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.

Allow Our Former Clients to Tell You What Sets Us Apart

"Compassionate Counsel is an excellent name—it describes them to a "T""
When I met Kris Childers I was a complete financial and emotional disaster. I had just been served with four lawsuits in a matter of two weeks. I was working with another company trying to repay my debts. Kris was reviewing their cases and came upon mine and called me. I was not open to the idea of bankruptcy. We spoke at length, and he finally got through to me, convincing me this would be the only "sane" solution to the burden I was carrying.
His kind and gentle manner in handling my case made this so much easier. He went out of his way to pick up and drop off paperwork for me to review and sign. He answered all of my questions repeatedly. I just could not believe that heavy a financial burden could be eliminated. I can't thank Kris enough for talking sense into me. Compassionate Counsel is an excellent name for this company. It describes them to a "T", and I would not hesitate for a second to recommend their services to others who need financial help and counseling. Thank you, Kris and Brandt

"Skill & integrity."
Brant was professional but also appropriately frank and forthright.

"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!

"He's a really cool human being and I'm glad that there are lawyers out there like him!"
Looking into this kind of thing is really stressful and confusing but Brant totally took that all away. He took time out of his day to answer my questions, give me some tools and was super transparent about the process. He's a really cool human being and I'm glad that there are lawyers out there like him! Thanks again!
