Legal disbursements make up a major part of legal firm charges and can cause a significant strain on practice cash flow. Mounting costs paid out on behalf of a client, whether for goods or services provided to the client, or on the client’s behalf may restrict your growth. Financing Disbursements can help you to build on supplier relationships and provide the financial headroom to ensure you can negotiate the right settlement for the client and practice.
As a barrister, accessing funding can be challenging due to the unique nature of your income stream and many mainstream lenders find it challenging to appreciate your position and provide accessible funding quickly. When high levels of Aged Debt mount up with delays in fee income or increases in case lead time it can sometimes cause financial stress.
These events typically mean that conventional loans and overdraft facilities are difficult to find or not an ideal solution for you. We understand Barristers and work closely with them to provide a finance solution that meets their individual circumstances.
