So you haven’t received payment from a customer, and despite sending an invoice and late payment reminders, nothing has happened. At this point, taking legal action in court will often be a lose-lose option for both parties.
Settling your dispute may be as simple as writing a “Demand for Payment” letter.
In as many as 30% of cases, a short, clear letter demanding payment may be all that is necessary to ensure you are paid for services rendered or goods provided.
Why a Demand Letter?
Many people who refuse to pay you expect you won’t taking any action. Their perception may change after they receive a demand letter indicating that you plan to take legal action or refer the account to a collections agency.
