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 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.

"Truly Cares"Brant Hodyno truly cares! You would be wise to have this man on your side. I could say so much, but how about some facts: 1. The first time I ever spoke to Brant on the phone; the length of the the call and the number of questions I had, were what other attorney's would consider a consultation and probably either charge you for or simply have you make an appointment for. Brant allowed me to exhaust all my questions and answered in kind. 2. Brant allowed me to make payments to him and in the meantime he kept the creditors / collectors at bay even though I had not signed a contract yet. 3. After many months (he never once pushed or badgered for me to file) I decided to not file after all and desperately needed money for a family emergency, Brant returned a large sum of money to me and said he wants to help in any way he can! He did! He cared about me even when he had nothing financial to gain! I don't know what more i can say other than, Brant, thank you, once again!- Mike Elrod

"They made me feel confident in their work during the whole process"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.

"As I am writing this, they are reaching out to their network with the goal of finding someone like them to help a veteran who requires assistance seeking justice."I reached out to Bryan and Kristopher at Compassionate Counsel in an expertise they do not practice on. Instead of ignoring me, they replied in minutes offering help finding someone who could help me without causing me financial hardship. As I am writing this, they are reaching out to their network with the goal of finding someone like them to help a veteran who requires assistance seeking justice.- Matthew R.
-
"I am so glad I chose them to help me through it"Both Kris and Brant were wonderful to work with! They made the process so easy and less intimidating. Both were always so quick to reach out when I had any questions and always helped alleviate any concerns I had. I appreciate so much that I was never left wondering what was going on with my case, and loved how easy they were to talk to - I never felt overwhelmed with legal terms! They are genuinely compassionate in what is a very stressful time and I am so glad I chose them to help me through it. 100% recommend!- Rachel M.
