I have to say, I never thought that such process could have been so quick and easy. But then again I guess that's what happens when you deal with professionals. I dealt personally with Rodha Lewis, who was very attentive to my personal issue and very professional on her work. She's someone who will actually take her take and talk to you about the process and help you as much as she can. I am very grateful to her and very appreciative of her work. I couldn't have dealt with someone better. Thank you very much Rodha for your work.

This company and their employees are very professional and friendly. I mostly dealt with Rhoda Lewis (Mississauga office) and I was extremely satisfied with the way she handled my situation and felt at ease through the whole process as she made me feel all the time that she understood my situation and emphatized with me. I entirely recommend this company and Rhoda in particular to anyone who experience financial difficulties and need to sort out their problems without hesitation and confident that they chose the best of the best.

From the moment I made the decision to call David Sklar & Associates, I knew I made the right decision.I didn’t read any reviews, didn’t make my decision based on word of mouth. I simply chose David Sklar & Associates from a Google search, and I’m so glad I did!Spoke to Andrea on my initial call...she could tell I was hysterical from my voice.By the end of that phone call I knew I made the choice, and chose the right company.She referred me to the Mississauga location.That’s when I met Rhoda.After listening to my situation, Rhoda assures me I was making the right move. She explained everything in full detail, and gave me her amazing professional advice.No one wants to be in this predicament, but unfortunately it happens, and YOU are not the only one. Rhoda made sure I understood this.Very empathic, kind, and supportive...always!Fast forward 1 1/2 years, I get my income tax bill. I was shocked to see I “owed” more than I expected. All that time later, I email Mrs Rhoda for some help, and advice. Instant response...Rhoda tells me not to worry, she has included all the excess owed income tax from the past! How amazing is she?!?!Like I said, no one wants to be in this spot. But if you ever find yourself struggling, don’t hesitate! Give David Sklar & Associates a call, and ask to see Rhoda.Best decision I’ve ever made!Thanks David Sklar, and a special thank you to RHODA LEWIS!!

What is a Consumer Proposal – Mississauga?

A Consumer Proposal is a legally binding agreement offered by the federal government that significantly reduces the amount of debt you owe to your creditors. A consumer proposal is a popular alternative to bankruptcy as it consolidates and reduces the total amount of debt you owe, stops accumulating interest charges, stops wage garnishment, stops legal action, provides relief from collection calls and allows you to keep your assets.

At David Sklar & Associates we will help you every step of the way through the proposal process to present the best offer possible to your creditors. After your proposal is accepted by your creditors you will be asked to make monthly payments for up to 5 years, that are based on your income, expenses, assets and what you can afford to pay. The proposal is a fair solution for everyone involved. Speak to our Licensed Insolvency Trustee in Mississauga first to understand all of your options.

Personal Bankruptcy – Mississauga

We understand that most of the people we help never imagined they would find themselves in such a difficult financial crisis. Most of the people we work with tend to be hard-working, honest people who, often for reasons beyond their control, are simply not able to pay back their debts.

Before we recommend personal bankruptcy, we work closely with you to see if any other debt repayment options can be used as an alternative, like a Consumer Proposal. Only when we are satisfied that personal bankruptcy is in your best interest, do we recommend this process. Speak to our Licensed Insolvency Trustee in Mississauga first to understand all of your options.

Debt Consolidation – Mississauga

We’ve all seen the ads claiming how a debt consolidation loans can get you out of financial trouble and reduce your monthly payments. Yet, you should know there can be significant risks with this approach.

If you have missed even one payment or received a collection call, it may be too late to qualify for a bank loan. To get a debt consolidation loan from a bank, you will need a spotless credit history, steady income, equity in your home or a co-signer.

If you use the equity in your home and are unable to make the payments, you could lose your home. Frequently, people who take out debt consolidation loans don’t know about the hidden high interest fees and find themselves in even more debt than before.
