Help and advice to anyone considering personal bankruptcy.
Personal bankruptcy is a legal process that offers you legal protection from creditors and eliminates your debts.
Hundreds of thousands of Canadians struggle with debt every day, and while for many there are other ways to deal with their debt, for an average of 60,000 Canadians every year, bankruptcy is the only option.

Unlike other options, the cost of a bankruptcy is not based on the amount of debt you have. The cost is based on your income; the lower your income, the lower the costs. A bankruptcy costs less than other options.
