Cost of Bankruptcy
The cost of bankruptcy refers to the court filing fee paid to the court, which is separate from the attorney fee paid to your lawyer to prepare and file your case and represent you throughout the legal process. Currently, as of January 2023, the court filing fee for bankruptcy in San Diego is either a $338 filing fee if you are filing under Chapter 7 or a $313 filing fee if you are filing under Chapter 13. This is the fee paid to the court at the time of filing. It is separate from the lawyer fee you pay to your attorney.
Lawyer Fee For Filing Bankruptcy in San Diego
Each client’s circumstances are unique and the attorney fee for bankruptcy in San Diego will necessarily depend on the nature and complexity of the issues involved in your particular situation. For example, if you own a business or multiple rental properties, your legal matter will clearly be more complex than a person who is a W-2 employee and does not own any real estate. From years of experience we have learned that we cannot possibly quote you a lawyer fee without first sitting down with you and reviewing your situation in detail.
