I will file bankruptcy. Don't know if I will qualify for Chapter 13 bankruptcy or Chapter 7 bankruptcy. How much do I have to pay to an attorney for Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy? Please suggest


You have to pass the means test for that. The means test lets you know if you'll qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy or Chapter 13 bankruptcy.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing fee is $335.
Chapter 3 bankruptcy filing fee is $310.
Bankruptcy trustee may charge between $15 and $20 at the time of filing bankruptcy.

Chapter 7 bankruptcy attorney fee is $1250.
Chapter 13 bankruptcy attorney fee is $3000.

Why do you want to file bankruptcy? What is your total debt amount? Bankruptcy should be the last option. It can damage your credit score badly. If you are unable to pay off total debt, then you can consider debt settlement.
