Partner Capital/Equity Loans
We understand that partners may need additional capital to invest in the firm, support buy-ins, or fund strategic growth initiatives. That’s why we help law practices access tailored partner capital and equity loan solutions, giving your firm flexibility while maintaining financial stability.
Tailored Partner Capital & Equity Loan Solutions
Let’s Talk
We work with lenders who understand the legal sector and can provide funding for:
-
Partner buy-ins – provide the capital needed for new partners joining the firm.
-
Internal growth contributions – enable partners to invest in expansion or strategic initiatives.
-
Equity top-ups – support partners in increasing their capital stake without straining the firm’s cashflow.
-
Strategic development projects – fund growth initiatives or acquisitions that require partner investment.
These loans give your firm the flexibility to manage partner contributions efficiently, while maintaining financial stability and supporting long-term growth.
Are you ready to improve your financial stability?
With continued pressures on business cashflow, many in the legal sector predict a significant failure rate in legal practices. This predication has unnerved many in the sector - not least insurers and lenders - which has made it more difficult for firms to secure Professional Indemnity Insurance cover and the means to pay for it.
With insurers and lenders likely to tighten acceptance criteria, it has never been more essential to find ways to effectively evidence your firm’s approach to financial management. Doing so will not only offer third parties (and your management team) a better understanding of your firm's approach to finance; it can also help you to improve your processes and procedures in order to ensure long-term financial stability.
It takes only 5 minutes to complete, but can offer a set of essential insights that could change how your firm manages its finances. You’ll be presented with a series of yes/no questions, and won’t be asked to provide any sensitive financial information. Our model will then clearly outline what is going well for your firm, and identify areas for improvement.
