If you are facing an SBA default, you don't necessarily need a SBA lawyer. However, with your financial future on the line, it's probably a good idea to retain one. Protect Law Group offers SBA debt resolution help for small business owners facing an SBA loan default in California. Below, we'll offer tips on how to choose the right SBA lawyer for you. Call for a free consultation today!
Experience is key when dealing with the SBA, SBA lenders, and the applicable laws. You'll also want one who is intimately familiar with the Offer in Compromise process in case you will go that route.
For small business owners facing an SBA default, money is an issue. The last thing you want is to spend every last spare dime defending all of your other dimes left. Typically, about 10% of the amount that your SBA lawyer saved you is a fair fee for their services.
While most SBA lawyers are looking to help small business owners, some will take advantage of your situation, especially if it's turned to desperation. Ensure your SBA attorney is offering you the best advice and following the law. They also should not be charging large upfront fees.
Are you comfortable with your SBA lawyer? At the end of the day, this person is potentially holding your financial future in their hands. Do you trust them? Most SBA lawyers offer free consultations. Call up a few and see what you think. Are they optimistic? Do they sound knowledgeable? Can you work with them throughout the duration of your case?
Protect Law Group offers experience and know-how when it comes to ensuring you have the most favorable outcome for your SBA case. Call for a free consultation today!

Client personally guaranteed SBA 7(a) loan balance of $58,000. The client received a notice of Intent to initiate Administrative Wage Garnishment (AWG) Proceedings. We represented the client at the hearing and successfully defeated the AWG Order based on several legal and equitable grounds.
The client personally guaranteed an SBA 7(a) loan for $150,000. His business revenue decreased significantly causing default and an accelerated balance of $143,000. The client received the SBA's Official 60-day notice with the debt scheduled for referral to the Treasury’s Bureau of Fiscal Service for aggressive collection in less than 26 days. We were hired to represent him, respond to the SBA's Official 60-day notice, and prevent enforced collection by the Treasury and the Department of Justice. We successfully negotiated a structured workout with an extended maturity date that included a reduction of the 14% interest rate and removal of substantial collection fees (30% of the loan balance), effectively saving the client over $242,000.
The client personally guaranteed an SBA 504 loan balance of $375,000. Debt had been cross-referred to the Treasury at the time we got involved with the case. We successfully had debt recalled to the SBA where we then presented an SBA OIC that was accepted for $58,000.
