint).  And yes, budgeting is even more necessary after you’ve filed bankruptcy.

FRESH START LOANS

This is for when your vehicles are upside down (worth less than owed) and it is worthwhile to find alternative financing to the current loan, even if you’ve already filed bankruptcy.
