    How much were/are your attorney fees for filing CH 7?

    I am wondering what everyone else here is paying their attorneys to file CH 7. I spoke with my attorney today and he told me that his fee would be $2,500.

    Just wondering... how much did you pay your attorney?

      It also varies on the amount of debt and how complicated it may be. There are many factors that can vary to determine a retainer amount.

              Usually retainers for bankruptcy range from $1000.00 to $3000.00. Like I said before, it depends upon the case. No two cases are alike.

                    900 + 299 filing. No asset case, married. Mid Missouri.

                    We also got quoted at $2,000 and $1,500 from two other lawyers. Ours lawyer priced his on a sliding scale based on number and types of creditors, i.e re-affirmations were another $300, 5-10 creditors was less than 10-20 creditors, secured debt may have added to it. It was almost a la carte. ::shrug::
