J. Bottom & Associates Ltd. has been helping New Westminster families and small businesses navigate insolvency and debt relief for more than 25 years. They are known locally for clear, practical solutions rather than scary legal talk, and for guiding clients through bankruptcy and consumer proposals with measured confidence and straightforward pricing. If you need someone who knows BC insolvency rules inside out, this is the firm neighbours call.

They handle personal bankruptcy, consumer proposals, debt consolidation advice, and credit rebuilding plans. That includes preparing and filing consumer proposals under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, completing personal bankruptcy paperwork, liaising with trustees and creditors, and advising on exemption claims for RRSPs and household goods. They also provide insured debt counselling, budgeting workshops, and help clients obtain a copy of their credit report and a step-by-step plan to rebuild score over 12 to 24 months.

Their approach is practical and people-focused. Initial consultations are straightforward and usually take 45 to 60 minutes, during which the trustee reviews income, assets, and realistic repayment options. The team includes Licensed Insolvency Trustees and experienced administrative staff who explain fees up front, prepare all filings, and attend meetings of creditors when required. They keep appointments on time at their Columbia Street office, provide bilingual support when needed, and follow up with written action plans so clients know exactly what to expect next.

Locally owned and based in New Westminster, J. Bottom & Associates works with community agencies, legal clinics, and small business advisors to keep options realistic and humane. People choose them because they demystify the process, protect essential assets where possible, and help clients get back to stable finances within a predictable timeline.
