Should I file for bankruptcy if I cannot pay attorney fees? How?

The decision to file bankruptcy is not one that is easy to make. The paperwork alone is over 40 pages long and requires complicated mathematical calculations. How good are you at math? Most attorneys, CPA's and other professionals that file bankruptcy (and many do have to file bankruptcy as well) chose to hire a bankruptcy attorney to represent them because they see bankruptcy as being too hard to do on their own, but you may be the exception. Since all your assets will be at risk if you make a mistake, hope you don't have to learn the hard way.

Chapter 13

Answered by attorney Michael D. Siegel
Bankruptcy lawyer at Siegel & Siegel, P.C.
Who said you make too much for Chapter 7?  In my opinion whoever said that has no idea how to calculate a means test.  If you have this much debt and problems, you likely qualify for Chapter 7.

If my mom filed bankruptcy and I was trying to sell the house I inherited, does that mean I have to pay her debt even?

Well, talk about a question that is as clear as mud. Did you inherit the house from your mother or did you inherit it from someone else? Do you inherit the house through probate or because your name was on the title as a joint or co-owner? How long ago did your mother file bankruptcy? Was it chapter 7 or chapter 13? Was the bankruptcy completed by a discharge order? Or was the bankruptcy still open and pending? All this questions are crucial to get an accurate answer to your question. I am not a Magic 8 ball that gives you answers randomly that say nothing.
