"Patient & understanding"If you are looking for an Attorney who will be an advocate for you, then Brant is your man. I can not express how grateful I am to have such a patient and understanding Attorney on my side. He goes above and beyond the norm for all his clients, something that is rare these days.

"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 -
