How much does it cost?

Presently the court filing fee is $299 for Chapter 7 and $274 for Chapter 13. The attorney's fee is regulated by the court. Most California bankruptcy attorneys charge within a few hundred dollars of each other --not much of a difference when the total debt discharged runs into the tens of thousands, and even less important when one considers that most low-cost providers make profit by doing cases in volume and spending less time explaining issues to the client.
