More details to this question:
I'm am at the half way point of my chapter 13 my attorney charged me $3500 and was paid first. I have moved and my expenses have increase 30% from when I first filed. I ask my attorney can I amend for another 4 to 6 months to lower my payments. When he sent me the information it included another attorney fee of $1500 in which my payments would not change. Can he changed me more fee's to make these changes and fi so why would he in the middle of the case? and what can I do?

LAwyers don't work for free and the $1500 to get your payments right is probably worth it- but if you are just going to be back at the court again in 4-6 months, if allowed, do 1 order now that adjusts to future reality so you only pay once or otherwise wait until the next change comes.
good luck!
