What we do

BDO bankruptcy trustees offer debt help options 

Each year, BDO professionals helps thousands of Canadians control their future. We offer professional guidance on how to resolve your debt problems. While dealing with financial problems can be very emotional, our BDO professionals pride themselves on providing expert debt management strategies in a respectful manner that promotes your dignity, eases your fears, relieves your stress and helps you to get back to living your life.

No obligation consultation

At BDO, our advisors provide confidential, no obligation consultations to help you decide on the best debt solution option to meet your needs.  In an initial consultation, we start by listening to get a better understanding of your financial situation.  Your BDO advisor will inquire about your income and what assets you have, as well as ask for information about your budget, expenses, and outstanding debts.   Once we understand your complete financial situation, your BDO advisor will explain possible debt management options that can help you overcome your financial problems. These may include budget and credit counselling, debt consolidation, and repayment through a consumer proposal or filing for bankruptcy.  

Our debt management services

At BDO, we specialize in helping you:

  • Navigate the process of filing for bankruptcy and guiding you through the bankruptcy steps
  • Draft a practical proposal to creditors (also known as a consumer proposal) to help you negotiate how much you will pay back and the time period for repayment
  • Develop better budgeting and money management skills through our credit counselling sessions
  • Connect you to other debt consultants and professional advisors in situations where filing for bankruptcy or making a proposal are not suitable solutions

You BDO advisor will explain the pros and cons of the options available to help you get out of debt and answer any questions you may have about your debt management options.

Qualified, licensed BDO professionals

Our BDO advisors include credit counsellors, Trustees in Bankruptcy and proposal administrators who are trained, certified and knowledgeable about dealing with debt in Canada. Our BDO Trustees in Bankruptcy are licensed by the Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy (OSB), an agency of Industry Canada. Trustees can also provide debt counselling, negotiate settlement agreements on your behalf, and help you make a proposal to your creditors to consolidate debt and avoid bankruptcy. Trustee fees are regulated by the federal government and, therefore, often cost less than other debt management consultants or debt solution providers.

For complete information, and to answer your questions thoroughly, we encourage you to contact your local BDO office or request a call.
