Financial Advice
A consultation with a Licensed Insolvency Trustee is the foundation of your debt relief plan. It helps us to understand and consider all the factors related to your debt situation so we can assist you with optimal advice and support throughout your journey to debt freedom. During our initial, no-charge financial assessment we listen without judgement. We care about finding the solution - whether it is budgeting, an informal payment plan, debt consolidation, Consumer Proposal or Bankruptcy - that best fits your needs. You are not committing to any particular course of action by having us perform a financial assessment - you are simply exploring options.
We at Charla Smith & Company care about finding the right path for you and are committed to going the extra mile because we believe in doing the right thing, and we want to see you succeed in getting relief from your debt.
A financial assessment begins with an in-depth look at your debt and all related factors such as employment situation, family circumstances, spending habits and patterns - anything that will help us clearly understand your current state.
This initial no-charge consultation will help us determine and share with you your best options for achieving debt relief. This review is undertaken with full consideration of how difficult it can be to share personal and financial details related to your debt.
We understand what a burden debt can be and are here to help put your financial worries behind you.

Frequently Asked Questions
No, you do not need to contact a credit counsellor or debt consultant to be able to meet with a Licensed Insolvency Trustee (LIT). You can contact any LIT directly and ask to set up a free consultation. It is not necessary to have a third party assist you with dealing with the LIT. LITs will work with you directly to gather information, determine your best option, and prepare the paperwork. When giving you advice on your options, an LIT will be considering your best interests. As explained in Who Does A Licensed Insolvency Trustee Work For?, an LIT does not work for your creditors despite what some may say.
For a more detailed explanation about why you do not need to contact a debt consultant, see our blog post Do I Need to Hire a Debt Consultant?
Reach out to us. You can make an inquiry directly from our website by clicking here, or you can call or text us at 1-403-899-3890. We will respond quickly, and work with you to find a good time for the meeting.
Our initial consultations typically last from 30 minutes to an hour and we can often provide recommendations during the initial meeting. Sometimes we may need to have a few conversations, depending on the availability of the information and how complicated your situation is. Where there is an urgent issue like a court action or your wages being garnished, we are able to work quickly with you to sort out a solution.
By taking the time to fully understand your situation and explain how your unique attributes and goals impact the desirability of each option, we are able to provide you value beyond what you could learn by researching options on your own.
Nothing. We offer free consultations to anyone looking to review their options for dealing with their debt. If we decide together that one of the services we provide is the right option for you, there will be payments you need to make in connection with that, but that will occur only after you have made a decision and signed the formal documents.
Our office is at 300, 1933 10 Ave SW, easily accessible from Bow Trail or Crowchild Trail, and a short walk from the Sunalta C-Train station. Alternatively, we can have the meeting by phone or video call – let us know if this is your preference, and we will provide you with a number or an internet link for the call.
If you’re not sure you need a full consultation but have a few questions, give us a call or text at 403-899-3890, or email with your questions.
