Information for Clients

We can only accept applications via your solicitor.  If your solicitor’s firm is not already a Lime Finance partner then please ask them to make an enquiry. 

We offer loans to cover your legal fees.  This normally works best in situations where you reasonably expect a certain minimum financial settlement but are having difficulty paying your legal fees as the action progresses.  The majority of our cases are matrimonial (divorce), probate (disputed inheritance and title), personal injury and medical negligence.  Our loan is bridging finance until you receive a financial settlement.

We only require you to make interest payments during the term of the loan or until your case is settled.  In some cases, interest payments can be deferred and paid after a defined period or at the end of your case.

Benefits for Clients:

• Ability to select your solicitor of choice and to meet their payment terms
• Interest only loan - in some cases interest payments can be deferred
• Drawdown the loan in stages as you need it
• Loan repayment when you receive your settlement or after a defined period
• Online access to your account

Security is required in the form of a solicitor's guarantee and your undertaking to your solicitor to pay the loan balance from the proceeds of your case.
