What Happens if You Default on a Loan in an LLC?

When 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.

Legal Ramifications and Debt Repayment

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.

Protect Law Group's team of experienced attorneys understands the complexities surrounding SBA loans and stands ready to guide clients through the process of exploring and leveraging these debt relief options. Our experts are dedicated to advocating for our clients' best interests and securing the most favorable outcomes possible.

Negotiating SBA Loan Forgiveness

Despite the complexities of defaulting on an SBA loan, pursuing SBA loan forgiveness remains a viable solution. Our team excels in negotiations with creditors and the SBA, striving to achieve settlements that alleviate the financial strain on your LLC. Our expertise in commercial and banking litigation further bolsters our ability to secure favorable terms for debt restructuring.

Defaulting on an SBA loan within an LLC can pose significant challenges, but with the right legal guidance and strategic approach, navigating through this turmoil is possible. Protect Law Group's comprehensive services, spanning from financial analysis to negotiations and asset protection, are tailored to assist businesses in resolving SBA loan default issues effectively. Don't let the fear of default paralyze your business - explore the avenues of debt relief and settlement to secure a brighter financial future for your LLC.

$50,000 SBA 7A LOAN - RESPONSE TO SBA OFFICIAL 60-DAY NOTICE

$50,000 SBA 7A LOAN - RESPONSE TO SBA OFFICIAL 60-DAY NOTICE

Client received the SBA's Official 60-Day Notice for a loan that was obtained by her small business in 2001.  The SBA loan went into default in 2004 but after hearing nothing from the SBA lender or the SBA for 20 years, out of the blue, she received the SBA's collection due process notice which provided her with only one of four options: (1) repay the entire accelerated balance immediately; (2) negotiate a repayment arrangement; (3) challenge the legal enforceability of the debt with evidence; or (4) request an OHA hearing before a U.S. Administrative Law Judge.

Client hired the Firm to represent her with only 13 days left before the expiration deadline to respond to the SBA's Official 60-Day Notice.  The Firm attorneys immediately researched the SBA's Official loan database to obtain information regarding the 7(a) loan.  Thereafter, the Firm attorneys conducted legal research and asserted certain affirmative defenses challenging the legal enforceability of the debt.  A written response was timely filed to the 60-Day Notice with the SBA subsequently agreeing with the client's affirmative defenses and legal arguments.  As a result, the SBA rendered a decision immediately terminating collection of the debt against the client's alleged personal guarantee liability saving her $50,000.

$383,000 SBA 7A LOAN - NEGOTIATED RELEASE OF LIEN FOR CONSIDERATION

$383,000 SBA 7A LOAN - NEGOTIATED RELEASE OF LIEN FOR CONSIDERATION

Clients executed several trust deeds pledging seven (7) real estate properties and unconditional personal guarantees for an SBA 7(a) loan from the participating lender. The clients' small business failed and eventually defaulted on repayment of the loan exposing all collateral pledged by the clients. The SBA subsequently acquired the loan balance from the lender, including the right to liquidate  and collect all pledged collateral pursuant to the trust deed instruments.

The Firm was hired to negotiate separate release of lien proposals for all 7 real estate properties. In preparation for the work assignment, the Firm Attorneys initiated discovery  to secure records from the SBA and Treasury's Bureau of Fiscal Service. After reviewing the records and understanding the interplay between the lender and the SBA, the attorneys then prepared, submitted and negotiated the release of lien (ROL) for each of the 7 real estate properties for consideration.

After submitting the proposals, the assigned SBA Loan Specialists approved each ROL package - significantly reducing the total SBA debt claimed.

$680,000 SBA COVID-EIDL LOAN - SBA OHA LITIGATION

Small business sole proprietor obtained an SBA COVID-EIDL loan for $500,000. Client defaulted causing SBA to charge-off the loan, accelerate the balance and refer the debt to Treasury's Bureau of Fiscal Service for aggressive collection. Treasury added $180,000 in collection fees totaling $680,000+. Client tried to negotiate with Treasury but was only offered a 3-year or 10-year repayment plan. Client hired the Firm to represent before the SBA, Treasury and a Private Collection Agency.  After securing government records through discovery and reviewing them, we filed an Appeals Petition with the SBA Office of Hearings & Appeals (OHA) court challenging the SBA's referral of the debt to Treasury citing a host of purported violations. The Firm was able to negotiate a reinstatement and recall of the loan back to the SBA, participation in the Hardship Accommodation Plan, termination of Treasury's enforced collection and removal of the statutory collection fees.
