Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Fees
How Much Does a Northwest Indiana Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Cost?
We charge one flat fee that covers all your costs: $1,340. You pay nothing else. We pay all court costs. This fee includes the preparation and filing of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy and an attorney to appear with you at the required Chapter 7 bankruptcy hearing.
Is there a payment plan?
In a chapter 7 bankruptcy the case must be paid in full before it is filed. Most law firms that offer payment plans on a chapter 7 case usually do not file the case until paid so our firm sees such plans as false advertising.
Does this price include the court fee, the credit counseling fee and the education fee?
The $1,340.00 includes everything. When you file bankruptcy, you must pay a $335 filing fee and a credit counseling fee and a debtor education fee. Our fee quoted above is flat and includes all the above.
Does it cost more if married couples want to file bankruptcy jointly for both the husband and the wife?
If you are filing as married couple our fee is the same for joint petitions.
