An attorney demand letter is a formally written document that outlines a legal claim and requests the recipient to take (or stop) a specific action—such as paying a debt, resolving a dispute, or ceasing harmful behavior—before legal action is taken. It can be used to open discussions and many times helps resolve matters without going to court.

Currently, this service is available for matters involving the State of Ohio. Examples include invoices issued from Ohio, work completed in Ohio, contracts based on Ohio law, services performed or goods delivered to Ohio, customers or clients located in Ohio, and more. Not sure? Complete the form and we will let you know.

Absolutely! Once your attorney reviews your case and drafts the letter, it will be emailed to you for review and requested edits. Your letter will never be sent until you have approved the final version. We allow up to two rounds of edits.

Our firm will send your demand letter from your attorney on firm letterhead via certified mail through the U.S. Postal Service to the address(es) provided. You will be provided with the tracking number once mailed. The recipient will be required to sign for the letter when they receive it, and you will be provided with the signature confirmation (return receipt). We also utilize proven-effective techniques to increase the likelihood of successful delivery of your letter.

Once we receive your completed intake form, your attorney will send the draft letter to you for review within 3-5 business days. Your attorney will reach out if he/she has an clarifying questions. Once you approve the letter and make payment, we will promptly mail the letter via USPS Certified Mail.

Unfortunately, there are some cases in which the debtor does not respond. While this is a frustrating situation, since we are unable to guarantee a certain response, we are unable to provide a refund in those cases. However, if you request, we are able to send the letter to one additional address for free. Any more than two addresses requires an additional fee. Further, if negotiations are requested, our firm can assist for an additional fee.

Additionally, under a separate engagement, we can provide guidance for you to file a claim in an Ohio small claims court. Alternatively, we can connect you with an attorney who can litigate your matter further.

While it is rare, once your attorney reviews your case, there are two situations in which we would be unable to proceed:

(1) No legal basis for the letter: if the facts of your case do not warrant a demand letter, we will let you know and explain the reasoning. We will also provide a full refund of your purchase.

(2) Outside expertise required: if your matter requires legal attention outside the scope of our firm, we will inform you with an explanation, including some possible options moving forward. Again, we will provide a full refund in these cases.

If you have multiple unpaid invoices relating to the same matter, we can include up to three (3) invoices in one demand letter. Any more than that will require a separate demand letter fee.

To ensure that we are able to provide you with the legal services you need, the $199 fee applies to invoices totaling $5,000 or less. For higher amounts or more complex matters, please contact us for a custom quote.

Yes, you can always draft and send a demand letter to a customer or client on your own behalf, without the use of an attorney. However, a letter from an attorney signals that you are serious and willing to take legal action if necessary, which often gets faster results. Having an attorney draft the letter also puts you in a stronger legal position to protect your rights and avoid costly mistakes that could hurt your case. A letter from our office will also always have a professional and persuasive tone.
