[CLBS] Payment

[Ted Rupp]

In kind payments are also a very bad idea.  I believe it was in the early
90's when Judge Pappas had an attorney disgorge fees where he took a piano
as payment.  As I recall the gist was that the attorney had the power to set
the price without regard to the true value of the item taken.  Can't recall
the case but have never taken any in kind payments since that time.

Listmates,

I recently herd of attorneys who counsel their chs. 7&13 clients to pay
their attorneys'  fees on the client's credit cards, which are then included
in the BK. I've also heard of attorneys taking in kind payments for BK
services. 

I have serious concerns regarding each of these payment schemes. Thoughts? 

Best regards,
