Licensed Insolvency Trustees

Advice & practical solutions for bankruptcy,
consumer proposals, and credit card debt.

Licensed Insolvency Trustees

Licensed Insolvency Trustees or bankruptcy trustees, are licensed professionals who assist individuals and businesses in overcoming financial difficulties, primarily through two methods: bankruptcy and consumer proposals.

Key responsibilities of insolvency trustees include:

  • Managing Financial Affairs: They take charge of the financial affairs of insolvent parties, ensuring fair and legal management.
  • Regulation and Oversight: Their operations are regulated by the Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy, a federal government agency, to maintain standard practices.
  • Government-Appointed Assistance: As appointees of the government, they are entrusted with administering bankruptcies and consumer proposals to aid people in resolving their financial challenges.

This role is essential in providing a structured and legal approach to financial recovery for those facing insolvency.

What does an Insolvency Trustee do?

A Licensed Insolvency Trustee (LIT) primarily focuses on three key areas:

  • Administering Insolvency Processes: They handle the legal aspects of bankruptcy and consumer proposals, ensuring compliance with relevant laws.
  • Mediating Between Debtors and Creditors: LITs act as intermediaries, negotiating terms and facilitating communication between those in debt and their creditors.
  • Providing Financial Guidance and Compliance: They offer essential advice on managing finances, conduct asset liquidation if necessary, and ensure all parties adhere to the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act.

Through these roles, an Insolvency Trustee plays a critical part in guiding individuals and businesses towards financial recovery and stability

Filing for Bankruptcy

Filing for bankruptcy is the legal process for insolvency. Bankruptcy enables individuals or businesses in financial distress to eliminate their debts and start afresh with relief.

Benefits of this process can include:

  • Protection: protection from creditor actions such as wage garnishments or legal proceedings.
  • Financial Relief : enabling individuals or businesses to obtain financial relief and start afresh.
  • Structured process to start over: Bankruptcy provides a structured and formal process that will help you financially.

What to expect during the bankruptcy process:

  • Meeting with a trustee: If you or your business are considering insolvency, speak to one of our insolvency trustees. The trustee will listen to you and answer any questions you may have.
  • Surrendering assets: In a bankruptcy, you assign (surrender) non-exempt assets to a Licensed Insolvency Trustee. In exchange, debts are forgiven.
  • Exempt assets: Surrendering assets may be upsetting, but most of your personal items would be exempt from surrender with limits.

If you’re struggling and exhausted other solutions, bankruptcy may be an effective option. Where you decide to proceed, we’ll be at your side completing all the paperwork and all forms.

What is a Consumer Proposal?

Reduce your debts by up to 70% and keep all your belongings with a Consumer proposals.

This legal process slashes what you owe, typically by around 70%. It’s a smart alternative to bankruptcy, helping you avoid its negative impacts.

By opting for a consumer proposal, you work with a licensed insolvency trustee. The trustee assess your financial situation to present a proposal for your creditors. This proposal clearly details your financial status, your capacity to repay debts, and the terms of a manageable repayment plan.

Choose a consumer proposal for a financially smarter and less stressful solution

Creditors are given the opportunity to accept or reject the proposal.

If the proposal is accepted by a majority of the creditors, it becomes legally binding and the individual is required to follow the terms of the proposal.

The benefits to a consumer proposal include:

  • repay only a portion of what’s owed
  • stops wage garnishments and legal proceedings
  • provides a sense of relief and path to get out of debt

Most consumers proposals reduce their debt by 70 percent or more, with a payment plan over 3 to 5 years and no interest fees.
