Traits to Look for when Choosing an Ohio Bankruptcy Lawyer

Find an Ohio bankruptcy lawyer who has experience with the type of filing you anticipate having to make

Chapter 7 -- This type of bankruptcy, often referred to as "liquidation," involves turning the vast majority of your assets (investments, properties, long-term accounts) into liquid cash to pay down debts. While you can't pay off all of your debts this way (palimony, alimony, and tax obligations may still remain), you can get some much-needed breathing room.

Chapter 13 -- This type of bankruptcy allows consumers to reorganize how their debt is structured, to get some of it excused, and to protect major assets from being seized. For instance, if a bank is threatening to foreclose on your house, you might be able to protect that asset by filing Chapter 13.

Chapter 11 -- This is a special provision for businesses that have been unable to manage their finances.

Chapter 12 -- This is a special provision for farmers who are experiencing financial trauma.

Well-credentialed

Your Ohio bankruptcy lawyer might have the following:

Membership in the Ohio State Bar

Membership in the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys

A teaching position at a local law school

Published articles or books about bankruptcy

Awards/commendations

Certification from the American Bankruptcy Institute

A degree from a prestigious university and/or law school

Great support team

Your Ohio bankruptcy lawyer should have enough time and resources to give you the attention you need to make the best decisions possible. He or she should provide you access to bankruptcy experts to tackle whatever subtle issues arise during the course of your filing and petitioning. His or her firm should have a solid reputation in the community and should not be overloaded with casework.

A reasonable and equitable pay-structure

The amount of money you pay your attorney will depend intimately on the details of your case, including its complexity, its anticipated duration, the amount of debt you need to dispatch, and your long-term prospects of repayment. Make sure you understand the fee structure and are in agreement with it before utilizing an attorney's services.
