Why would the attorney try to widdle your expenses down to make you qualifiy
for Chapter 13? It seems my attorney was really pushing that on us. I mean
if we have over 75,000 in debt and hardly any money left over after expenses
why is it so hard to do Chapter 7? If we have cable and internet would be
not be allowed to show these as expenses for Chapter 7. I know Chapter 13
is no frills bare bones. Are they really that picky for a hundred buck more
to make you file Chapter 13 instead? She said they would not allow any of
my business expenses because the business is not breaking even per month. I
find this all very diffcult and confusing. Is it correct that if you can pay at least 50% of your creditors in 3 years
you should file chapter 13. Im in CA. I've tried talking to our attorney.
Last week we told her we decided not to file and when I called her back this
week to say yes we changed our mind, she said it was too late and she closed
our case. Retaining fee won't be reinbursed. So basically we have no more
legal advice unitl we go hunt another lawyer. Any good suggestions for
lawyer in CA? Preferably East San Fernando Valley?
