Default Advantages/Disadvantages To Using Only Paralegal?

Being on a very tight budget I'm wondering what the pros and cons of hiring a paralegal would be to do a Chapter 7. I'm pretty sure I qualify for a 7, and am reasonably good at communicating and being organized as far as court appearance goes.

also wonder what might a typical paralegal charge?
Thanks

Bankruptcy issues can really get complicated, especially after the introduction of the new law in 2005, hence I'd have felt safe in the hands of a good bankruptcy lawyer. Moreover, a paralegal can't give you legal advices. Using a paralegal may save you some $$ but it may also complicate your case later if the file isn't prepared properly. Think about it.
