Who pays the bankruptcy trustee's lawyer?

In a bankruptcy case, the bankruptcy trustee's lawyer is typically paid from the assets of the bankruptcy estate. This means that the funds are drawn from the money and property available in the estate, which may include proceeds from liquidated assets. If the estate does not have sufficient funds, the trustee's attorney may not receive payment for their services. In some cases, the debtor may also be required to pay certain fees, depending on the type of bankruptcy filed.
