Nebraska bankruptcy attorney Patrick Patino and had a great conversation about the hot topic of bifurcated chapter 7 fees in Nebraska.
In a traditional chapter 7 case all fees must be paid before a case is filed. Why? Because unpaid attorney fees are wiped out once a case is filed so attorneys demand that all fees be paid BEFORE a case is filed.

Bankruptcy filings are beneficial for individuals who are no longer capable of making payments to their creditors. There are several advantages to filing for bankruptcy. One of the main reasons why debtors file bankruptcy is for an automatic stay, which prohibits collection activities from debt collectors. This means that the debtor shall be protected from creditor harassment and wage garnishment. Another objective of filing a bankruptcy petition is to obtain a bankruptcy discharge.

Businesses that are struggling with debt often consider a bankruptcy petition. Most choose this legal process to be free from some (or possibly all) of their creditor debts.
After facing a huge unforeseen lawsuit filed against the company, some are forced to declare bankruptcy. As such, business owners associate bankruptcy cases with the feeling of failure, hardship, and loss. It is regarded as a last resort when a business hits rock bottom due to financial problems. This should not be the case.
