Seeking Solutions You Need to Secure a Brighter Future
Our Powerful Debt Relief Services
No matter how hopeless your circumstances may feel, you have options. Filing for bankruptcy may be the right choice for you if you are ready to start fresh. Whether you can commit to a repayment plan or are prepared to liquidate non-exempt assets, filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy can help you put your financial problems behind you.
When you file for either type of consumer bankruptcy, you will be protected by the automatic stay. This court order prevents creditors from taking action against you, meaning bankruptcy can be used to stop foreclosures, repossessions, creditor lawsuits, and wage garnishments. In many cases, the automatic stay remains in effect for the duration of your bankruptcy case.
If bankruptcy is not the right choice for your specific situation, we encourage you to consider debt negotiation and settlement, instead.
Our Scottsdale bankruptcy lawyers and debt settlement attorneys can assist you with:
- Debt Resolution Program. You are making payments on time but are still struggling to stay afloat. We are here to advise you on a solution that's in your best interest, not our pocketbooks, with continuing credit education, advice and support, even after we have resolved your credit issues.
- Chapter 7 Bankruptcy. This type of bankruptcy can help you quickly secure a clean slate. Through the liquidation of your non-exempt assets, you can begin to build a stable future and obtain the peace of mind you deserve.
- General Legal Services. We will in some limited cases assist clients with matters of estate planning, asset protection, divorce, personal injury claims, and small business reorganization.

"Someone you can trust"
Brant Hodyno is definitely someone you can trust and he truly cares. When I contacted him about the possibility of filing Chapter 7, he provided a solicitous phone consultation that was very thorough. Even though we determined that I can't file right away due to a Life Estate issue on my family property, I know if my situation changes I will be contacting him immediately. I recommend him 100% for any Bankruptcy filing.

"Couldn’t Ask for Better"Brant was so helpful throughout the bankruptcy process. He got back to me quickly when I had questions and made sure I knew everything to do. He was always very understanding and kind. Would definitely recommend him!- Mallory

"Extremely well-versed in the laws and statutes in Arizona regarding bankruptcy."Brant at Compassionate Counsel had excellent advice on very short notice regarding a bankruptcy question I had ...which he answered with a personal phone call minutes after I posted the question. He was clearly extremely well-versed in the laws and statutes in Arizona regarding bankruptcy and I was immediately relieved of a massive amount of stress to have spoken with him. Highly recommended. Thanks, Brant!- Donell M.

"Honesty & integrity"My girlfriend found Mr. Hodyno on this same website in order to help me with a gargantuan debt that had accrued from a long-neglected court restitution. I was reluctant to call anybody at first, being that I tend to be pessimistic and skeptical that there is a solution to such situations. She convinced me to call various lawyers and Mr. Hodyno was the only one willing to really even hear out my situation past the point of me explaining my financial limitations and that I can't afford to pay a lawyer. Over the period of a little more than a week we spoke a few times and he explained to me that he could charge me a $200 fee to do the same thing I could just do myself for free by contacting the collections agency and asking a specific question and then getting back to him with their response. Once I did what he had walked me through to do he explained that based on the agency's response he could tell me that sadly there was no recourse for my situation which of course was disappointing, but he also explained that there are plenty of lawyers out there who would have charged me a 200 - plus-dollar fee knowing in advance that there was no easy answer to my situation and thus essentially would have ended up stealing from me and adding at least $200 to my already sizable debt. Thanks to Mr. Hodyno's honesty, integrity, humanity and willingness to talk me through a relatively simple few steps I can now rest in the knowing that the debt is just something I will have to be diligent about and chip away at over time - minus $200! I know it may sound disappointing in that I did not get the ideal outcome, but I genuinely appreciated Mr. Hodyno's guidance and willingness to take the time to be straight with me. Thanks, Brant!- Kevin

"Do yourself a favor and call Compassionate Counsel today"Compassionate Counsel may sound too good to be true, but it's not. My call with Brant was quick and reassuring.

"I definitely recommend Compassionate Counsel"I've always thought that lawyers would be hard to work with, but Kris made it easy for me to understand every step of the process. He was available by e-mail or phone even when he was out on vacation. Being stressed out of not knowing what to do when you've gotten yourself in this situation of too much debt comes with the territory, but Kris understood me and my situation and assured me things will run smoothly. As long as you have all your paperwork, cross your Ts and dot your Is, then things will fall into place. I definitely recommend Compassionate Counsel and speak with Kristopher Childers or Brant Hodyno. They absolutely are compassionate. Their company name says it all!- R.M.
