Bankruptcy in Etobicoke

There are several major steps when beginning the process for filing for bankruptcy in Etobicoke. Listed is an overview of the BDO bankruptcy process.

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 Etobicoke.

Creditors are notified

Your trustee will send a notice to all of your creditors, advising them that you are no longer able to make payments to them. The creditors will then have 45 days to consider the offer. During this time you do not have to make any payments to your creditors.

Credit counselling

You must attend two mandatory counselling sessions. Both of these sessions are held at the trustee’s office and are mandatory for the bankruptcy process. These counselling sessions will help you understand how to budget better and manage your finances.

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.
