The Role of the Trustee

A trustee in bankruptcy is a person licensed by the Superintendant of Bankruptcy to administer proposals and bankruptcies.

The trustee represents your creditors and is an officer of the court.

However, the trustee can give you information and advice about both the proposal and bankruptcy processes and make sure your rights, as well as those of the creditors are respected.

WARNING!! The trustee represents your creditors and is an officer of the court.

You, the debtor have the right to unbiased representation.
