A lawyer should not charge you more because of the number of accounts. Mine doesn't. As far as the cars go, it deends on what state you are in, what your exemptions are. In Florida is it $1000 in equity in a vehicle, per person. My lawyer told me that we could use the value of our wildcard exemptions that we are allowed if the value of the vehicle was over the allowed amount.
I would advise that you get a consultation with a local attorney, and ask him. He will be able to give you answers specifically for your situation.

If it was me, and I was set on bankruptcy, had already retained a lawyer, and there was not turning back, then I would let the house go. To me, there is not point in throwing money at the mortgage when you are going to lose it anyway. However, I would be concernced about the tenants. I would have a hard time with letting the house forclose, and leaving them in a bind.[/left]
