I\u2019m assumed to be a lawyer.  I\u2019m not.  Actually there are very few bankruptcy trustees who also have law degrees.  And in fact, you can\u2019t practice both at the same time.  A trustee is essentially an administrator.  We administer a process whether it be bankruptcy or consumer proposals but we take it from the beginning to the end.  And our job is to make things happen.  A bankruptcy lawyer on the other hand is there to bring the weight of his expertise and his overall knowledge of law and especially bankruptcy law to people for their benefit as a personal advisor so to speak.  Whether he is advising a trustee or he is advising the person who is bankrupt or who is doing a proposal, or a creditor or anybody else involved in the process, the lawyer is there to provide people with the kind of legal protection that they need. \n\nRichard Killen & Associates \nTrustee In Bankruptcy & Licensed Consumer Proposal Administrator \n2130 Lawrence Avenue, Suite 400 \nScarborough, Ontario M1R 3A6 \n1 (888) 545-5365 \nhttp:\/\/rkillen.ca\/ad \n\nVisit us on Facebook www.facebook.com\/rkillenassociates and follow us on Twitter @Killen_Trustee","thumbnailUrl":["https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/nb9Na_L3Zrc\/default.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/nb9Na_L3Zrc\/mqdefault.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/nb9Na_L3Zrc\/hqdefault.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/nb9Na_L3Zrc\/sddefault.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/nb9Na_L3Zrc\/maxresdefault.jpg"],"uploadDate":"2015-08-03T16:57:14+00:00","duration":"PT1M9S","embedUrl":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nb9Na_L3Zrc","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCVqfGDwXy-OK5RHKZGkaMUw#Organization","url":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCVqfGDwXy-OK5RHKZGkaMUw","name":"Richard Killen & Associates Ltd","description":"Since 1992 we at Richard Killen & Associates have helped thousands of people resolve their financial problems.

To be discharged means to be released. If you\u2019re discharged from the hospital, you\u2019re released from the hospital.  In bankruptcy you are looking to be discharged from your debts. You\u2019re asking the courts basically \u2013 although very few bankruptcies actually go to court \u2013 you\u2019re asking the law to get rid of your debts, even though you have a contract that says you promised to pay a certain amount of money back. So how do you do that? Well only the law can do it for you.  When you go bankrupt essentially you are asking the law to do it for you.  And it will.  As long as you follow the rules that are laid out.  And that\u2019s what the trustee explains to you.  Essentially you earn that discharge that the law is going to give you.\n\nIf you are uneasy about bankruptcy you should definitely visit a licensed insolvency trustee so that you will be given an advice about your bankruptcy problems.\n\nWe can meet with you during business hours or book after hours appointments if that is more convenient.\n\nContact us for a fresh start 1 (888) 545-5365\nLive your life free of financial stress!\n\nFollow us on Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/killen_trustee\/\nFollow us on Twitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/Killen_Trustee\nFollow us on Facebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/rkillenassociates\nFollow us on Linkedin: https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/richard-killen-&-associates\/\nConnect on Linkedin: https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/richard-killen-020aaaba\/\n\nRichard Killen and Associates have 10 locations across the Greater Toronto Area.\n\nOur main office is at\n\nRichard Killen & Associates\n2130 Lawrence Ave\nEast Suite 402, M1R 3A6\nTel: (416) 285-9511\nhttp:\/\/rkillen.ca","thumbnailUrl":["https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/uEXv-5AJN50\/default.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/uEXv-5AJN50\/mqdefault.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/uEXv-5AJN50\/hqdefault.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/uEXv-5AJN50\/sddefault.jpg","https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/uEXv-5AJN50\/maxresdefault.jpg"],"uploadDate":"2015-08-03T16:57:13+00:00","duration":"PT1M7S","embedUrl":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/uEXv-5AJN50","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCVqfGDwXy-OK5RHKZGkaMUw#Organization","url":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCVqfGDwXy-OK5RHKZGkaMUw","name":"Richard Killen & Associates Ltd","description":"Since 1992 we at Richard Killen & Associates have helped thousands of people resolve their financial problems.
