A very common question I get from someone during my first conversation is about fees.

There is a different fee structure for a chapter 7 versus a chapter 13. My fees depend upon the amount of work involved and the type of assets that I am protecting. In addition, the timing of the bankruptcy can make a difference between saving someone a lot of money and costing someone a lot of money. In order to give you an accurate answer about fees I will need to ask you at least 20 questions before I can give you an estimate.
