SBA Lien Release Considerations
We will analyze your SBA loan problems and advise you on potential solutions such as an SBA offer in compromise for your SBA loan default.
Business owners who face financial difficulties could also face devastating effects. These effects could lead to foreclosure of their commercial property. For these business owners, this could cause damaging effects on their credit and prevent them from starting new ventures in the future. A local attorney could help them request a SBA Offer in Compromise today.
This options allows the attorney to negotiate a settlement offer. The settlement offer is considerably lower than the total loan value. This makes it easier for the business owner to settle the debt. Since this action ensures recovery of the loan, most lenders will accept the offer based on the guarantee to pay this value in full. Business owners who wish to acquire this opportunity should take action as soon as they receive the SBA demand letter.
Before a SBA loan foreclosure, the business owner should hire an attorney. The attorney helps them to calculate a fair settlement. The value could equate to up to fifty percent of the total loan value. When this request is submitted to the lender, the borrower should provide documentation of their income to prove their ability to pay. If they choose to sale their commercial property, they could provide documentation about the sale to show their ability to pay the debt.
Business owners who are facing the effects of a loan default may also have overdue taxes. When this is the case, they also face seizure through the IRS of their assets. An attorney could also help them to enter into a Tax Offset Program. This could help them to acquire a settlement for their overdue taxes and eliminate these debts altogether. It is possible for them to acquire an installment plan to pay off overdue tax payments.
Business owners who experience financial difficulties could face defaults and foreclosure. These effects could present a damaging effect on their credit and disqualify them for more government-backed loans in the future. Business owners who are facing a SBA loan default should contact an attorney today to acquire more information about their options.

Clients borrowed and personally guaranteed an SBA 7(a) loan. Clients defaulted on the SBA loan and were sued in federal district court for breach of contract. The SBA lender demanded the Client pledge several personal real estate properties as collateral to reinstate and secure the defaulted SBA loan. We were subsequently hired to intervene and aggressively defend the lawsuit. After several months of litigation, our attorneys negotiated a reinstatement of the SBA loan and a structured workout that did not involve any liens against the Client's personal real estate holdings.
Our firm successfully resolved an SBA COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) in the original amount of $150,000 for a Florida-based borrower. The loan, issued on June 4, 2020, was secured by business assets and potential personal liability through the SBA's Security Agreement.
Following the permanent closure of the business, we guided the client through the SBA’s Business Closure Review process and prepared a comprehensive collateral analysis. We negotiated directly with the SBA, obtaining a full release of the business collateral for $2,910 — satisfying the borrower’s obligations under the Security Agreement and eliminating any further enforcement risk against the pledged assets.
