FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Van Horn Law Group utilizes a flat-fee, all-in billing approach. This means we offer a comprehensive and transparent pricing structure that allows clients to accurately budget for our services. Our fees cover all necessary charges to file the case and include the full scope of legal services required—no surprise costs along the way. For Chapter 7 cases, the advertised price of $388 is to get your case filed quickly and legally. After that, we create a 0% interest payment plan for the remaining attorney fees, which typically range from $1,500 to $2,000, depending on the complexity of the case. This keeps high-quality legal help within reach without upfront pressure. For Chapter 13 bankruptcies, attorney fees are pre-set by the Clerk of Courts, and we continue to offer interest-free payment options to keep the process affordable and stress-free. This client-first billing model ensures total transparency, eliminates financial surprises, and helps our clients move forward with confidence.
