Traditional loans are often the preferred small business loan for law firms. Although they typically offer lower interest rates, longer terms, and larger loan limits, traditional loans have their share of downsides—they can take weeks or even months to be approved, and they’re usually reserved for businesses that have collateral and extremely strong credit.

So where do you turn if your law firm needs fast funding or you don’t meet the strict requirements of traditional commercial lenders?

With a simple online application, more flexible approval requirements, and shorter turnaround times, alternative lenders like Greenbox Capital® may be able to provide the right small business loan for your law firm.
