Legal loans - everything you need from one provider

Legal loans are based in Cape Town and offer a loan package that consists of legal assistance with a value-added loan find service. We will do everything in our power to get you the loan you need when you need it.

What we offer

Legal loans specialise in getting you a loan even if you have a low credit score or you are blacklisted.

Even if your loan application was declined by other online loan providers we may be able to help you get the loan you need.

Our package

The Legal loans package consists of telephonic legal assistance, assistance with legal questions and an ID theft prevention advice and what to do if your identity has been stolen.

We specialize in helping those clients that cannot get help anywhere else.

How much does it cost?

For a once off payment of R395,00, you will have access to our 2 years legal and ID Assist plan and be sent a monthly credit crunch report so that you can keep an eye on your finances. To add value for money we have added a FREE bad credit loan finding service.

How quickly can a bad credit loan be approved?

As you are defined as a higher risk client and will probably struggle to make payments the approved process can take a little bit longer to finalize.

The loan provider will need to negotiate on your behalf and this can sometimes take between 3 to 5 days.

Payment made to your bank account

Once your personal loan application has been approved the money will be paid into your bank account in the same day.

Loans up to the amount of R150 000

Our legal loan package comes with a free loan finding service that specializes in getting loans for people that have a very bad credit score and are blacklisted. We offer loans for bad credit from the value of R2, 000 to R150 000.

Easy repayment terms

We offer easy repayment terms that are noticeable. You can choose between 1 and 6-year terms depending on the loan agreement.

The risk to the lender is much higher, so this means that they charge a higher interest rate. Most lenders are registered and comply with the NCA that caps interest rates at a certain amount.

We offer a selection of different services including:

Instant loans
Student loans
Indirect loans
Microloans
Blacklisted loans
Consolidation loans
Bad credit instant loans
Long-term loans
Direct loans
Quick cash loans

Loans for people with bad credit

If you have bad credit there are still options available for you. If you need some cash in a hurry, but you don’t own your own property to put up as collateral you should consider an unsecured loan.

Because you are a higher credit risk, your interest rate will be a lot higher and the repayment terms will be very strict.

Use your car as collateral

If you own your own vehicle you could consider using it as collateral. If you take out a short-term loan with your car as collateral, you will be charged a more favourable interest rate and lower monthly instalment fees.

BAD CREDIT Loans

Can I pay back the loan?

As you already have a bad credit score you need to think very carefully about using your car as collateral because if you do not make payment on the loan, you will be at risk of losing your car!

If this is your only means of transport you will not be able to get to work and that will cause you further financial difficulty.

Options for bad credit loans

A co-signer can help someone who has bad credit obtained a loan. If you apply together with a co-signer you will have a much higher chance of being approved for a bad credit loan.

The co-signer would have to take responsibility together with you for repaying the loan. This means that if you do not pay back the loan the co-signer will be held responsible and if they don’t pay it, it will adversely affect their credit score.

Specially designed loans

There are loan providers that specifically cater for people who have bad credit. These payday loans come at a higher cost and a higher interest rate but can sometimes be a life line to those in need.

Long-term loans are usually for a much larger amount and they are secured or backed by collateral. If you list your house as collateral these loans can be repaid over 10 years.

Debt consolidation loans

These types of loans are backed by your house as collateral and are used to pay off all your existing debt so that you will only need to pay back one creditor instead each of your accounts.

We contact your individual creditors and negotiate a settlement amount or each of your accounts. We then pay them all off and grant you a debt consolidation loan for that amount. This enables you to pay off one low monthly fee and saves you on your interest rates and added late fees.
