    "Very Thorough"
    Brant never left us uninformed. We never hesitated to ask question and he was very thorough in answering which made us comfortable. He was very reassuring during the whole process, which was over in no time. I recommend him to anyone wanting things done right the first time.

    "Class Act"
    Brant was hired on by me as my bankruptcy lawyer. In the middle of my case, the company he was working with started to do unethical practices that Brant was not ok with. Brant ended up starting up his own firm, but I was stuck with the company he was working with before. When it came time for us to go to court, the firm was not prepared whatsoever for our case and they were lacking tons of info for my case. I was told by them not to contact Brant as he had no control of what was going on with my current case. After we went to court and they weren't prepared, I proceeded to fire them and let them just keep my money. I then reached back out to Brant he he picked up where the case was and shuffled appointments around on his schedule to accommodate our new court date. Brant showed up and was prepared to help us with our case. The case is now closed and it is due to all of the hard work that Brant did for us after the last firm messed everything up. I would recommend Brant for any services that he provides as he is all about his customer service and making sure that his clients are informed and educated through the whole process. He is a class act and takes every case that he works personally as if it were him. If you are ever in need of a great lawyer, just reach out to Brant and he will ensure that you are well taken care of! It was easy for me to give him a 5 star review as his service and communication are 2nd to none. You should have nothing but confidence when you hire Brant Hodyno!
    - Justin
    "Very patient"
    Brant was very patient with all my questions and he let me make the decisions that were best for me even if he did not agree. In this day and age to have a lawyer who lets you make the decisions on what effects you is unheard of. I was very happy and came to him on recommendation from a lawyer for one of my creditors who had gone up against him in court and thought Brant was just who I needed and he was right.
