Their mission is to use the powerful tools of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code to stop creditor harassment, prevent foreclosure, and provide clients with a true 'fresh start.'

Comprehensive Bankruptcy Solutions

The firm specializes almost exclusively in Bankruptcy Law, which allows them to handle even the most complex financial situations with ease. They provide expert guidance on Chapter 7 liquidation, which can eliminate unsecured debts like credit cards and medical bills in a matter of months. For those who have regular income but are behind on mortgage or car payments, they craft sustainable Chapter 13 repayment plans to stop repossession and catch up on arrears over time. If you need to find a lawyer who can halt a wage garnishment or unfreeze a bank account immediately, Ohio Legal Clinic offers the rapid response and legal authority you need.

• Chapter 7 Bankruptcy: Wiping out qualifying debt to help clients reset their financial lives.
• Foreclosure Defense: Using the automatic stay to stop sheriff's sales and keep families in their homes.
• Debt Relief: Ending the cycle of minimum payments and high interest rates through legal debt restructuring.
• Creditor Harassment: suing debt collectors who violate federal laws by harassing clients after they have retained counsel.

Affordable Access to Justice

One of the hallmarks of the Ohio Legal Clinic is its commitment to accessibility. They understand that clients seeking their help are already in financial distress, which is why they offer competitive flat fees and flexible payment options. In many cases, they can file a Chapter 13 case for little to no money down, with attorney fees paid through the court-approved repayment plan. This approach ensures that quality legal representation is not a luxury, but a right available to everyone. The firm's attorneys are aggressive against creditors but approachable and supportive with their clients, explaining every step of the legal process in plain language.
