The office of A Bankruptcy Lawyer Andy Miofsky is open 9-5 Monday through Friday.  Saturday hours are available at the Mt. Vernon office.  I will gladly offer extended hours to meet your needs.  Please call 618/931-1313 to schedule an appointment to review your bankruptcy options.   Your call will be answered 24 hours a day by either a bankruptcy attorney, a scheduler or an automated messaging system.


Chapter 7 Fee (Non-Business):  $901 attorney fee plus $306 filing fee and $50 credit counseling fee = $1250.  Yes, this fee must be paid before the case can be filed.  If you pay in full at the first Bankruptcy Intake meeting and you have all your documents, I can usually get your case filed within a week. 

If you need time payments, you may pay an initial $600 payment at the Bankruptcy Intake interview  with the remaining balance paid over time. 

Upon payment of the first $600 I will give you, absolutely free, the exclusive Andy Miofsky's Bankruptcy Organizer system and reusable Miofsky Law Office tote. This system, designed by me, will help you collect and organize the documents you need to file bankruptcy while you are making payments on the balance of your fees and costs. 

Business cases require a minimum additional $500 fee.


Chapter 13 fees require additional fees due to the length of time and additional work involved in such cases.  These fees are often payable over a longer period of time through the monthly payments you make to the court.  A chapter 13 case may usually be started for an initial $600 payment to my office at the beginning of the Bankruptcy Intake interview.  Additional fees may be required in business, delinquent mortgage and repeat filing cases.  Please call 618/931-1313 for details.

OTHER FEES MAY APPLY based on the amount of work and time involved in your case.  All fees will be discussed with you in advance.

After filing bankruptcy a debtor is required to attend a second counseling session before the Court can discharge your debts.  This course can be done in person, over the phone or on the internet.  There is an additional charge for this session that varies by the method and by the provider.  After you file your case I will give you information to help you sign up for this course.
