Making the decision to consult a Licensed Insolvency Trustee to file an assignment in bankruptcy is a difficult first step. Understanding that the Trustee is an Officer of the Court and technically acts in the best interest of your creditors even though you pay their fees may be difficult to comprehend. So, how do you select a Trustee? And why should you choose Taylor Leibow Inc.? As President, I may be a little biased, but let me give you 4 good reasons:

  1. We are here to help you improve your financial situation in a non-judgement manner. Many people are embarrassed that they have found themselves in a situation where they are unable to pay their debt but feel better once we explain that the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act was established to provide relief to an honest but unfortunate debtor. If life has unfortunately found you unable to pay your creditors, we are here to give you a fresh start.
  2. Your initial meeting will be with a Licensed Insolvency Trustee who will be able to answer your questions with the education and experience of a qualified professional. We will fully review your financial situation and explain all solutions. Based on the information you provide, we will also explain any issues that may arise. This isn’t to scare you; it is to ensure that you make an informed decision. 
  3. We care. We are here to provide you relief from creditor collection proceedings and then to help you through the bankruptcy process. We are proud of the testimonials posted on our website at https://freshstartnow.ca/testimonials/. We have an amazing team. An email from a recent bankrupt stating, “I kind of miss you all. Your staff was always a pleasant visit for me,” is a testament to our compassionate team. They take the time to listen and understand that a pressing question deserves a prompt response.
  4. We are local and available for in-person meetings at one of our 5 locations. If you are not comfortable with attending our offices, we will schedule a virtual meeting.

Julie and I have been helping debtors file an assignment in bankruptcy for over 25 years. 

 Let us help you get a financial fresh start.
