Attorney Drafted Collection Letters
Demand letters can be an effective way to collect debt. Having access to an attorney can help you with debt collection matters related to your business.
Issues to Consider with Collection Letters
Debt collection letters should be well written and follow best practices. Here are several key elements you may need to consider:
- Amount Due
- Days Past Due
- Note on previous attempts to collect
- Summary of their account
- Instructions for how to reply
- Due date for payment
- Any late fees or penalties
- Your contact information
- Applicable laws, including the statute of limitations or time limit to file court action if the issue is not resolved
Demand letters can be an effective way to collect debt. However, there are issues you may need to consider. You can have more success if you have an attorney review your letter before you send it. When you join LegalShield, you can submit your documents for review and get consultation on how to address the situation. Depending on the type of business legal plan, a designated number of document reviews are included each month and year at no additional charge.

- Are you unsure about drafting a demand letter or handling the matter by yourself?
