Sample Documents:  Debt Collection

Also available in PDF | MS Word

Debt collection can be tricky.   If you are a creditor, you will find the following three sample demand letters very helpful.   These letters are intended to be a starting point and should be tailored to fit your particular circumstance.   Keep in mind that some claims must be brought within a specified period of time.   You should seek the advice of an attorney to determine if you have a valid claim or if you are unable to collect the debt yourself.
