Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Illinois
I have a friend that filed chapter 13
bk but lost her house anyway. She is losing almost half her paycheck for repayment of debt. The lawyer she used says she can convert to chapter7 but, she would have to put $1200 down (no payment plan). She is not making enough to pay that. Is this the only way or is this just her lawyers' policy?

She can fire attorney and do on her own. Otherwise, going rate for conversion is around $1000.
