Since most bankruptcy attorneys charge a flat fee, it is important to find out what specific services the fee covers. Your attorney would be the person to file the motion, on your behalf, during your bankruptcy if he or she is requested by you to do so. However, typically motions are not covered under standard flat fee retainers. Therefore, you would be charged an additional fee for this service.
It is important for debtors who file a bankruptcy case under Chapter 13 to understand their rights
and responsibilities. It is also important that the debtors know what their attorney's responsibilities
are, and understand the importance of communicating with their attorney to make the case
successful.
