I love my life now after completing my proposal. I am no longer running from creditors and I have no stress due to a managed financial lifestyle. Kathleen Haase is a wonderful counsellor with an awesome sense of humour combined with a very professional attitude. Linda Gould helped me with my initial consultation. She was reassuring and encouraging despite my situation. I really appreciated how I felt after speaking with her and knowing that there was an answer to my problems despite feeling overwhelmed initially. Without Linda, I don’t know where I would be. Thanks to the whole team.

My first visit I was in tears and Kathleen made me feel so much better. I felt dumb because I got myself into so much trouble and she encouraged me not to be so hard on myself. I am very happy with the outcome of the two sessions we had. She’s awesome. Kathleen is very easy to get along with and she has made me more aware of my financial situation and it has made me better.

I also met with Frieda and she reassured me that it was the right thing to do in my situation. She explained my options to me and did not pressure me to do anything I did not want to do.

Only 7 months ago I was overwhelmed with credit card debt, I was unable to sleep from worry and felt there was no hope. I am so glad I contacted Grant Thornton. With their help, I am now able to sleep again! I filed a consumer proposal and the process was not stressful at all! Grant Thornton was always there and helped me through every stage and explained everything thoroughly. I urge anyone who feels overwhelmed with debt to contact them. My only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner.

I had been struggling for years living paycheque to paycheque. When I lost my job, the future with all my debt looked grim. I met with Rob McLernon and he explained how I could get my life back. I am happy that I made the decision to talk with Grant Thornton.

Prior to going to Grant Thornton, I felt terrible. I was always in my overdraft because I couldn’t make it through the entire month on my pension income. Once I filed I was able to pay my bills, buy groceries and even buy new clothes.

I found everybody at Grant Thornton very helpful. I was expecting a stressful experience, but Susan Methuen made it so I didn’t feel guilty or out of place. There were people available to contact and answer my questions. The counselling sessions with Kathleen Haase were great for showing me how to get myself out of debt and being able to save money. I have told many people to go to Grant Thornton.

I was at the office feeling my senior mother deal with what is most definitely a tough situation. Kara Kolbenson was a joy to work with and was extremely respectful and put my mom at ease. I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you.

Coming to terms with my financial situation and actually acting to change it has been, to say the least, a complex and difficult process for me, as it must be for many others. My personal struggles with anxiety have made the journey both longer and personally challenging. I have had the good fortune to have Rob McLernon of Grant Thornton work with me to resolve the first step – entering bankruptcy – on my path toward financial well-being. Rob’s calm, confident, and considerate manner enabled me to take this step, to move forward, and for this, I am sincerely appreciative. Thank you, Rob.

I filled out my information on the website and the next day I was contacted by Lindsay Reeves. She set up a meeting for us to talk on the phone and she called me at the exact time she said she would on the exact day. She provided me with so much information that I felt was so extremely useful and amazing. It was like I made a new friend who was willing to help me out of a bad situation! She talked to me and explained step-by-step what would happen. She explained to me what I needed to do and how I could get the help that I needed and what my options were. She told me that she was there for me and that any questions or any concerns I had I could feel free to reach out to her at any time and that she would get back to me as quickly as possible. She really lived up to that expectation because every single time I emailed she replied quickly and efficiently that I felt like I was being looked after very well. Lindsay gave me advice that I will use forever! She is a superstar!

I had such a great experience with this company. Filing for bankruptcy is a scary process, especially for someone that’s never been through it before. Kara was extremely helpful and patient with me. She explained the entire process, laying out all of my options for me, and responded to a multitude of emails with all my questions promptly, and in a professional manner. I would highly recommend working with her, and any of the staff at Grant Thornton.
