How Vernon filers pay for bankruptcy
Most people combine two or three of these:
- Spread out the attorney fee. Our Chapter 7 fee is paid before filing, and we work out a payment schedule with you in writing.
- Split the court fee. The $338 filing fee can be paid in as many as four parts, all within 120 days of filing.
- Ask for a waiver. If your household income is low enough, the court may drop the Chapter 7 filing fee entirely.
- Redirect old payments. Money that used to go to credit card minimums often covers the case. Talk to us before you change any payment.
