Our Powerful Debt Relief Services

No matter how hopeless your circumstances may feel, you have options. Filing for bankruptcy may be the right choice for you if you are ready to start fresh. Whether you can commit to a repayment plan or are prepared to liquidate non-exempt assets, filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy can help you put your financial problems behind you. 

When you file for either type of consumer bankruptcy, you will be protected by the automatic stay. This court order prevents creditors from taking action against you, meaning bankruptcy can be used to stop foreclosures, repossessions, creditor lawsuits, and wage garnishments. In many cases, the automatic stay remains in effect for the duration of your bankruptcy case.

If bankruptcy is not the right choice for your specific situation, we encourage you to consider debt negotiation and settlement, instead.

Client Testimonials

Allow Our Former Clients to Tell You What Sets Us Apart
    "Compassionate Counsel is an excellent name—it describes them to a "T""

    When I met Kris Childers I was a complete financial and emotional disaster. I had just been served with four lawsuits in a matter of two weeks. I was working with another company trying to repay my debts. Kris was reviewing their cases and came upon mine and called me. I was not open to the idea of bankruptcy. We spoke at length, and he finally got through to me, convincing me this would be the only "sane" solution to the burden I was carrying.

    His kind and gentle manner in handling my case made this so much easier. He went out of his way to pick up and drop off paperwork for me to review and sign. He answered all of my questions repeatedly. I just could not believe that heavy a financial burden could be eliminated. I can't thank Kris enough for talking sense into me. Compassionate Counsel is an excellent name for this company. It describes them to a "T", and I would not hesitate for a second to recommend their services to others who need financial help and counseling. Thank you, Kris and Brandt

    "Glad I pursued assistance"
    Brent was helpful and gave his best opinion after reviewing my documents, he also gave me a similar situation he been through that was related to mine.
    Thanks!

    "Great legal team who takes care of all your needs."

    "What a rarity it is to find an attorney who "walks the walk." Compassionate Counsel is truly what this firm provides"
    I spoke with Brant a couple times on the phone regarding my son's financial hardships and both times I hung up feeling that I had received accurate, understanding, and caring advice. Both phone calls were received quickly after my reaching out to him too. What a rarity it is to find an attorney who "walks the walk." Compassionate Counsel is truly what this firm provides. I recommend them with 100% assurance that you will be blown away by the caring and knowledgeable service you will receive.

    "Solid Advice When I Needed It"
    I hired Hodyno to help me fight a mistake on my credit report. Dealing with the creditor had been terrible to this point, and I was at a dead end. Hodyno was empathetic during our phone call but made it a point to manage my expectations. In the end, we weren't able to get the creditor to change the language, but Hodyno was able to get me a full record of my payments from the creditor to support my dispute (which were not being released to me, neither before nor since!) He was prompt, thorough, and honest.
    Sometimes you just need an attorney to turn to for solid advice, someone to actually help you. I recommend Brant Hodyno.
    - Paul
    "Thanks, Brant! I wish all attorneys were like you!"
    I called a law firm with one "yes" or "no" question. They said I'd need a 30-minute consultation and pay $250. I called Brant, and he had no problem answering me. He also gave me advice on how to catch the scammers who were calling. Thanks, Brant! I wish all attorneys were like you!
