How much does it cost to file Chapter 7 and when must the fee be paid?
The court costs and attorney fee must be paid before a Chapter 7 case can be filed. The attorney fee for each case varies depending on the complexity of your financial situation. Most debtors pay their fees and expenses by simply stopping payment on dischargeable debt like credit card debt. Instead of making these monthly payments, debtors save their money for the payment of their Chapter 7 case.
