About this secured loan agreement

This secured loan agreement is suitable for any company or human individual to lend to one or more people. (See below for documents for loans to companies). You could use it in a business or private loan situation. If you are the borrower, you have the opportunity to edit any point you would prefer not to include.

The purpose of the loan is not important. (But of course it is important that the purpose is specified in the loan agreement.)

This agreement allows you to use shares or other financial instruments as collateral for a secured loan. The security could be any intellectual property. In addition, we have provided for a third party guarantor. That is optional of course and may be deleted easily.

There is no limit in law on the interest that the lender charges. We have provided for a greater rate of interest if the borrower falls behind with repayments.

The agreement could be whatever you want to put in it, but we have provided a sound and comprehensive set of terms, many with options. It is supported by drafting notes so that you will know whether you can safely delete some provision. It is most unlikely that you will want to add new provisions, but if you do, it is easy. Our layout and use of plain English also make it very easy to edit by deletion.

When to use this secured loan agreement

  • The lender and the borrower may be a business or an individual
  • Suitable where a company lends to a director or employee
  • Suitable for personal loans to family and friends
  • Either or both parties may be in the Republic of Ireland or abroad
  • Flexible for loans of any size and repayment terms of any complexity

Great Service
11 October 2024
After much research I decided Net Lawman appeared to match my requirements better than any other option. The reviews were positive and there wasn't too much upsell or anyhidden agendas where you are trapped into paying more.
The document was suitable for my region (Tasmania) and covered all necessary aspects for the loan document. I have no hesitation in recommending these guys, you may get a better document than you would if attending a local lawyer and paying 10 times as much. These guys offer all the support you need.

Very Flexible
11 July 2016
The document is very flexible in terms of content & its application to a very broad range of possible loan agreements. The use of 'plain English' was very welcomed.
I would definitely use it again.
