• How much does it cost to hire Fatin for a bankruptcy case?

  Cost depends on the type of matter, the fee model (contingency, flat, hourly), and how contested the case becomes. Fatin walks through the likely range during the consult so there are no surprises.

• Does Fatin offer a free consultation?

  Fatin charges for the initial consult; that fee is credited toward representation if you retain Fatin's office. Some bankruptcy attorneys offer free consults — check Fatin's current terms during booking.

• How long do bankruptcy cases in Ohio typically take?

  Simple bankruptcy matters can wrap in a few weeks; disputed cases can run 6–18 months from intake to resolution, longer if the matter goes to trial. Fatin gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Fatin take my case if I'm outside Columbus?

  Fatin is licensed in Ohio. Matters governed by Ohio law are the natural fit. Out-of-state matters are handled case-by-case, sometimes with local co-counsel. Ask during intake — Fatin will tell you if the case is a fit or refer you to someone closer to your court.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Fatin?

  Bring every document that touches the dispute: contracts, correspondence, police or medical reports, filed pleadings, invoices, photographs, insurance letters. Also bring a written timeline of what happened, in your own words. Fatin will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

• Is Fatin accepting new bankruptcy clients right now?

  Fatin's intake status shifts week to week. Submit the form; the office will confirm availability or refer the matter out.
