How Dom wiped $52,000 in debt and kept his motor vehicle
Dom’s story
After operating as a company and then a sole trader for four years, Dom accumulated $130,000 in debt, primarily owed to the ATO. Unable to manage the mounting tax liabilities, he closed his business and transitioned to PAYG employment. Despite the career change, the historical debt remained unmanageable. We helped Dom set up a Personal Insolvency Agreement (PIA) to consolidate his obligations into an affordable weekly repayment plan, protecting his motor vehicle and allowing him to start fresh without the stress of ATO debt.

Halving severe business debt
When Michael’s business collapsed in the wake of COVID, he was left with $133,000 in debt across the ATO, credit cards, and personal loans. After attempts to negotiate directly with creditors failed, we structured a Part X Personal Insolvency Agreement – allowing him to retain his vehicle, avoid bankruptcy, and settle his debt at just 50 cents in the dollar.
Wiping extreme tax debt
When Kelly’s sole trader tiling business left her with nearly $350,000 in ATO tax debt, losing her home, vehicles, and livelihood felt inevitable. Standard options weren’t viable, and bankruptcy would have ended her business entirely. We structured a Personal Insolvency Agreement, wiping 60% of her debt into a single affordable weekly payment – letting her keep her property, her vehicles, and her business.

I recieved amazing help from Sharon. She helped me combine all my debt and work out a repayment that worked best for me. As a stay at home mother of 2, struggling to find work while studying, this has been a massive relief off my shoulders
Had the best experience with Jordyn, she has been so helpful and so easy to deal with. She really made something that seemed so hard feel so easy. 10/10 recommend
I am extremely satisfied with the service Kylie provided. When I first came to you, I was struggling feeling frustrated, depressed and carrying so much stress. There were times during this past month that I felt like giving up, going through so much left me with little energy or drive to keep gathering documents and moving forward. But I am so deeply grateful Kylie was there every step of the way. She patiently guided me, walked me through every part of the process, and gave me 100% support exactly when I needed it most. Thanks to her care and dedication, I was finally able to get everything sorted and signed off today. I truly recommend this service to anyone needing help. Thank you so much, Kylie Bennison keep up the amazing work! Honestly, you deserve a gold medal for the difference you’ve made. I appreciate you more than words can say 🙏🏽✨
