This Is Why You're Here
Why Family Laws Come to Us Instead of Their Bank
A high-net-worth divorce case landed on your desk — $100K+ in projected fees. But the client's retainer is $15K and the case needs immediate forensic accounting work at $8K.
You hired a second associate to handle your overflow. Salary, bar dues, and office setup cost $25K before they bill a single hour. Your receivables won't cover it for 90 days.
Your office lease is up and you found a better space in a professional building. Build-out, furniture, and 3 months of rent total $45K. The location would attract higher-value clients.
Three clients stopped paying mid-case this month — $22K in outstanding retainer balances you'll never collect. You've still got 40 hours of work done that's essentially free. Rent is due in a week.
A guardian ad litem report came back and now you need a child psychologist ($6K) and a vocational expert ($4K) for a custody trial in 5 weeks. Your client is tapped out and can't replenish the retainer.
Retainers were running out mid-case and I was covering payroll from personal savings. Basecamp got me a $60K line of credit in 3 days — now I hire forensic accountants without blinking and my associates actually get paid on time.

Why Family Law Businesses Choose Basecamp
Retainers Burn Fast — We Get It
A $10K retainer disappears in weeks on a contested custody case. Banks don't understand why your receivables look thin when you're actually swamped with work. Our lenders look at case volume and deposits, not retainer balances.
Clients Who Can't Pay Mid-Case
Divorce drains both parties financially. Your client's ability to replenish a retainer can vanish overnight. You need capital that doesn't depend on one client's finances — a credit line you control.
Forensic Experts Aren't Optional
High-asset divorces need forensic CPAs, business valuators, and custody evaluators. That's $8K-$15K per expert. You can't win these cases without them, and you can't fund them from retainers alone.
Your Office Is Your Credibility
Family law clients are going through the worst time of their life. They walk into your office and judge whether you can handle it. A professional space in the right location isn't vanity — it's client conversion.

Calculate Your Real Cost →Family law attorneys burn through retainers faster than clients can replenish them. One firm in Scottsdale was self-funding $8K forensic accounting bills on every custody case. We set them up with a $60K credit line — now they take every good case that walks in the door.

Family Law Business Loan FAQs
Family Law Firm Loans & Divorce Attorney Financing — $10K to $5M+
Look — family law has a cash flow problem nobody talks about. A client puts down a $10K retainer for a contested divorce. You burn through it in three weeks on forensic accountants, custody evaluators, and court prep. Now you're working for free until the client replenishes. And half the time? They don't. You eat the cost or withdraw from the case. Neither option is good.
We fund family law firms that are tired of this cycle. A $60K credit line means you hire the forensic CPA on every high-asset case without sweating the retainer balance. Working capital in 24 hours covers payroll when three retainers run dry in the same month. One application, 70+ lenders, no hard pull. Solo practitioners to 10-attorney firms — we've seen your exact situation before.
