Eviction Lawyer Fees in Hudson
Eviction lawyer fees in Hudson, Ohio average about $1,100 — roughly 93% of the U.S. average and below the Ohio state average of $1,150.
What this typically includes
Preparing and serving the required notice, filing and prosecuting (or defending) the eviction / unlawful-detainer case, and representation at the hearing. Court filing fees, service of process, and the sheriff or constable lockout fee are billed separately.
Ohio has no statewide right to counsel for eviction, so tenants generally must hire a lawyer or seek free legal aid, while landlords typically pay a flat fee for an attorney — though some cities provide tenant counsel even where the state does not.
Eviction attorneys in Ohio usually charge a flat fee, lower for an uncontested case and higher when it is contested. Ohio's notice periods, allowed grounds, and any rent-control or just-cause rules shape how the case proceeds and what it costs, and a growing number of cities and states provide free counsel to tenants — so check local programs.
