Specialist funding

Funding for Barristers and Solicitors

Funding shaped around the way legal practices work—from a substantial annual cost to a change in ownership or a new growth plan.

The right conversation first

Built around the needs of your practice.

Legal professionals often need a funding partner who understands that a profitable practice can still have cash tied up in work in progress, tax liabilities or an annual insurance premium. We take a practical view of the opportunity and look for a funding route that fits your practice.

Where funding can help

  • Professional indemnity premiums and other annual costs
  • VAT, self-assessment and historic liabilities
  • Partner buy-ins, buy-outs and succession planning
  • Premises, technology and business development

What we can do

Funding options with a practical purpose.

01

PI and tax funding

Spread a significant annual professional indemnity or tax liability over a manageable profile, helping preserve working capital.

02

Practice transactions

Finance for partner changes, acquisitions and practice buy-outs, structured around the commercial plan and affordability.

03

Investment in the practice

Funding for premises, technology, recruitment and business development where the next stage needs capital behind it.

How it works

Straightforward from the outset.

  1. 01

    Tell us the objective

    A confidential conversation about the practice, the requirement and the timing.

  2. 02

    We consider the options

    We use our experience and funder relationships to identify a suitable route.

  3. 03

    Move forward with clarity

    We keep the process focused and explain what is needed at each stage.

Typical conversations

  • A law firm seeking to smooth a large PI premium
  • A barrister arranging finance against a self-assessment liability
  • Partners planning a staged buy-out of a retiring colleague

Discuss your requirements

A focused conversation is the best place to start.
