Our Peterborough office, conveniently located at 398 McDonnel St, offers a safe, judgment-free space where you can explore your options. Whether you are looking to find a debt expert to stop wage garnishments or need to hire a trustee to file a consumer proposal, SPERGEL combines professional expertise with genuine human compassion. You are not just a file number to us; you are a person deserving of a fresh start.

Consumer Proposals

A consumer proposal is often the best-kept secret in debt relief. It is a legally binding agreement negotiated by a Licensed Insolvency Trustee that allows you to pay back only a percentage of what you owe. Our team specializes in crafting proposals that are affordable for you and acceptable to your creditors. Benefits include:

• Stop Creditor Actions: The moment your proposal is filed, all collection calls, lawsuits, and wage garnishments must stop by law.
• Reduce Your Debt: You could reduce your unsecured debt by up to 80%, depending on your financial situation.
• Freeze Interest: Interest stops accumulating immediately, meaning every dollar you pay goes towards clearing the principal.
• Keep Your Assets: Unlike some forms of bankruptcy, a consumer proposal usually allows you to keep your home and car.

If you are overwhelmed by bills and looking to book a free consultation, SPERGEL can help you determine if a consumer proposal is the right path for you.

Personal Bankruptcy Services

Sometimes, bankruptcy is the most logical and responsible solution to an unmanageable financial situation. It is not a sign of failure, but a legal tool designed to provide honest debtors with relief. Our Bankruptcy Trustees guide you through the process with dignity and respect. We assist with:

• Filing and Administration: We handle all the necessary paperwork and legal filings to start your protection immediately.
• Credit Counselling: As part of the process, we provide two mandatory counselling sessions to teach you budgeting and money management skills for a successful financial future.
• Discharge: We work with you to ensure you complete your duties so you can be discharged from your debts and start rebuilding.

Debt Consolidation vs. Licensed Trustees

Many people confuse debt consolidation loans with the services provided by a Licensed Insolvency Trustee. While a loan simply moves your debt to a new lender (often with high interest if your credit is poor), a Trustee uses federal laws to actually reduce the amount you owe. SPERGEL offers:

• Legal Power: Only a Licensed Insolvency Trustee has the legal authority to stop garnishments and legal actions.
• Federally Regulated: Our fees and practices are regulated by the government, ensuring transparency and fairness.
