What Does a Bankruptcy Lawyer in Delaware Cost?
The cost to hire a bankruptcy lawyer in Ohio typically ranges from $1,200 to $2,500 for a simple Chapter 7 case. Chapter 13 cases often cost more, from $2,500 to $5,000, because they require more court filings and a longer repayment plan. These fees do not include the court filing fee, which is $338 for Chapter 7 and $313 for Chapter 13. Costs vary by case complexity and attorney experience. This is general information, not legal advice.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the income limits for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Ohio?
To qualify for Chapter 7 in Ohio, your household income must be below the median for a similar size household in the state. The median income for a single person in Ohio is around $55,000 as of 2024. If your income is higher, you may still qualify after passing the means test.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in Ohio?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. These time limits are set by federal law and apply uniformly in Ohio.
Can I keep my house if I file for bankruptcy in Delaware, Ohio?
Ohio law provides a homestead exemption of up to $145,425 for your primary residence. If your home equity is below this amount, you can likely keep your house in a Chapter 7 case. In Chapter 13, you can catch up on missed mortgage payments through a repayment plan.
