Bankruptcy - Attorney Fees

CHAPTER 7 CASES (Personal Only - No Business Bankruptcies)
 
(The Firm does not currently handle other types of bankruptcy cases, but we can refer you to an attorney who does handle them)

Hourly rate - $400 (Basic), $480 (Complex)

Initial review of income documents (in cases involving multiple source of income; inconsistent income; former business income; or income that is close to the maximum median income ceiling) - $400-$1600

Single person (with income below median average) - $4000

Married couple (with income below median average) - $4800

Single person (with income ABOVE median average) - $5600

Married couple (with income ABOVE median average) - $6000

Cases involving personal business income - Add $1200 minimum
Cases involving more than 20 creditors - Add $800 (per extra 10)

Complex Cases - $8000 minimum

File Proof of Claim - $1600 - $3200


The above fees cover the standard services necessary in an uncontested bankruptcy case. Contested matters (responses to motions to lift stay, objections to objections & discharge, depositions, and any contested hearing, etc), and requests for additional information from the US Trustee are billed at a rate of $400.00 - $480.00 an hour. This usually only happens in a very small percentage of cases (less than 1%), and we can usually tell in advance if the case is going to be contested for some reason.



Filing Fees - $338 (current as of 1/1/26)
