The cost of filing a Bankruptcy case is an important consideration. We understand your situation and understand if you had extra money, you probably would not be calling us for help. Therefore, with that understanding, we will work with any budget. It is our experience that the best way to set attorney’s fees is after a full and thorough evaluation of all the client’s debts and assets.

There are certain fees associated with every bankruptcy case.

• Filing fees for a Chapter 7 charged by the court are $299.00
• Filing fees for a Chapter 13 charged by the court are $274.00.
• There is also a fee for the Credit Counseling Course and Financial Management Course. The fees for these courses depend on the provider and can range from $35.00 to $50.00 per course.
• Attorney fees.

In addition, the attorney fees in a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy are handled either by the use of a flat fee or by an hourly rate. The flat fee for a consumer Chapter 13 Bankruptcy case is set by the local bankruptcy rules and most attorneys charge the same amount. A distinct advantage of a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy is that a significant portion of the attorney fees can be included in the repayment plan.
