Generally, there are at least seven (7) legal sources to consider reviewing in connection with trying to settle SBA debt, resolve SBA loan default or defend against a DOT collection matter. The seven (7) sources that we believe are essential for research into these important issues are:
When locating certain research sources to settle SBA debt case or defend against a DOT collection matter, we often break our initial research into two (2) parts:
Legal Research Sources Internal to the SBA:
Legal Research Sources External to the SBA:
Hence, there are several branches of legal resources and authorities which need to be researched and reviewed when dealing with any SBA loan default, SBA OIC or DOT debt collection matter. To say that it is okay to simply ignore these important resources, then any SBA or DOT debtor told to do so, has been advised by the non-attorney salesperson who simply does not know what “he” is talking about, and in all reality . . . is providing not only irresponsible advice, but also negligent counsel. Typical . . . I guess for a “non-attorney” who neither has a doctorate, passed a bar exam (or multiple bar examinations), practiced law for several years (but is trying to do so in an arguably unauthorized and illegal fashion) nor worked with such important federal agency issues. Generally, when you don’t possess something . . . human nature tells you to criticize what you don’t possess. It’s nothing more than a “defense mechanism” in order to deal with a severe inferiority complex

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 clients are personally guaranteed an SBA 7(a) loan. The SBA referred the debt to the Department of Treasury, which was seeking payment of $487,981 from our clients. We initially filed a Cross-Servicing Dispute, which was denied. As a result, we filed an Appeals Petition with the SBA Office of Hearings and Appeals asserting legal defenses and supporting evidence uncovered during the discovery and investigation phase of our services. Ultimately, the SBA settled the debt for $25,000 - saving our clients approximately $462,981.

Our firm successfully resolved an SBA 7(a) loan default in the amount of $140,000 on behalf of a husband-and-wife guarantor pair. The business had closed following a prolonged decline in revenue, leaving the borrowers personally liable for the remaining balance.
After conducting a comprehensive financial analysis and preparing a detailed SBA Offer in Compromise (SBA OIC) package, we negotiated directly with the SBA and the lender to achieve a settlement for $70,000 — just 50% of the outstanding balance. This settlement released the borrowers from further personal liability and allowed them to move forward without the threat of enforced collection.

Our firm successfully negotiated an SBA offer in compromise (SBA OIC), settling a $974,535.93 SBA loan balance for just $18,000. The offerors, personal guarantors on an SBA 7(a) loan, originally obtained financing to purchase a commercial building in Lancaster, California.
The borrower filed for bankruptcy, and the third-party lender (TPL) foreclosed on the property. Despite the loan default, the SBA pursued the offerors for repayment. Given their limited income, lack of significant assets, and approaching retirement, we presented a strong case demonstrating their financial hardship.
Through strategic negotiations, we secured a favorable SBA settlement, reducing the nearly $1 million debt to a fraction of the amount owed. This outcome allowed the offerors to resolve their liability without prolonged financial strain.
