Very Helpful and Professional People

Kristopher Childers and Brant Hodyno were very helpful on dot on what i was looking for. I came with an issue related to a civil case, went to multiple people and they all talked which wasn't related directly in my situation and made me more nervous. Brant was in middle of a client meeting, then a...lso picked my phone and told me text him with contact details. I like the professional way of ack. someone. His counterpart/expert contacted me back in less than an hour. Kristopher Childers - heard me, understood my situation. He didn't go on and on rather asked to produce certain case copies to find out where we stand. He understood and explained what needs to be done with guidance to avoid falling in to such situations. I am a professional in IT field, I like the way they worked with me respecting time of all the parties. Already referred them on my company referral board. Guys, keep doing the great work!!!

Honesty And 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 convi...nced 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!

Class Act Mr. Hodyno

Brant was hired on by me as my bankruptcy lawyer. In the middle of my case, the company he was working with started to do unethical practices that Brant was not ok with. Brant ended up starting up his own firm, but I was stuck with the company he was working with before. When it came time for us t...o go to court, the firm was not prepared whatsoever for our case and they were lacking tons of info for my case. I was told by them not to contact Brant as he had no control of what was going on with my current case. After we went to court and they weren't prepared, I proceeded to fire them and let them just keep my money. I then reached back out to Brant he he picked up where the case was and shuffled appointments around on his schedule to accomadate our new court date. Brant showed up and was prepared to help us with our case. The case is now closed and it is due to all of the hard work that Brant did for us after the last firm messed everything up. I would recommend Brant for any services that he provides as he is all about his customer service and making sure that his clients are informed and educated through the whole process. He is a class act and takes every case that he works personally as if it were him. If you are ever in need of a great lawyer, just reach out to Brant and he will ensure that you are well taken care of! It was easy for me to give him a 5 star review as his service and communication are 2nd to none. You should have nothing but confidence when you hire Brant Hodyno!

Debt Lawsuit Assistance

Brant was incredibly helpful to me from the start in dealing with a lawsuit from my bank regarding an old credit card debt. He was clear about what he could (and couldn't) do for me, and was up front about his costs. He didn't promise anything that he couldn't deliver, and in fact reached a very reas...onable settlement with my bank's lawyers. This debt that has weighed on my mind for nearly a decade has been resolved to everyone's satisfaction and, as a result, has lifted a huge weight off of my shoulders. Although I hope never to be in this situation again, I would immediately call Brant if I was in need of such services again. I would recommend him in a heartbeat to any family or friends who find themselves in need of a debt or bankruptcy attorney.

Great atty saved my home

I had unfortunately hired another atty that had made mistake after mistake and after 2 years in bankruptcy, I was about to lose my home. Called a website on a Friday night and left a recorded message. Brant called first thing the next day (Saturday) and was kind enough to look up my case and put my ...mind at ease w my home. Met him Monday and he immidiately worked w the mortgage company, to clear up the stupid mistakes the other atty had made! I was able to save my home and hired Brant to complete my bankruptcy bc I had been in bankruptcy for over 2 years!! Brant was compassionate and listened to all my concerns, he returned all my phone calls and put my mind at ease. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone that needs a great atty.
