SUCCESS STORIES

From introduction to impact—specialty finance solutions that deliver

Preserving value during prebankruptcy negotiations

Attorney shaking hands with a client in an office setting.

OVERVIEW
A restructuring attorney representing a mid-market manufacturer was guiding the company through out-of-court negotiations with creditors to avoid a Chapter 11 filing.

CHALLENGE
The company needed immediate working capital to maintain operations and payroll while the legal team structured a forbearance agreement. Traditional lenders had pulled back, and time was limited.

SOLUTION
eCapital provided a $5 million asset-based lending facility secured by receivables and inventory. This funding gave the attorney’s client liquidity to meet obligations, preserve vendor relationships, and negotiate from a position of strength, ultimately avoiding bankruptcy and protecting enterprise value.

Partnering with legal counsel to stabilize a distressed client

Attorney meeting.

OVERVIEW
A law firm representing a mid-sized manufacturing client sought a financing partner to support their restructuring strategy. The client was facing severe liquidity challenges, creditor pressure, and potential covenant breaches that threatened operations.

CHALLENGE
The attorney needed to preserve business continuity while negotiating with creditors and preparing potential restructuring filings. Traditional lenders had frozen credit availability, and time-sensitive obligations such as payroll and supplier payments required immediate funding.

SOLUTION
eCapital collaborated with the attorney to structure a $15 million asset-based lending facility secured by accounts receivable and inventory. The financing provided critical liquidity to maintain operations, fund payroll, and strengthen the company’s negotiating position. The attorney successfully implemented the restructuring plan while the client remained operational and solvent, preserving enterprise value for stakeholders.

Enabling deal completion under tight closing timelines

Attorney meeting with a manufacturing

OVERVIEW
A corporate attorney advising a logistics company was managing a complex management buyout (MBO) requiring significant upfront capital. The deal had a short closing window, and the client’s bank was unable to finalize long-term financing before the deadline.

CHALLENGE
Without interim funding, the acquisition risked collapse. The attorney needed a reliable financing partner capable of closing quickly, without interfering with the bank’s longer-term financing plans or jeopardizing client confidentiality.

SOLUTION
eCapital worked closely with the attorney to deliver an $8 million bridge facility backed by the company’s receivables and equipment. Funding was completed in under two weeks, allowing the transaction to close on time. After stabilization under new ownership, the client refinanced with their primary bank — preserving the attorney’s advisory success and ensuring the client’s continued growth.

Providing liquidity during a complex commercial dispute

Attorney meeting with financial partners in an office to review financials.

OVERVIEW
An attorney representing a professional services firm in a contract dispute needed to secure temporary financing for the client while awaiting resolution. The firm’s cash flow was restricted due to withheld payments and escalating legal costs, creating operational strain.

CHALLENGE
The client needed immediate liquidity to sustain operations and meet financial obligations while the case was pending. Traditional lenders were hesitant to provide funding during active litigation, and the attorney wanted to avoid putting additional stress on the client’s balance sheet.

SOLUTION
eCapital provided a $3 million accounts receivable financing facility, unlocking working capital tied up in outstanding invoices. This financing allowed the firm to maintain payroll, fund ongoing operations, and continue legal proceedings without disruption. Once the dispute was settled, the client fully repaid the facility and retained eCapital for future growth financing, reinforcing the attorney’s role as a trusted strategic advisor.
