The unhelpful answer is \u201cit depends.\u201d It depends upon the complexity of your case; chapter you file under; value, quantity, and type of assets; and potential discharge, among other factors.

Don\u2019t Go With The Cheapest Bankruptcy Attorney<\/strong><\/p>\n

One rule in life is that you get what you pay for. Not surprisingly, this life tenet can hold true in selecting a bankruptcy attorney. The cheapest bankruptcy attorney charges that rock-bottom price for a reason. Moreover, you might pay for that rock-bottom price tenfold in a defective filing, poor bankruptcy attorney communication, or denial of discharge.<\/p>\n

Remember The Fees<\/strong><\/p>\n

Bankruptcy Attorney fees rarely include other bankruptcy expenses. Bankruptcy expenses include the court filing fee ($335<\/b> for chapter 7 cases) and the required education courses (cost varies, but be prepared to spend $20-$40<\/b>). So, when a bankruptcy attorney quotes a price be sure to ask if that quote includes everything that you will have to pay to complete your chapter 7 bankruptcy. If it doesn’t, tack on another $400 to the quote to understand your total cost.<\/p>\n
