Book a Consultation CallWhen it comes to small business administration loans, facing the possibility of default can be a daunting prospect for any business owner. Protect Law Group understands the complexities associated with defaulting on an SBA loan within an LLC and is dedicated to assisting clients in navigating this challenging situation. Let's delve into what happens if you default on a loan in an LLC and the solutions available to you.
When an LLC defaults on an SBA loan, several key consequences may unfold:
Impact on Personal and Business Assets

One of the primary concerns when defaulting on an SBA loan in an LLC is the potential impact on both personal and business assets. SBA loans are often guaranteed by personal assets, putting them at risk in the event of a default. Protect Law Group's expertise in risk management and asset exemption protection can help mitigate these risks and safeguard your assets.

Defaulting on an SBA loan can lead to legal actions and debt repayment obligations. Our team of Federal Agency Practitioners and SBA Attorneys is well-versed in constitutional law, contract law, and federal administrative procedures, ensuring comprehensive representation in negotiations, settlements, or even in SBA Office of Hearings & Appeals proceedings.
Exploring Debt Relief Options

Defaulting on an SBA loan does not necessarily mean the end of the road. SBA debt relief options such as deferment, SBA Offer in Compromise (SBA OIC), and bankruptcy law can provide avenues for resolving the debt burden. Protect Law Group's specialized services encompass these debt relief strategies, working towards favorable resolutions for our clients.

Our firm successfully resolved an SBA COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) default in the amount of $150,000 on behalf of Illinois-based client. After the business permanently closed due to the economic impacts of the pandemic, the owners faced potential personal liability if the business collateral was not liquidated properly under the SBA Security Agreement.
We guided the client through the SBA’s Business Closure Review process, prepared a comprehensive financial submission, and negotiated directly with the SBA to release the collateral securing the loan. The borrower satisfied their collateral obligations with a payment of $2,075, resolving the SBA’s security interest.

Small business and guarantors obtained an SBA COVID-EIDL loan for $1,000,000. Clients defaulted causing SBA to charge-off the loan, accelerate the balance and refer the debt to Treasury's Bureau of Fiscal Service for collection. Treasury added nearly $500,000 in collection fees totaling $1,500,000. Clients were served with the SBA's Official 60-Day Notice and exercised the Repayment option by applying for the SBA’s Hardship Accommodation Plan. However, their application was summarily rejected by the SBA without providing any meaningful reasons. Clients hired the Firm to represent them against the SBA, Treasury and a Private Collection Agency. After securing government records through discovery, we filed an Appeals Petition with the SBA Office of Hearings & Appeals (OHA) court challenging the SBA's referral of the debt to Treasury. During litigation and before the OHA court issued a final Decision and Order, the Firm successfully negotiated a reinstatement and recall of the loan back to the SBA, a modification of the original repayment terms, termination of Treasury's enforced collection and removal of the statutory collection fees.

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.
