January 05, 2026
by a searcher from University of Colorado at Denver in Denver, CO, USA
I am an independent sponsor (and current agency owner) under LOI to acquire a niche Legal Technology & Marketing Agency. This is a strategic add-on to my existing platform (Juris Digital), which operates in the exact same vertical.
We are looking for $800,000 in Senior Debt (Bridge or Term) to close by Feb 27.
The Deal:
• Target: Specialized legal marketing agency + proprietary software (SaaS component).
• Financials (TTM): $1.4M Revenue | ~$430k Adj. EBITDA.
• Margins: ~86% Gross Margins | ~30% EBITDA Margins.
• Valuation: Purchase price is 2.3x TTM EBITDA ($1M Total Enterprise Value).
• Deal Structure: $800k Cash at Close / $200k Seller Note (full subordination).
Investment Thesis:
• Strategic Consolidation: I own a similar agency in this vertical. We successfully acquired and integrated a competitor (Black Fin Marketing) in###-###-#### This is the same playbook.
• Turnaround Opportunity: The target was previously doing $800k+ EBITDA but has been undermanaged recently (owner focused elsewhere). Buying at a depressed multiple (2.3x) allows us to arbitrage the value immediately by plugging their clients into our existing sales/ops engine.
• Asset Quality: Includes high-authority exact-match domain and sticky recurring revenue client base.
The Ask:
Looking for debt providers (Private Debt, Family Office, or specialized Agency Lenders) comfortable with:
1. Speed: Need to close in ~6-7 weeks (Feb 27).
2. Size: Sub-$1M check size ($800k).
3. Asset Class: Lending against recurring revenue/contracts (Asset-light).
Status:
LOI signed. Due diligence materials ready.
