Typically, a client (or a married couple) is charged approximately $1,250.00 total for a complete Chapter 7 bankruptcy. This fee may be increased if the client’s case requires additional work. A Chapter 7 bankruptcy involves two main costs, the court filing fee and attorney fee. In addition, clients will have to complete an instructional course before the case is filed and another instructional course before the case is completed. Below is an estimate of these costs. Please note that attorney fees vary on a case by case basis and nothing on this web page constitutes an actual fee quote or fee contract. All costs and attorney fees are typically paid before a bankruptcy case is filed on your behalf.
