Client Testimonials

Allow Our Former Clients to Tell You What Sets Us Apart
    "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.
    "Very Thorough"
    Brant never left us uninformed. We never hesitated to ask question and he was very thorough in answering which made us comfortable. He was very reassuring during the whole process, which was over in no time. I recommend him to anyone wanting things done right the first time.
    - Lisa
    "Brant was very helpful and patient."
    Brant was very helpful and patient. He did not hesitate to answer any and all of my questions. Positive experience overall.
    - Damian M.
    "Very supporting"
    Helped my wife and I solve our nightmare. He was very supportive. Any questions we had were answered immediately and taken care of. I would recommend him to anyone who has credit problems.
    - Lawson
    "What I value most about my interaction is Brants expertise and integrity"
    I spoke with Brant ( one of the senior attorneys) regarding my wage garnishment situation and got a lot of help and information with my court case. From filling out contact form online to having a consultation was a fast and flawless process. What I value most about my interaction is Brants expertise and integrity while at the same time a down to earth interaction. Thank you 🙏
