What are my Chapter 13 Costs?

The Trustee’s costs for administering your case are paid from the funds you pay into your plan.  The United States Code sets the maximum charge at 10 percent of the amount disbursed in the case.  The percentage fee will vary during the life of your case, but the percentage is generally less than 10 percent & would not be more than 10 percent at any time.  If your case is dismissed or converted to another Chapter prior to confirmation, the Trustee will return to you all funds on hand, less Court approved attorney’s fees and Court approved Trustee’s Administrative Fees.
