Who Are We?Cameron-Okolita Inc. is a federally licensed Bankruptcy Trustee and Insolvency Specialist, serving Alberta and representing one of Western Canada’s largest independent bankruptcy and insolvency and firms. It is a member of the Canadian Association of Insolvency and Restructuring Professionals (CAIRP), which provides educational and training programs for all Trustees, with its members subject to strict professional codes of conduct and reporting responsibilities.
At Cameron-Okolita, we enjoy what we do and turning people’s frowns into smiles is our first priority.
We understand that people who are feeling or experiencing financial pressures are unsure about their situation or exactly how they can move forward. With this in mind, we will help you explore your options and provide solutions tailored to your personal situation.
At Cameron-Okolita Inc., we pride ourselves on “Exceptional Service” and we offer our services not just in the major centres, but in many locations throughout Alberta. Although Cameron-Okolita Inc. has offices in most major cities in Alberta, we travel to more locations in Alberta than any other Bankruptcy Trustee. We may not have an office in your particular town, but our Trustees travel between our offices and, in most cases, we can setup an appointment for you to meet us in a town or centre near you. See our locations page and click on the town or city nearest you, or scroll to the bottom of this page and choose from the list.
Helping people solve their debt problems is our primary focus, with personal service in a relaxed environment, one on one consultations, and our services tailored to fit your situation.
When you meet with us, you will find that we don’t wear suits, and we guarantee that you won’t find us stuffy or passing judgment on you.
We are also certain that you will find us to be both responsive and respectful, and that we take the time to walk you through your options and explain exactly what you need to do.
You may have found us through the Internet, searching ‘Bankruptcy’ or by previously referencing a phone book or some other directory, but we are proud to say that a significant percentage of the people that we have helped over the years have been referred to us by friends, family, co-workers, or even the neighbours of our former clients.
We like what we do, and making your problems go away is a big part of that.
So please don’t hesitate to call or contact us using our direct dial phone numbers for each of the towns listed on our Locations Page, or by using our Contact Us form, where we can get back to you according to your preferred method of contact.
Cameron-Okolita Inc. and the Bankruptcy Trustees in our firm, are licensed and approved by the Government of Canada to administer bankruptcies and consumer proposals under the provisions of the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act. When considering your options, it is IMPORTANT to note that Bankruptcy Trustees are the ONLY parties who are able to provide you with immediate legal protection from your creditors.
Our Bankruptcy Trustees are members in good standing with the Canadian Association of Insolvency Restructuring Professionals (CAIRP), who are responsible for Trustee Education and Training, and they are members of other professional bodies, such as the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants and Certified General Accountants.
When choosing a Debt Settlement Professional, it is IMPERATIVE that you choose a Federally Licensed Trustee, with the proper qualifications. The Trustee’s License is your guarantee that people are properly trained and experienced.
There are many unlicensed “debt resolution specialists” advertising on TV and elsewhere, who represent that they can solve your debt problems for you, when it is more likely that they can’t. They say you have been APPROVED for a debt management program, as if your creditors have provided some prior approval. In most cases, they haven’t even contacted your creditors, and the only qualification for approval is an assessment by them that you have money and an ability to pay them something.
In actual fact, very few people benefit from programs such as these, and we regularly see clients who have paid hundreds, if not thousands of dollars, to these firms, and have nothing to show for it, and find themselves even further behind.
We want to make sure that you are not a casualty of one of these programs and we encourage you to talk to a Licensed Trustee before you send money to anyone.
If it happens that you would like us to handle these matters for you, you can rest assured that we will be working hard on your behalf to get a Consumer Proposal and manageable payment program in place, which makes sense and takes into account your personal situation.
