"Brant and Kris have changed my life and I am forever grateful."
Brant Hodyno and Kristopher Childers of Compassionate Counsel Legal Services have done a detailed and thorough job of helping me through a serious legal minefield. Without getting too specific about my personal situation, I want to encourage anyone needing personal or professional legal guidance and representation to contact them and share their story.
Sometimes the complexity of a situation, legal or otherwise, requires that you need to talk to a law professional who can dissect the problem at hand and give you the overall solution in bites that can be digested. Often times a legal problem has so many layers of nuance and detail that the strategy can only be laid as the research of the problem develops. The average person can dwell on a legal problem to the point of paralysis and still not know the answer. This can be devastating to your emotional well-being.
Part A of a comprehensive solution is explaining the law to you as a client. Advising you what you face, and how it can be dealt with in language you can understand, reviewing the alternatives and exploring the options, and doing the routine, tedious research to set a course that will guide you through troubled legal waters is a daunting task. You will know what you can expect with Compassionate Counsel.
Finding a professional law firm that can follow through and actually deliver on their promises and stay the course can be the Part B that often eludes us. When you are lucky enough to find legal representation who can do both, pay the retainer and let them go to work.
Legal problems need to STAY SOLVED. This can often be the tricky Part C. A good attorney will anticipate this "end game" and create a solution in advance that solves the problem AND keeps it solved. Without a three-part solution, you may find yourself fighting the same problem three years down the road.
Brant & Kris told me what my problem was; how they would battle it; what their strategy would be and what to expect in time, cost, and energy expended. I could not be happier with the results. They have changed my life and I am forever grateful. I would recommend Compassionate Counsel to anyone facing a legal challenge!

"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.- Heather Lynch

"Prompt, thorough, honest"I hired Brant to help me fight a mistake on my credit report. Dealing with a creditor had been terrible to this point and I was at a dead end. Brant 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 Brant 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 O.

"Incredibly Effective"Brant helped both my husband and me, each with separate issues. Brant was there for us and took care of business. The advice he gave Mark was followed and worked out very well. As for me, the enduring situation was dealt with in a manner where I could not ask for more. He was incredibly effective.- Mark Ott
