I was scared to contact anybody about my financial situation. I felt ashamed, hopeless and defeated. In hindsight, I wish I contacted the Grant Thornton office a long time ago. Patricia was amazing: understanding, compassionate, knowledgeable, educating, professional and helpful. Once I knew the light at the end of the tunnel wasn’t a train, I felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. Thank you Patricia, from the bottom of my heart, for giving me hope that I won’t be buried under my debt until I die.

I would like to thank Sophie Simonds of the Saint John office. She walked me through the process with ease and answered all of my questions. Thanks Sophie!

From the first phone call I was treated like a friend! Benjamin Aduba was my contact and we had many calls and virtual meetings to come up with a workable plan to get out of debt and back to being able to breathe. Nathan and the rest of the team were equally helpful in the process. They made sure I was informed and had all the info I required to move forward with the right decisions for me. Thank you to everyone!

I was overwhelmed with debt and had no idea what I was going to do. I called GT and was referred to Nyamal. She was kind, understanding and non-judgmental. Thank you very much for your help and guidance.

I can not say enough about the team I had the privilege of working with. For the first time in my 71 years, I felt fully supported. I wish the best to the team and may God bless you like I was blessed.

Well, it took me a long time to take that big first step. Once I called, I was so glad I did. Sophie S was awesome! She made me feel completely at ease and never judged me. The process is way easier then I thought and I wish I called sooner. I was embarrassed that I got myself into this situation but couldn’t handle the stress anymore. I know I will feel the weight come off my shoulders once I sign those papers on Monday. Fresh start here we come!

I had worked hard to establish myself in life, and in less than one year, I lost everything except my house. I couldn’t do anything to get myself out of where I had landed. I spoke to the people at Grant Thornton and they showed me a better way to fix my situation than a second bankruptcy. They helped me file and get through a Consumer Proposal, and they never once looked down on me, or treated me like I was a deadbeat. They understood that life can change in the blink of an eye, and they helped me get through every step of the process and complete my proposal. I have been cleared for over a year now and have fully restored my credit rating and re-established my credit. I have done this in a much better way than I used to, and I am so thankful for the Grant Thornton there to help me get back on track.

I am so happy I reached out to Grant Thornton for help with my outstanding balances. An unexpected event put me in a very tough position where I could not meet my monthly requirements with my all my creditors. Thankfully, Carla Arellano took the time to walk me through all the options I didn’t know we’re available to me. With her help, I am finally back on track with no more collections calls, or fear of having my paycheques garnished. I highly recommend Grant Thornton to anyone struggling with debt.

— Mark Maxwell, Calgary, AB

Thank you so very much Grant Thornton and Carla for making me feel so much better about my situation. I am looking forward to completing my five years so I will have a clean record and start moving forward. Again, thank you so very much.

Working with the people at Grant Thornton was a great experience. Their multi-talented staff were amazing at getting me through the rough spots and finalizing all the details to make the process as easy as possible.
