View Full Version : BK fees
Ronnie
I know this question varies with the location you're in and the complexity of your BK but can anyone give me a ballpark figure from the least to most expensive an attorney can charge to file a BK?
Thanks

$200 to $2,000 for a simple Ch. 7 in San Francisco.

I live in San Jose which is about 40 min from there and the attorney I met charges $600-$700 for my case which involves $17K of debt. Do you think that's reasonable? And also would you happen to refer me to any trustworthy attorneys you know in the Bay Area who charges reasonably?
Thanks and regards,
Ronnie

I haven't lived in the Bay Area since 98, and I can't say that I can recommend anyone.
$600 or so isn't bad.

I've talked to several attorneys and I have about 12K cc debt and 17K secured debt. I live in southern california. The fees are about the same from 600-800 not including the filing fee of 185$. My attorney is charging 675 for a chpt. 7 and 1700 for a chpt. 13. The chpt. 13 rate is pretty standard throughout the county here.
You've gotta have an attorney though, don't file with one of those online software programs.
