How much does a bankruptcy lawyer charge?
A bankruptcy lawyer’s fees can vary depending on the type of bankruptcy filed, and the complexity of the case. Furthermore, whereas a simple Chapter 7 bankruptcy might have cost you in the range of $600 - $1,500 in lawyer’s fees in the past, bankruptcy reform laws, which have made a simple bankruptcy filing much more complex, are expected to cause bankruptcy lawyers’ fees to increase significantly.
