          Costs have increased since the new law went into effect on 10/05 due to increased work and paperwork involved. We paid $1800 in 2002 ($1200 at retention and $600 in Plan). And that was for one of the top attorneys in our area that handled BK and worth every penney which we thought was so high at that time.

              In Massachusetts lawyers are capped by law at $3500 for a Ch13 filing. Most of which is paid thru the plan

                        $3000 ($500 up front, rest in the plan) in Ohio - I think the price is capped here as well.
