Three steps to a cash settlement in Ohio.

We demand the manufacturer pay

We file a formal demand citing both Ohio Rev. Code § 1345.71 (Ohio Lemon Law) and federal MMWA. Most demands resolve in 60–120 days. If the manufacturer ignores or lowballs, we file in N.D., S.D. Ohio federal courts; 6th Circuit on appeal.

Cash in hand

You keep your vehicle. The manufacturer pays you cash for diminished value. We seek to have the manufacturer pay our attorney fees separately under federal warranty law, they don't come out of your settlement.

You keep the car. You keep the cash.

We don't push buybacks or replacements. We pursue cash settlements under Ohio Rev. Code § 1345.71 (Ohio Lemon Law) and federal MMWA. You stay in your vehicle. We get a check from the manufacturer. That's it.

Ohio lemon law FAQs

Real questions Ohio consumers ask. Plain English answers.

Does the Ohio lemon law cover used vehicles?+

Ohio Rev. Code § 1345.71 (Ohio Lemon Law) primarily covers new vehicles. The federal Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (MMWA) frequently extends to used vehicles that came with any written warranty, manufacturer remaining warranty, certified pre-owned warranty, or a dealer's used-car warranty. We evaluate whether your case fits state law, federal MMWA, or both.

How many repair attempts does Ohio require?+

Ohio's statutory presumption: 3 repair attempts OR 30 days out of service in first year / 18,000 miles. Federal MMWA does not set a fixed number, it requires a 'reasonable opportunity' for the manufacturer to repair, which is fact-specific.

Do I have to arbitrate before suing in Ohio?+

Ohio arbitration rules: Manufacturer-sponsored arbitration if certified. Federal MMWA claims generally do NOT require manufacturer-sponsored arbitration as a prerequisite to suit.

Who pays my attorney fees in a Ohio lemon law case?+

Under federal MMWA, the manufacturer pays the consumer's reasonable attorney fees when the consumer prevails. Ohio Rev. Code § 1345.71 (Ohio Lemon Law) also typically allows fee recovery. Lemonaid Firm works on contingency, no fees out of your pocket.
