LearningasIgo Posted August 21, 2011 Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Chapter 13 Attorney Fees The attorney fees associated with filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy vary depending upon the attorney's hourly rate. Attorneys typically charge an upfront fee called a retainer to begin working on a case. That retainer can vary from $500 to $1,000 or even higher. Most bankruptcy attorneys will quote a figure somewhere around $2,000 to $3,000 as an average total cost for filing a Chapter 13 bankruptcy case. That total fee, minus the retainer fee, will be paid out to the attorney by the bankruptcy court as part of your regular monthly Chapter 13 payment plan.------------------------------------------------------------------Just type in the question in a search engine......
