Well- it is OK to file on your own.
You pay for the on-line forms and directions.
You pay the $200 -$300 filing fees.
You spend 10 -15 hours of your time learin what to do, how to do it and doing all the work.

If you are lucky and VERY SMART you do not foul up too badly for a BK lawyer to repair when the BK Court throws out your petition.

If you are VERY lucky you will find a BK lawyer who will not charge you too muc to undo the damage you have done and refile .
If you are unlucky, you will have filed and before adjudication it will be negated because of fraud (you call it errors). And you will not be allowed to refile.
