How are attorney's fees paid?

In a Chapter 7, generally your attorney's fees must be paid up front before the filing. This makes sense because in a Chapter 7 proceeding a promise made before filing the case to pay attorney's fees after filing makes the promise dischargeable, too. In a Chapter 13, your attorney's fees can be paid either before the filing or as part of the repayment plan. For Chapter 13 cases, the installment payment plan is the preferred choice of most clients since it requires less up-front cash.
