RECORDING

Rising insolvency rates, shifting filing patterns, and new case law are reshaping the insolvency practice in New Brunswick. This session will ground participants in the most current data and practical implications, with a focus on receiverships and consumer matters.

Highlights include:

•    Recent trends in Court Appointed Receiverships.
•    The latest statistics: NB insolvencies up nearly 10% in 2025—what’s driving the increase.
•    Why consumer proposals now account for almost 80% of filings—and how to guide clients in choosing the right path.
•    Supreme Court’s student loan discharge ruling in Piekut—what it means for debtors and practitioners.
•    Key ethical considerations—conflict checks, informed consent, and working with vulnerable clients.

Ideal for both seasoned insolvency practitioners and generalists seeing more financially distressed clients.
