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.

I could not be more pleased with Mr. Hodyno as an attorney and how he has represented myself and my wife. He went the extra mile and did much more than expected. I shall be forever grateful for his expertise in my case. Oh, and by the way, He is a very good person as well and believes his client's are #1 and he shows that he is proud to help people with their problems. I recommend him highly for anyone that requires an attorney.- Walter

If this was a service you go to repeatedly I definitely would! I started with a different attorney who I had zero confidence in and thankfully got a referral for Compassionate Counsel because it was like night and day. They are thorough, knowledgeable, and friendly. They did not seem annoyed when I asked questions and very attentive when I reached out. They made me feel confident in their work during the whole process. Highly recommend!!- K G.

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. If you are considering bankruptcy look no further, Brant is the most professional, caring Attorney who will put you at ease and does not do anything halfway.- June H

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

My lawyer was extremely good, he answered all my questions, always called me back. He always made me feel at ease. I would definitely recommend him.- Patricia
