Bankruptcy Process: What you should expect

When declaring bankruptcy in Collingwood there are several steps involved in the process. Here is a brief overview of the bankruptcy process from BDO.

Arrange a complimentary meeting/appointment

Our representatives will begin by assessing your financial situation and gathering information on your income, outstanding debts and assets. Following this review, our representatives will have a better idea of your circumstances and help you make an informed decision about filing for bankruptcy in Collingwood.

Creditors are notified

The trustee will notify your creditors. A meeting of creditors may be called, depending on the size of your bankruptcy or if your creditors call for a meeting. The main purpose of this meeting is to give your creditors a chance to learn the details of your situation and give directions to the trustee if they wish.

Credit counselling

When filing for bankruptcy in Collingwood, you are obligated to attend two mandatory counselling sessions. Held at the trustees office, these sessions are designed to help you better understand the situation that cause debt, and the solutions you can use in the future to manage it.

Receiving your discharge

The trustee will prepare a report describing your actions during the bankruptcy and will recommend your “discharge” if you have performed all of your duties. Once you receive your discharge, this is the end of the process and you will be released from the debts that were included in your bankruptcy.
