If you need fast cash for your business, a merchant cash advance (MCA) could seem like the answer. But beware, our business attorneys often handle cases involving small businesses sued by their MCA company.

This funding option is faster than traditional loans but comes with higher costs and specific risks. Check our our most recent article https://davisbusinesslaw.com/merchant-cash-advance-fast-funding-for-small-businesses-but-beware-the-legal-perils/ where you’ll learn how MCAs work, their upsides, and their downsides.

In our new article, we’ll explore how an Oklahoma Series LLC works, its benefits, and steps to form one: https://davisbusinesslaw.com/what-is-an-oklahoma-series-llc/
