I am currently in chapter 13th bankruptcy, and I need to convert over to chp. 7 and I talked to some lawyers and they are charging too much. Is there a how to do it yourself answer out there.

An attorney is not a formal requirement for filing bankruptcy, but it is highly recommended as it's a pretty complex procedure.

Tell us what state you're in and we'll see if we can find instructions for you to review.

I live in the state of Texas (Dallas).

The first thing I found was a warning from the US Bankruptcy Court in Texas against it:
