Book a Consultation CallDealing with SBA debt can be a daunting task for borrowers. One aspect that often causes confusion is the process of SBA lien release. In this blog, our team at Protect Law Group aims to demystify the SBA lien release process and provide borrowers with the information they need to navigate this crucial aspect of their SBA debt.
SBA lien release is the process by which the SBA removes their claim on a borrower's assets, such as a home or business property, that were pledged as collateral for the SBA-guaranteed loan. This step is crucial for borrowers looking to regain control over their assets, as it ensures that the SBA no longer has a legal claim on the property.
The SBA considers several factors when deciding whether to release a lien. These include the value of the property, senior liens, and the potential recovery in a forced sale. Borrowers must understand these considerations to present a compelling case for lien release.
When seeking a lien release, borrowers should approach the SBA with a well-prepared case that highlights the equity in their assets and the potential for a fair settlement. It is essential to gather documentation and evidence that supports your position and demonstrate your willingness to resolve the debt.
Engaging legal representation is crucial to facilitate smoother lien release procedures. SBA loan attorneys specialize in navigating complex debt situations, negotiating with the SBA and lenders, and protecting borrowers' interests. They possess the knowledge and experience necessary to advocate for borrowers effectively and prevent potential abuses by the SBA or lenders.
Understanding the SBA lien release process is vital for borrowers seeking business debt relief and SBA loan help. Seeking guidance from experienced SBA loan attorneys ensures borrowers have the support and expertise needed to navigate the complexities of SBA lien release successfully. Take proactive steps today to protect your assets and secure a brighter financial future by partnering with Protect Law Group.

Our Attorneys are Authorized by the Agency Practice Act to Represent Federal Debtors Nationwide before the SBA, The SBA Office of Hearings and Appeals, the Treasury Department, and the Bureau of Fiscal Service.
The client personally guaranteed an SBA 7(a) loan for $150,000. His business revenue decreased significantly causing default and an accelerated balance of $143,000. The client received the SBA's Official 60-day notice with the debt scheduled for referral to the Treasury’s Bureau of Fiscal Service for aggressive collection in less than 26 days. We were hired to represent him, respond to the SBA's Official 60-day notice, and prevent enforced collection by the Treasury and the Department of Justice. We successfully negotiated a structured workout with an extended maturity date that included a reduction of the 14% interest rate and removal of substantial collection fees (30% of the loan balance), effectively saving the client over $242,000.
Clients' 7(a) loan was referred to Treasury's Bureau of Fiscal Service for enforced collection in 2015. They not only personally guaranteed the loan, but also pledged their primary residence as additional collateral. One of the clients filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy thinking that it would discharge the SBA 7(a) lien encumbering their home. They later discovered that they were mistakenly advised. The Firm was subsequently hired to review their case and defend against a series of collection actions. Eventually, we were able to negotiate a structured workout for $180,000 directly with the SBA, saving them approximately $250,000 (by reducing the default interest rate and removing Treasury's substantial collection fees) and from possible foreclosure.
Clients personally guaranteed an SBA 504 loan balance of $337,000. The Third Party Lender had obtained a Judgment against the clients. We represented clients before the SBA and negotiated an SBA OIC that was accepted for $30,000.
