End-to-end contract lifecycle management with logic-based document assembly and AI-driven risk mitigation.
The cloud-based legal technology platform revolutionizing bankruptcy and practice management through vLex intelligence.
NextChapter, a subsidiary of vLex (following the Fastcase merger), is a sophisticated, cloud-native legal platform specifically engineered for bankruptcy practitioners and general legal firms. Its architecture is built around a linear, browser-based workflow that simplifies the complexity of Chapter 7, 11, and 13 filings. By 2026, the platform has matured into an AI-first ecosystem, leveraging the vLex 'Vincent' intelligence engine to provide predictive analytics and automated legal research directly within the case management interface. The technical stack utilizes high-security SOC 2 Type II protocols to handle sensitive debtor data, integrating directly with PACER and credit reporting agencies (TransUnion, Experian, Equifax) via proprietary APIs. The platform's market position is uniquely defined by its 'NextChapter Services'—a hybrid model of software and virtual paralegal support—making it the leading choice for firms seeking to scale without increasing overhead. Its 2026 roadmap focuses on 'NextChapter Docs' for multi-practice document assembly and 'NextMessage' for automated, secure client communications, positioning it as the central operating system for modern boutique and mid-sized law firms.
