Bankruptcy Ontario: Call 310-PLAN to speak with one of our experts

confused about the trustee

Question: I went to a trustee in Jan/07. It is now half way through April. I have given the trustee all my financial info, signed his intake form and now he doesn’t return my inquiries.Is this normal?
Please note we have, in Feb had 3 meetings outlining what will happen, and my obligations, etc.

Answer: No, this is not normal. Typically you will have an initial meeting with the trustee to review your options. A second meeting, after you have completed your information form, is also not unusual. Normally at your third meeting you will be signing the bankruptcy paperwork.

If the trustee is not returning your calls, you do not want to deal with that trustee, since if they are not returning your calls now, it is likely that they will not be returning your calls once you file bankruptcy.

We suggest that you contact another trustee and complete the process with a trustee who will actually return your phone calls.
