The filing fee is set by the court. The attorney fee is pretty standard.

SLOW DOWN!!!!! You might not need to declare bankruptcy yet! There is a other way. You can have a someone negotiate on your behalf to pay the crediters a percentage of the outstanding debt and he/she will take a cut from the negotiation. (usually it is between 15 – 25% of the outstanding debt) much better for your credit rating then a bankruptcy!

If you want the answer to that go ask your parents, if you are a parent look it up.
