Ohio Legal Help: Stay in Your Home Despite Eviction Filing

(Jesse Naul)

COLUMBUS, Ohio (News Talk 1480 WHBC) – With the economy still struggling, thousands of Ohioans are facing possible eviction from their homes and apartments due to nonpayment.

The state lawyer-referral website Ohio Legal Help reminds that an eviction is determined in a court of law, not because a landlord tells you to get out.

They recommend that you try to work out a payment plan or seek help from a local non-profit, like the Stark County Community Action Agency.
