The Louisiana Unsecured Promissory Note Template is a legal form that is entered into by two parties – a lender and borrower. The document serves to establish the specific terms of a loan (e.g. principal sum, interest rate, etc.). With an unsecured note, the borrower does not pledge assets as collateral (hence being “unsecured”). The template can be downloaded in the formats provided on this page (Word or .PDF).
