Hire a Lawyer for Demand Letter
If you are reading this webpage, you are probably dealing with a challenging situation.
Someone owes you money, a neighbor is causing trouble, or someone is harassing you.
You realize that it is time to hire a lawyer for assistance with an APPROPRIATE demand letter.
What is a Demand Letter?
A demand letter requests something like money or property. A “cease and desist letter” asks someone to stop certain actions. A lawyer can help you send either type of letter. This document, sent by a lawyer includes a brief statement of your grievances and a demand, usually for payment or a specific action by a certain time.

They might finally realize how important the matter is and make things right before they escalate.
The Process of Hiring a Lawyer
Hiring a lawyer to send a letter can be tricky. It can be challenging to find a lawyer willing to take on such a small project for a new client. Finding a lawyer within your budget can also feel impossible. Many law firms ask for a sizeable upfront retainer and bill hourly. Finding a lawyer to handle a letter at a reasonable price is not easy. In the end, hiring the wrong lawyer to send a simple letter can cost much more than you have to spend.

Can I Send a Letter Without an Attorney?
Of course, anyone can send a demand letter (or a cease and desist letter) on their own without a lawyer’s help, but that is typically a bad idea. At minimum, have the lawyer draft the letter for you so it is an appropriate letter. You have probably seen numerous sites online that offer do-it-yourself templates for demand letters and cease and desist letters. While you can fill out these templates and send the letter yourself, ask yourself: will the recipient be moved by a letter you send on your own? A demand letter can be so effective because it comes directly from a lawyer on their letterhead. It demonstrates that you mean business. Sending a letter yourself can just be another futile attempt on top of the emails, calls, and texts you have already sent. Additionally, lawyers know how to write an effective letter without falling into traps that might hurt you later. Most people do not have the experience or knowledge to know what to say in a demand letter. A poorly written or inadequate demand letter can backfire and put you in a worse situation later.
The Importance of a Lawyer Letter
With all the news about high-profile court cases, you may think you must go straight to court to get results. Court can be expensive, however. Many times, the best first step is to compose a well-written demand letter. A demand letter is a document you give to the person or entity you think owes you money. In it, you explain why you are entitled to the payment and demand it. You’d be surprised how often a simple demand letter can work without going to court. The simple reason you need a demand letter is to let the other side know you are serious about your desire for payment. Many times, the person who owes you money thinks you won’t pursue payment from them. Their feelings and thoughts may change after receiving a formal demand letter. The demand letter may save you from having to file formal legal action against the person you believe owes you money. Instead of suing them, the demand letter allows you to begin a negotiation process or set up a payment plan. It also shows the court that you made a good-faith attempt to resolve the issue before filing any lawsuit.

Below is a testimonial (posted to YELP.com) about the outcome of a demand letter:
“I had a merchant dispute with a travel agency that i booked a vacation with. After I paid the trip in full the company changed the dates and refused to refund me my money. I put in a dispute with my credit card company and unfortunately, I lost the dispute. The credit card company said that because i agreed to a nonrefundable trip, I could not get my money back. I knew that this was illegal business practices as the merchant broke the contract then refused to refund me. I contacted Ronald Cook law firm for help. His assistant advised me to send him an email with all details of the case. I sent the email as instructed by his assistant before I spoke to Mr Cook. His office scheduled a call to have a conversation with Mr Cook. I thought that we were going to go over the details of the case based on my email. Before we even talked Mr cook had drafted me a Demand Letter for Refund with all the details from my email. We then spoke on the phone about the letter, and he sent and told me what to do. He said to send the letter to the merchant and the credit card company. The one thing that stood out to me was when he told me “DONT GIVE UP, you have to FIGHT”. He gave me confidence I needed and felt he had my back. We only talked on the phone for maybe 30 mins and I left the phone call feeling so good about having the tools to get me results. I followed Mr Cooks instructions and waited. Within 15 days the credit card company re-investigated the dispute and they refunded me all the money. Without that Demand Letter that he drafted for me I would not have had the success in getting my funds back. I can’t thank Mr. Cook enough for being so efficient and getting me the results I needed without dragging the situation out. Just be patient, listen and you will Win. He will be my go to now if i ever need legal intervention for anything in the future. Thank so much Mr Cook.”
