Our verdict

Best for
People who want advice on which route to take before committing to a trustee
Not for
Anyone who wants a single provider to both advise and file, since 4 Pillars is not itself a trustee

What we like

  • Independent of any single trustee, so the advice is not tied to one filing route
  • Free initial consultation
  • Offices across most provinces

Where it could improve

  • Not a licensed insolvency trustee, so a proposal or bankruptcy is filed by a third party
  • Fees for the consulting service are separate from trustee fees, which is worth clarifying up front

Good to know: 4 Pillars is not a Licensed Insolvency Trustee — it advises and advocates for you, and any consumer proposal is still filed through a trustee, whose fee is separate from the fee 4 Pillars charges. Founded in 2002, it has 51 offices across Canada and the first consultation is free.
