Types of Debt Covered by Bankruptcy
We understand that when you file for bankruptcy, you want to know if all debts will be gone so you have a clean slate, and if not, what debts you will need to pay on your own. If you understand the bankruptcy process, you will know what debts will be discharged by bankruptcy and feel more comfortable with bankruptcy as a solution.
"I knew you were going to look after me"
I wanted to let you know that when I first realised that bankruptcy was going to be my cause of action and not understanding bankruptcy as it’s a very scary and confronting for anybody.
When my friend gave me your number and I spoke to you the first time, i knew you were going to look after me by the way you come across on the phone Slade.
You explained everything to me in detail and was very understanding of my situation. You always put me at ease after our phone call and I never felt guilty about my decisions. So thank you for helping me with this huge transition in my life.
Thank you for your professionalism and if any of my friends in the same situation I will be recommending them to talk to you.

"You made me feel so genuinely cared for"
Hi Slade, I made contact with you as I thought my world was falling apart. I thought that the process of declaring bankruptcy was going to be humiliating and degrading, however, it was the exact opposite.
Slade, you made me feel so genuinely cared for and kept reinforcing the fact that this can be the start of a new and exciting future. It took time for me to believe this could be possible but you and the amazing team that I have worked with have given me fantastic support.
I think in life we all search for something to help define who we are. Slade, you and the team have helped me to remember that I still have value and can contribute to the workforce in a positive way. In short, you have given me great hope for the future and for that I can’t thank you enough.

"High level of service"
Dear Slade, After speaking with you again today about aspects of my bankruptcy process, I found myself thinking about the many times we have spoken on the phone and email.
The very first time I was lucky enough to have my initial phone call put through to you, I got a lot of many daunting and worrying questions answered as well as explained to me. This was done clearly, concisely and in a most professional way.As always in a congenial, conversational manner. To this day the same is true.
Your high level of service and the processes you explained are falling into place along the time lines you advised and that is great,
I always hang up the phone feeling reassured.
