# SMB Law Group 2026 LOI Template

A free letter of intent for smaller deals.

Two free letter-of-intent templates for lower-middle-market acquisitions, one for an asset purchase and one for an equity purchase, published on the firm's own download page and designed to kill bad deals early by putting the terms that decide a deal in the letter rather than in the purchase agreement.

- Category: Legal
- Pricing model: Free
- Where it fits: Source & Screen Deals
- Website: https://smblaw.group/download

## At a Glance

Grab it: a battle-tested starting [LOI](https://searchspheresource.com/glossary/loi) beats a blank page; have your own counsel tune it before sending.

## What It Costs

Free, on the firm's own site behind a short form. The firm publishes $0.8B or more of deals closed since 2022 and 500 or more entrepreneurs backed; an older 500 transactions and $1.6B figure attached to the template no longer appears on any page of the site.

## Best For

[Searchers](https://searchspheresource.com/glossary/searcher) writing their first LOIs who want battle-tested starting language instead of a blank page

## Pros and Cons

- Pro: Grounded in real transaction outcomes rather than generic legal boilerplate
- Pro: Current: rebuilt for 2026 market conditions
- Pro: Free, from a firm that closes SMB deals daily
- Con: Reflects one firm's drafting style and buyer-lean; counterparties may push back on terms
- Con: A template is not advice: it still needs your lawyer's review for your deal and state
- Con: Hosted behind Searchfunder, which gates content behind registration

## What Searchers Say

Released and discussed on Searchfunder (2026). The firm's previous LOI templates circulated widely in the community.
