In-House Lending Options

For Qualifying Criminal Defense Clients

No one ever plans to have a run-in with the law - but it happens thousands of times a day across the country. Not surprisingly, many people staring-down these challenges do not have the finances available to hire trustworthy and effective legal counsel. Instead, they must settle for less than the best, which leaves their chances of success, and personal wellbeing, in jeopardy.

If you are in such a situation, and you live in Columbia, Maryland or the surrounding area, please know you are not out of options. SZL now has in-house lending options. If you are approved, you can retain our legal services with no money out-of-pocket upfront.

If you are need our assistance, we'd like to work with you to make that a reality. Call (410) 884-6100 and arrange a no-cost consultation with our law firm, during which we can discuss both your case, and our in-house lending program.
