How Do I File Chapter 13 Bankruptcy?
No Attorney Fee to File | Only $360 in Court Costs

Short Version

This is what is required to file Chapter 13:

You provide us detailed information about your debts, income and assets along with certain documents like tax returns and wage statements.
We use this information to ensure that you are able to fund a successful Chapter 13 and visit with you about how you want to reorganize your financial affairs.
We prepare a number of court required forms for you to review and sign.
While we prefer to meet with you in our offices, all of this can be done by phone and mail.
You attend a brief online credit counseling course required by the Bankruptcy Court costing $50.
You pay $310 in fees required by the Bankruptcy Court.
We file your Chapter 13.
Typically we like to take a couple of weeks to do all of this and provide you the best result possible but if you have an emergency, we can file your Chapter 13 in a couple of days -- provided you do your part timely.
Filing Chapter 13 immediately stops all your creditors in their tracks including foreclosures, repossessions, garnishments and calls from collection agencies against you -- and any co-signers like friends and relatives.
You pay nothing to us for legal fees in advance of filing.
Your legal fees are paid from money that would otherwise go to unsecured creditors like credit card companies and other unsecured creditors.
