I wish to thank Grant Thornton and their staff for the personal services rendered during my consumer proposal process.
The staff at the North Edmonton office were very helpful and knowledgeable. They made me feel so at ease, and best of all showed empathy and were non-judgemental (especially Kathleen Haase – her warm smile and kind eyes can calm any scary storm). The first time I appeared in your office, I was afraid and very nervous but your warm, caring and easygoing nature quickly assured me that I would be okay and with that my fears slowly vanished. In fact, during the entire process, I gained a greater conscious awareness and understanding about my life in general and I’m glad that I made a decision to seek help and I’m so very grateful for the GT staff!
Again, I say thank you, thank you, and may you all continue to be blessed with abundant happiness, great health and the utmost gratitude.
Warmest regards,

Going to see Kara in the Calgary office was one of the hardest things I have done. Almost in tears from feeling overwhelmed and ashamed at the position, I found myself in. Kara was so professional and made me feel okay like I was not alone in this position I created for myself. She explained a consumer proposal to me and I am so happy I can go forward with getting a solution. Now I can sleep at night. I did not feel judged, and I felt Kara was there for me to move forward.

After realizing that I can’t keep up with payments, and past mistakes, I reached out to Grant Thorton. My first appointment was with Kara Kolbenson and I left there feeling so much better. She listened, laid out my options, and I never felt any judgement. From my first appointment to signing the documents, communication with me was clear and timely. A decision like this has a huge impact and I really took my time to decide to go ahead with it. I’m glad I went with Grant Thornton. I highly recommend this team!

I am beyond thankful for Grant Thornton. I was in a very very dark place with the debt which kept piling up because of interest charges. My bank manager mentioned giving Grant Thornton a call. From that day on I believed there are truly people who care about helping people get back on their feet. Everyone I spoke with and met with from this team of specialists was beyond amazing and very very understanding of my situation. They didn’t blame me they helped me look towards my future and how to make my debt situation livable. Thank you Grant Thornton from the bottom of my heart. Your team is the BEST and I am forever thankful for each and every one of your specialists. I am living my life comfortably once again because of your company. Thank you from myself and my surrounding family members who are so so thankful as well for all you got me through

I didn’t want to admit to myself I was in trouble. I was watching my debt pile up but kept holding up that my insurance settlement from my partner’s car accident would come in soon and solve all my debt problems. Weeks turned into months and months turned into years. He couldn’t work so wasn’t able to pay the bills and I started losing sleep about how I was going to keep the power on in the house, afford gas to get to work, get the insurance paid so I could drive to work and have enough left over for groceries. It became harder and harder to make ends meet and I realized I need help. I called Grant Thornton and got friendly and helpful advice for options on how to try and fix my situation. I decided that consumer proposal was the best way to go and after I met with Rob to file, for the first night in ages, I was able to sleep. The stress was lifted and I knew I’d be ok. I am so glad I reached out for help.

If you are considering declaring bankruptcy, choosing Grant Thornton makes it as stress free as possible. If you do decide to contact Grant Thornton, ask to have Theresa Steeves as your estate manager, she is the absolute best! She is very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly! She guided me through my bankruptcy and subsequent proposal seamlessly. Any questions or concerns I had were all dealt with ASAP by phone and/or email. I highly recommend contacting Theresa Steeves to handle your bankruptcy, you will be most happy you did so!

I could not have asked for a more helpful and supportive counsellor. What I anticipated to be a stressful session was made pleasant by her understanding compassion and listening skills while we went through all the aspects of the very helpful modules that were concisely written and easy to understand. The Grant Thorton experience has been extremely helpful to me and very very supportive in every aspect along the way. All my questions and concerns were answered in a pleasant and professional manner. Everyone that I interacted with at Grant Thorton deserves all the praise that I have mentioned in this review. Thank you all.
