I had a nagging defaulted student loan that was holding me back. There were a few smaller issues that were compounding. The lockdowns really forced me to look into building back my credit and starting fresh.Ashley at David Sklar & Associates at the Keele and Finch location was a blessing. She was thorough in her explanations and answered any concerns I had. She gave me the options and let me decide what was best. After conferring with her, I decided bankruptcy was the best option. She made the process of filing for bankruptcy easy.There's nothing to be afraid of. Stigma attached to bankruptcy but you can reset if you work hard to make it happen.I highly recommend speaking with Ashley if you have any concerns about debt solutions.

In behalf of David Sklar & Associates, Ms. Ashley Carter had been working tremendously and diligently to make people’s lives easier and stress free. Through this debt free program, my husband and I had been relieved from the headaches and worries of our financial standing before. Ashley, a soft spoken lady was very approachable and listened to our concerns. She explained to us very clearly the good things that will happen to our best interest. I believe that she is a great asset to the company and an excellent counsellor. My husband and I can’t thank you enough, Ashley, for all your help during those times when we needed it most. As of now, we are enjoying life in our seventies, though how simple it is we are happy because we have the assurance that sooner we will be debt free. Thank you so much Ashley for your kindness and for always being there for us. May God bless you more especially with good health.

We worked with Jackie. She is very professional and very caring. She is quick to respond and really cares about helping the people in front of her. I went with my uncle, who was scared of the whole process and mentally delayed. Jackie took her time with us and made him feel at ease. She carefully explained things multiple times and was very encouraging. She was a shining light in a difficult process.

I have dealt with this company before many years ago when I did my bankruptcy , and found to be very trustworthy, professional, and right at ease. No judgement, very understanding and very supportive. So of course would come to then again when this time did the debt consolidation. The staff is friendly and goes over all the details with you and answers all your questions so you know exactly what to expect and make an informative decisison. I aslo like how if I had any questions could leave a message or email the company and how promptly they answer me back. Thank you David Sklar & Associates for getting me back on the right track and living a life of debt free again. I have my freedom back thank you for all your help and support. Amen 🙏

What is a Division 1 Proposal?

A Division I Proposal enables a person or business to avoid bankruptcy and be released from their unsecured debts after they have repaid a portion of those debts and honoured all the terms of their proposal.

WHAT IS THE PROCESS?

The Division I Proposal process varies from case to case. For most businesses and some individuals, it can include:

  • Extensive audits and cash flow analysis
  • Tax liability assessment
  • Business operation assessments – including employee and client retention

After you have met with a trustee and all relevant debt, liability, asset, and income information has been reviewed in detail the trustee will go over all the options available for debt relief. If both the individual and the trustee agree that a Division I Proposal is the best choice, they will then prepare a proposal together.

The proposal will set out the portion of debt your are able to repay over a given period of time and other terms that will be followed in exchange for being released from the debts included in the proposal.

The trustee then files and submits the proposal to your creditors. Note not all debts can be included in a proposal.

Once the proposal is filed the creditors must:

  • Stop all collection efforts
  • Stop all legal actions
  • Stop charging interest

The creditors vote on whether to accept or reject the proposal. For a Division I Proposal to be accepted – more than 50% of the creditors who hold more than 66.6% of the debt must accept the proposal. The Court must also approve of the proposal before it can be put into effect.
