Alabama Merchant Cash Advance (MCA) Laws
Merchant cash advances (MCAs) can provide fast access to capital for small businesses. However, predatory lenders often exploit desperate business owners with deceptive tactics and usurious rates exceeding 100% APR.In Alabama, there are currently no laws regulating merchant cash advances at the state level. The lack of guardrails has led to rampant abuse, as rogue MCA companies operate with impunity. Tactics like daily repayment requirements structured to never reduce principal have trapped many Alabama businesses in endless cycles of debt.
Challenges for Alabama Business Owners
- No limits on rates and fees
- Misleading statements about costs
- Personal guarantee requirements
- Daily repayment structures
- Confessions of judgement
- Threats of litigation
The combination of easy capital and lack of regulation has created a breeding ground for predatory lending in Alabama. Unethical MCA companies are flourishing by exploiting small business owners desperate for working capital loans and cash infusions.
Alabama MCA Defense Strategies
If your Alabama business is struggling under the weight of a predatory merchant cash advance, help is available. Our team can analyze your situation to identify potential defenses and claims against unscrupulous lenders.
Unconscionability
Alabama common law provides remedies when contract terms are grossly unfair or oppressive due to unequal bargaining power. MCA agreements often contain one-sided provisions like high fees, personal guarantees, and daily repayments that may be deemed unconscionable.Unconscionability claims require assessing factors like:
- Sophistication of parties
- Alternative financing options
- Misrepresentations or pressure to sign
- Overall fairness of agreement
If unconscionability is established, courts can refuse to enforce the agreement or limit it to reasonable terms.
Fraud and Misrepresentation
Predatory MCA companies frequently mislead borrowers on costs, repayment terms, and other key factors. Under Alabama law, fraud can provide grounds to invalidate contracts, recover damages, or receive other remedies.Common fraudulent tactics include:
- Inflating income, assets or credit scores
- Hiding true costs of capital
- Falsely claiming daily payments will pay off balance
- Forging signatures or identities
RICO Violations
The federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act provides treble damages and attorneys fees for victims of criminal enterprises. RICO claims could apply to MCA companies that engage in systematic fraud through the mail, wires, or interstate facilities.Potential racketeering activity includes:
- Mail/wire fraud
- Extortion
- Financial statement fraud
- Forgery
Our legal team can evaluate if civil RICO violations might bolster Alabama business owners’ claims against predatory MCA companies.
