"The loan facility was of immense help, and I believe instrumental in my being able to secure a settlement that might have been far inferior if I hadn’t had access to it. I am extremely grateful to everyone involved."

"The loan that I secured with Level has been my ticket to freedom. I could not have funded the best lawyer around and got through my divorce with such a favourable outcome without the funding that I had from you guys. I am so grateful and so excited that I can settle my debt now to my Mum, clear my credit cards and move on with my life with my house in my name and a healthy chunk of change."

Strategic Liquidity Funding Testimonials
Rehousing
"My client was living in rental accommodation and was desperate to secure a suitable new home from which he could host time with his children. He found the ideal property but the funds required to secure it would not be released for several months under the terms of the financial settlement. Level stepped in and were able to provide a short-term loan quickly and at a very competitive rate. Without their assistance he would have lost the property. It is the perfect product for cases where liquidity is an issue or where – very commonly – the parties’ lives are placed on hold until the family home is sold. It is a service that I regularly recommend to clients and which satisfies a gap in the market which has been neglected to date"
Tom Duggins – Partner at Vaitilingam Kay
Negotiation strategy
"By making future value available to meet present needs, strategic liquidity funding can completely change the game. It is no longer safe for a husband to say something like “I would love you and the children to stay in the house but my share options won’t have vested in time". Level can lend to one or both parties, removing liquidity arguments and allowing parties to address housing needs / reach appropriate settlements, cutting out unnecessary litigation saving money and time."
Justin Moss – Partner at Moss Fallon LLP
Avoiding inopportune asset sales or tax inefficiencies when raising cash
"Level’s strategic liquidity funding proved invaluable for a client of mine last year. Upon divorce, he was ordered to pay his ex-wife c. £800,000 by a certain date. He had two homes – one of which was on the market, but it wasn’t selling. He wanted to avoid breaching his obligations under the court order and potential enforcement proceedings / loss of conduct of sale. As such, it looked as though his only option was to ‘fire sell’ the property at a discount. However, Level were able to provide the funding required to pay the ex-wife on time, importantly giving my client the time to achieve the best possible sale value on the property, which he ultimately did. All in all, the solution saved the client significant money and avoided potential additional litigation."
