Practice Acquisition Loans for Law Firms

When You Need an Acquisition Loan

Whether a senior partner is retiring, a competitor's book of business is available, or you're looking to merge practices for scale, acquisition financing gives you the capital to move decisively. In legal markets, timing matters. The best acquisition opportunities don't wait for banks to complete 8-week underwriting cycles.

Common Scenarios

• Partner buyouts — a founding partner exits and you need capital to acquire their equity
• Practice acquisition — buying a complementary or competing firm's client book and cases
• Merger financing — funding the operational costs of combining two practices
• Succession planning — structured capital for a planned ownership transition

How It Works

We underwrite based on the combined financial picture: your firm's current performance plus the projected value of the acquisition. This means we can approve deals that traditional lenders won't touch — because they only look at your firm in isolation.

Repayment is structured around the merged entity's projected revenue, so the loan pays for itself as the acquisition generates returns.
