How can I get money from a court registry account after bankruptcy ended

I just got out of a Chapter 13 bankruptcy and there is a little over $300 in the Court Registry Account because one of the checks sent to one of the companies didn't cash it. Is there a way I can get it back without going through my attorney. He wants to charge over 1/2 the amount to send the paperwork to get the money back.

All you need to do is figure out the forms that need to be prepared, fill them out correctly, file them with the Court, follow up, and make sure the appropriate order is entered.

I am unable to find out what forms are needed in Missouri. The court won't tell me and my Lawyer wants most of the money to do it. I've called around and have been very frustrated in finding an answer to this.
