Allow Our Former Clients to Tell You What Sets Us Apart
    "Kris explained everything to me and it went smoothly."
    Kris did a great job. It's the first time going through bankruptcy and I was a little nervous about it. Kris explained everything to me and it went smoothly. Thank you so much for everything.

    "Clear & Concise"
    I met with Mr. Brant Edward Hodyno to discuss a very timely legal situation that other lawyers were unable to handle for me. Mr. Hodyno listened carefully and reviewed my options, clearly and concisely. He took the time to make a direct, related call while I was there and assured me that I could relax and that he would have the situation handled in the morning. The next morning he called and told me that the situation was handled and over.
    I have been dealing with this situation for a long time and Mr. Brant Hodyno was able to understand my personal anxiety and end the stress in 24 hours! He was professional, articulate, and a pleasure to call my lawyer.

    "One of the nicest people I've ever met"
    Brant is one of the nicest and most helpful people I've ever met. I was homeless, living at a veterans shelter when we met at a veterans' "Stand Down" in Glendale, AZ. The reason for my struggles were a judgement that me and my wife couldn't afford to pay off and due to it we lost our driver's license and eventually my job as a heavy transport driver. Brant offer me and my family his services at no-cost (pro bono). At the time we were going to file for bankruptcy but after getting re-employed we decided to try and pay the judgement off. Thanks to Brant's status as an attorney and good negotiating skills we settle for less that we owed. Me and my family couldn't thank you enough, Brant. Thank You!!
