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.

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.

Clients personally guaranteed an SBA 7(a) loan that was referred to the Department of Treasury for collection. Treasury claimed our clients owed over $220,000 once it added its statutory collection fees and interest. We were able to negotiate a significant reduction of the total claimed amount from $220,000 to $119,000, saving the clients over $100,000 by arguing for a waiver of the statutory 28%-30% administrative fees and costs.

Clients obtained an SBA 7(a) loan for their small business in the amount of $298,000. They pledged their primary residence and personal guarantees as direct collateral for the loan. The business failed, the lender was paid the 7(a) guaranty money and the debt was assigned to the SBA. Clients received the Official 60-Day Notice giving them a couple of options to resolve the debt balance directly with the SBA before referral to Treasury's Bureau of Fiscal Service. The risk of referral to Treasury would add nearly $95,000 to the SBA principal loan balance. With the default interest rate at 7.5%, the amount of money to pay toward interest was projected at $198,600. Clients hired the Firm with only 4 days left to respond to the 60-Day due process notice. Because the clients were not eligible for an Offer in Compromise (OIC) due to the significant equity in their home and the SBA lien encumbering it, the Firm Attorneys proposed a Structured Workout to resolve the SBA debt. After back and forth negotiations, the SBA Loan Specialist assigned to the case approved the Workout terms which prevented potential foreclosure of their home, but also saved the clients approximately $294,000 over the agreed-upon Workout term with a waiver of all contractual and statutory administrative fees, collection costs, penalties, and interest.

Our firm successfully facilitated the SBA settlement of a COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) where borrower received an SBA disaster loan of $150,000, but due to the severe economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the business was unable to recover.
Despite the borrower’s efforts to maintain operations, shutdowns and restrictions significantly reduced the customer base and revenue, making continued operations unsustainable. After a thorough business closure review, we negotiated with the SBA, securing a resolution where the borrower paid only $6,015 to release the collateral, with no further financial liability for the owner/officer.
This case demonstrates how businesses affected by the pandemic can navigate SBA loan settlements effectively. If your business is struggling with an SBA EIDL loan, we specialize in SBA Offer in Compromise (SBA OIC) solutions to help close outstanding debts while minimizing financial burden.
