4 Pillars or A Licensed Insolvency Trustee: your best option in Edmonton

4 Pillars or A Licensed Insolvency Trustee: your best option in Edmonton

Living with debt is like trying to walk on quicksand.  The more you struggle to get out the deeper you seem to sink.  Before you know it you’re drowning in debt and you start to believe you have no choice but to declare bankruptcy.  But bankruptcy may not be the end of debt lifeline you’ve been lead to believe.  In fact, Bankruptcy could prove to be more harmful, financially, in the long run. You clearly need help but who can you trust to work on your behalf to create the best financial solution for your particular situation?

4 Pillars Edmonton Debt Consultants work for the YOU the consumer.  Trustees Work for your Creditors. 

Before filing for Bankruptcy or a Consumer Proposal there are some very important facts you need to know.  First of all, you are legally required to go through a Licensed Insolvency Trustee. Formerly known as a Bankruptcy Trustee, a Licensed Insolvency Trustee or LIT is NOT legally required to work in your best interests.  In fact, the Trustee has several statutory obligations under the Act, none of which is to act as a financial advisor to a consumer struggling with consumer debt. Nor are they obligated to help you get the best possible result when making a consumer proposal or filing for bankruptcy.  Plus, they have a fiduciary duty to your creditors.  However, you are not without hope, and help.  Although you are legally required to file through a trustee, there is nothing preventing you from having an expert of your own to navigate the process, advocate on your behalf, and ensure you get the best possible outcome for your personal situation.

Come February, when you start thinking about your taxes, do you just send your T4 slip into the Canadian Revenue Agency and let them figure out what you should get back?  NO.  It’s not in the CRA’s best interest to look for every possible tax savings on your return.  That’s why you hire a professional who specializes in maximizing your tax return.

In the same vein when you are considering a Consumer Proposal or Bankruptcy it is always to your advantage to have an advocate working your behalf to maximize your debt reduction or map out the best options for your debt settlement. 4 Pillars Debt Consultants work for you and only you.  There is no conflict of interest.  4 Pillars’ works to reduce your debt by up to 80 percent.  They then work with you on a comprehensive credit rebuilding plan so you are not left vulnerable to future financial challenges. In fact, 4 Pillars will see you debt free within 5 years, and they will get you there with compassion, and understanding, not judgement or blame.

4 Pillars Culture of Caring 

4 Pillars has helped thousands of Canadians see their way out of debt.  With a little tenacity and persistence, our Debt Specialist in Barrie Ontario was able to help a young family avoid bankruptcy and reduce their debt from $120,000 to $19,500.

A young family approached 4 Pillars looking for help with their debt. They’d been to a Trustee in Toronto who told them they could only reduce their debt to $81,000 leaving them with a monthly payment of $1350.  This amount was still more than they could afford and they feared they would soon lose everything.  The 4 Pillars Debt Specialist knew there were better options for this hard working family and she set out to reduce their debt even further. Through perseverance she negotiated with the bankruptcy trustees to structure a Consumer Proposal this young family could afford; taking their monthly payments from a staggering $3500 a month to an affordable $350 a month over the next 60 months!
