What fees are charged in a chapter 13 case?
March 28, 2008
There is a $185 filing fee charged when the case is filed, which may be paid in installments if necessary. In addition, the chapter 13 trustee assesses a fee of 10 percent on all payments made under the plan. Thus, if a debtor pays a total of $5,000 under a chapter 13 plan, the total amount of fees charged in the case will be $685 (a $500 trustee’s fee, plus the $185 filing fee). These fees are in addition to the fee charged by the debtor’s attorney.
