We promise our clients a direct relationship with a skilled attorney.

Our name, Compassionate Counsel, is an honest, accurate description of the services we provide.

We also take pride in our pro bono efforts, ensuring that legal assistance is accessible to those who need it most.

Using Our Broad Knowledge and Background for Your Specific Situation

The business model we created for Compassionate Counsel was already significantly different than most other law firms in that we always deal directly with clients. (We answer our own phones; client communications are always directly with an attorney.) The onset of COVID-19 and the shutdown that followed prompted us to adopt software and technology platforms that promote personal interaction, online security, and ease of use. We upgraded our primary case management software provider to provide clients a better end user experience. We started using video conferencing technology including Zoom and Facetime for a more personal experience during one-on-one consultations and follow-ups. And we purchased a secure online portal solution (Verifyle) for encrypted document collection and discussion of sensitive matters.

We care about our clients. Many are already overwhelmed with stress and anxiety as they begin the bankruptcy process. COVID has heightened those emotions. Our goal is to reduce the stress involved with their representation.

Client Testimonials

Allow Our Former Clients to Tell You What Sets Us Apart

"Skill & integrity"
After careful consideration and a couple of years of struggle, we made the decision to contact an attorney to weigh the pros/cons of filing for a Chapter 7. We were very hesitant about the idea of filing for bankruptcy and totally dreading the whole process. I chose to contact Brant based on various reviews and his informative website. His fees are reasonable & from the time I contacted his office to picking up my final paperwork, Brant was great. He made himself available to us by phone, email, and in person through the entire process and was always very quick to get back to me. He was professional but also appropriately frank and forthright. He prepared us for possible difficult turns but assured us he would do everything he could to get us through with a Chapter 7 - and he did. He prepared us for the 341 meeting, calming our nerves and concerns with helpful information and encouragement. If you are trying to decide what you need to do and don't know where to turn, call Brant Hodyno. He will answer your questions honestly and will handle your case with skill and integrity.

"Best in class"
This law firm has to be the best in class in Arizona. I would recommend this firm to anyone who needs legal needs for bankruptcy. From my personal experience, both Brant & Kris are excellent. They have reasonable prices but their personal attention, communication and professionalism are priceless. These two lawyers love what they do and they try to find the best solutions for every need. Take it from someone who shopped around over ten lawyers before choosing this firm. The moment you get on the phone with them they do not rush you and are exactly described as their business, compassionate.

- Jeffery Forrester
"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.

"Thank you again"
It's not often you find an attorney that will spend 30 minutes trying to come up with a realistic way to get you out of a financial nightmare. I was beyond surprised and relieved to receive such personable and quality advice. I'm not out of the woods yet, but with this sound advice, I feel I can take the first steps towards a better tomorrow. Thank you again for all the help.
