A demand letter is a formal written request for action — usually payment — before escalating to legal proceedings. It is professional, documented, and surprisingly effective.
Required Elements
Your details, recipient details, description of the dispute, amount owed, deadline for response (typically 14 days), and consequences of non-compliance.
Tone and Language
Be factual, not emotional. Reference invoice numbers, contract clauses, and prior communication dates. Let the facts carry the weight.
Delivery
Send as PDF via email with read receipt. Keep a copy. The demand letter becomes evidence if you later need mediation or court.
