Loans Legal Questions and Answers
Loans
Promissory Note
Connecticut
Key terms in promissory notes?
I am a small business owner who recently loaned money to a business associate. The loan was made via a Promissory Note, which I drafted myself. I am now looking to learn more about the key terms and conditions of the note, in order to ensure the safety of my investment. I am hoping to gain a better understanding of the legal implications of the document, and how to protect my interests.
Thomas L.
1. How much is owed. 2. Interest rate. 3. Repayment schedule. 4. Specific defaults (something specific to the borrower) 5. General defaults - failure to pay, bankruptcy.

Promissory Note
California
Is a promissory note legally binding?
I was told by my brother n sister that I would be able to borrow against my parents estate 20,000.00 to buy a trailer and car. This was my dad's wish. A trailer was bought for 13,563.95 and I was told I'd have to wait for car. I have medical issues and have to travel 45 miles either way to see my Drs so a car is very important. My brother executer and sister showed up yesterday saying they never said 20,000. and I'm only getting 15,000. They expected me to sign a promissory dated back in Nov 2020. I've always thought contracts should be signed before the fact not after. The money will be taken from my share of trust so why the note.
Rebecca S.
A promissory note is based on when the loan is made, not necessarily when the note is signed. So if the siblings actually loaned the money, regardless of when the note is signed, then a backdated note is ok. Review by an attorney is advised.
Loans
Purchase And Sale Agreement
California
Purchase and sale agreement and default?
I am in the process of purchasing a commercial property from an individual seller. We have already agreed on the terms of the purchase and signed a Purchase and Sale Agreement. Recently, I have been informed that the seller is in default of their loan agreement with their lender, which could potentially put our agreement in jeopardy. I am seeking legal counsel to understand my rights and the potential implications of the default.
Myrna L.
Potential loan default on the property may or may not impact your Purchase Agreement depending on when you plan to close escrow. First, isn’t the loan being paid off with the sales price? If so, Second, escrow company should have contacted lender requesting pay off amount. Third, lender would stop any pending default action when they know they will be paid off with the sale.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.
View Trustpilot ReviewI never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
View Trustpilot ReviewI got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
