Read MoreHoyes,Michalos & Associates have been nothing but a lifeline for me in my financial mess. Each and every person I have met in their company has been upfront, caring and responsible in providing what i needed to know before any decision was made to resolve my financial issues. They have taken a great weight off my shoulders. Would highly recommend them to anyone who is needing another option for their financial debt. Read Less

I didnt read any other reviews thus far, but all I have to say about this firm is that it is well run professionally. If there are any BAD reviews about this firm/establishment(s) is it false, and I can attest to that. Brett, the guy that took my case, was very prompt, HONEST, and professional. I really liked that he took the time to let me decide what I wanted to do, rather then be "pressured" to make a sale or contract to his benefit. I have been inquiring about his firm for well over a year, and still followed with me. The timing was right, and unfortunately covid 19 took its toll on me, and Brett was there to help out and give me a fresh start, while trying to minimize the damage as much as possible. I really recommend this to anyone looking to get out of debt! Yes there are some downs, but with this covid pandemic going on for at least a year or two before things are normal, take advantage and start fresh. Credit (at least for me) is not an essential right now, so clear the slate and take the new year in a positive financial way! Read Less

Read MoreI had been struggling with debt since 2017 when my Husband and I separated~ I was able to keep up until I retired and my income was substantially lower. I researched and read every article that I could find on what I could do~~ After all my research with the various companies offering to help with debt relief, I decided to speak with the people at Hoyes, Michalos in St Catharines, everything was explained to me in language that I could understand and the various options were presented at the first meeting. They are all wonderful and made me feel very comfortable instead of embarrassed. I decided to go with a Consumer Proposal and they did everything for me~~ I will be paying it for 5 years but it is only one third of what I owed, so at the end of it I will have paid my creditors something and I will then be debt free~~ I can never Thank them enough 😊 Read Less

Read MoreWe were embarrassed to start the process and Rebecca encouraged us to come and see what they could do for us and to not be embarrassed. Well, we did just that they made us feel very comfortable with the process. A matter of fact most of the work was done by them. We would encourage anyone to give these people a try, you won't regret it I guarantee it. Today being our second and final counseling session Tina was very helpful in addressing our concerns. We're confident that the finalization of our case will be as smooth as the beginning. Read Less

Edit: Its now 2021 and still feeling the ripple effect from these wastemen, a bank account that was to be closed(which was a lie) is still active to this day. Which I incurred the penalties. Make sure your documents are correct and exactly what they tell you. They wont divulge crucial information that can have a serious negative impact Read Less

They provided me with exceptional counsel and helped me to make the best choices for me going forward. For the first time in months I'm breathing easy and working towards building a better future for myself.

In 2014 after emptying one retirement fund we realized we could not manage our level of debt. Even though we are of the generation taught to take care of our responsibilities, we could not.
We contacted Hoyes, Michalos (I don't remember who recommended them).
Everyone was pleasant, helpful, knowledgeable and capable. They made us feel comfortable with no sense of recrimination and helped us efficiently. Excellent service and care.
We have finished the five year term and realized we needed to improve our credit rating. We called Hoyes, Michalos again and they were able to help again.
We are grateful for the emotional care, knowledge and expertise. I would recommend them to anyone. Read Less

Sandra was there for me every step of the way, with immediate responses to my questions and helped clarify every detail! Knowing that I could contact her at any time with any question helped my anxiety and gave me faith in the process. Today I am proud to say I am fully debt free and it feels surreal. I found the counseling sessions to be extremely informative and will carry this knowledge with me forever. Thanks to everyone on the team ! Read Less
