Ross Thomson is a Director with the Bankruptcy Advisory Centre, having joined the team in May 2020. Ross is registered with AFSA as a Bankruptcy Trustee (Registration Number 1436) as well as with ASIC as a Liquidator (Registration Number 333905).
Ross Thomson – Experience as a Bankruptcy Trustee
With over 30 years of experience, Ross commenced his journey in the fields of bankruptcy and insolvency with his first foray in 1987 in the office of the Registrar in Bankruptcy within the Attorney General’s Department. He worked on the details of applications from parties who wished to file for bankruptcy as well as auditing returns submitted by Registered Trustees to ensure that the correct taxes were being paid.
In 1989 he moved to the Official Receivers Office (now known as AFSA), assigned to the Bankruptcy Regulation Section. He was involved in conducting compliance audits on all Western Australian Trustees, both Registered and the Official Trustee (the Government office for administering bankruptcies).
With over ten years of experience with the Western Australian Public Service under his belt, he moved into private practice in 1999, gaining further experience in these fields by working with several firms over a further 10-year period. Ross gained his Liquidator’s ticket in February 2009 and a Bankruptcy Trustee ticket in July 2009. He then worked as a sole practitioner as well as a contractor with another private firm until joining the Bankruptcy Advisory Centre.
“I have always strived to provide a valued service, never looking at clients as just a number. In fact, many of my former clients still continue to ring me when they wish to discuss issues they are facing. These issues don’t always relate to the consequences of insolvency; they consult me on new issues where they simply want a reliable sounding board. I am thankful for such confidence in my abilities and it is this reassurance and competence I bring to the clients of the Bankruptcy Advisory Centre who consult me on their life’s biggest issues.”

Thank you Andrew I could not recommend you enough.

I saw Andrew for 'advice only' on possible bankruptcy due to a divorce. Left an hour later with the paperwork all done and feeling like a new person!
Andrew was extremely welcoming and made me feel so comfortable with my decision to proceed immediately.
This was the best investment I have ever made and cannot speak highly enough of Andrew. He doesn't just give excellent service his follow up afterwards is amazing. Thankyou Andrew you made my 'new' life so easy to achieve!

Andrew made me feel at ease immediately and helped me every step of the way, he happily and professionally answered any and all questions I had before, during and after the process. Thanks so much for your help Andrew!
