Debt Relief Services Offered in Ottawa (Westboro)

Ginsberg Gingras provides Westboro residents with a complete range of debt relief solutions. Each option is clearly explained so you can make informed financial decisions.

Consumer Proposal

A consumer proposal is a legal agreement with your creditors that allows you to:

  • Reduce the total amount of debt you owe
  • Combine several debts into a single monthly payment
  • Stop interest from accumulating
  • Protect your assets
  • Avoid filing for bankruptcy

Your repayment terms are based on your financial capacity.

Personal Bankruptcy

When debts can no longer be repaid, bankruptcy may provide financial relief by allowing you to:

  • Eliminate most unsecured debts
  • Immediately stop collection actions and wage garnishments
  • Begin rebuilding your financial future

A Licensed Insolvency Trustee will guide you through each step of the process.

Debt Consolidation

Debt consolidation may allow you to regroup multiple debts into a single payment that better fits your monthly budget.

Our advisors analyze your financial situation to determine whether consolidation or another solution may be more appropriate.

Negotiation with Creditors

If a direct arrangement is possible, our team may assist you in:

  • Reducing monthly payment obligations
  • Obtaining additional time to repay debts
  • Ending repeated calls from collection agencies

Voluntary Deposit

Voluntary deposit is a structured repayment program administered through the court system that protects your wages from garnishment. We review your situation to determine whether this option aligns with your financial objectives.
