You may have heard or seen advertisements claiming that this firm or that firm offers low-cost bankruptcy filing. But do you know what that advertised “low price” will actually cost you?
Some Minnesota law firms trick consumers into hiring them for bankruptcy cases by promising a low cost, without warning the potential client that their advertised price doesn’t include the time your attorney spent on your case (billable hours) or other costs, like filing fees.Worse, some of these “low cost” firms don’t specialize in Minnesota bankruptcy; their inexperience can lead to costly mistakes during your case that can prevent all or some of your debt from being discharged.
If you’re considering filing for bankruptcy in Minnesota, make sure you know the true price you will pay; with affordable flat-rate fees and no hidden costs, Kain & Scott makes filing for bankruptcy in Minnesota simple and cost-effective. And, at Kain & Scott, we specialize in Minnesota bankruptcy so you never have to worry about your bankruptcy being denied because of errors.
To find out more about the true cost of bankruptcy and how filing for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy with Minnesota’s oldest bankruptcy law firm, Kain & Scott, can save you money, read on!
An example of the true cost of bankruptcy
To illustrate how you may be tricked into paying much more for your bankruptcy than you think, consider the following example. Smith & Jones Law Firm advertises that you can eliminate your debt for $399. After hiring the law firm to complete your bankruptcy, you are surprised by several bills in the mail from your attorneys, totaling several thousand dollars. When you call to ask what the bill is for, you learn that the “price” of bankruptcy—in this fictitious example, $399—doesn’t cover filing fees, court costs, administrative expenses, or the charges for the time your attorney spent on your case.
Suddenly, your “cheap” bankruptcy has become another huge bill you can’t afford.
You decide to continue with Smith & Jones and, after your bankruptcy case is discharged, you discover that only a portion of your eligible debt has been forgiven: Smith & Jones, it turns out, doesn’t specialize in bankruptcy and due to their inexperience, has stuck you with thousands of dollars of your original debt, plus the hidden costs and fees they billed you for.
What a mess!
