We do not advertise our bankruptcy fees on our website, because we do not want them to be used in a bidding war with other attorneys. That is not fair to our firm or the other attorneys. Our fees are reasonable and are disclosed during our initial consultation with individuals who are serious about retaining our firm. To find out about the specific fee we would charge to handle your case, contact us today for a free consultation.

Our fees for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy cases are on a flat fee basis, meaning you pay us one fee, up front, prior to filing your case.  Payment for legal services related to Chapter 7 Bankruptcy cases must be received in full before we can file your case.

Beware of law firms that advertise payment plans for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy cases , as in our view this is misleading, because there is not one firm that will file a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy case without being paid in full. The reason for this is that if a law firm files a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy case without being paid in full, they become an unsecured creditor on the portion of their fee that remains unpaid at the time of filing.

Also, beware of law firms that offer a small down payment to start  your bankruptcy or offer payment plans to begin working on your bankruptcy petition. These law firms typically open a file on a client in their office and that is it. The client's case has not yet actually been filed with the bankruptcy court. So while the client's file is open in the law firm's office and the client is making  payments, the client still does not have a bankruptcy court case number nor does the client have any bankruptcy protections.

Our fees in Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy cases do not include the Bankruptcy Court's filing fees.

Additionally, our fees do not cover the cost of the mandatory credit counseling course that is required by the Bankruptcy Court. You will be required to take a credit counseling course which you can take over the internet or telephone. The fee for the credit counseling course is approximately $50.00.
