For a South Pasadena, California household earning the city's median income of $127,175, $1,538 is about 15% of one month's income before taxes. It is a little less than 0.7 months of South Pasadena, California's median rent. The court charges every filer the same fee, no matter which lawyer you hire.
Why the price matters in South Pasadena, California
A typical household here earns about $10,600 a month, so a Chapter 7 starting at $1,538 with the court fee is about 15% of one month's pay. With higher incomes, the risk of a cheap filing is less about price and more about missing a hard issue. Many residents own one of the city's 1,211 businesses with one to four workers, and business leases, loans and equipment need careful handling. A form preparer cannot advise you on any of that. A flat fee with a licensed attorney lets you keep the price low without skipping those questions.
What the cheapest options can cost you
Some people try to save money by filing alone. The forms run dozens of pages, and the trustee checks every answer against your pay stubs and bank records. One wrong choice of exemptions can put property at risk, and a case thrown out for missing papers can limit your protection if you file again within a year.
