You've tried phone calls, texts, emails. 

 You've waited, patiently.
You've been polite. 

Now it's about making your position clear — properly.

Ready to take the first formal step?

Tell us the basics (takes 2 minutes) and we'll get started straight away.

What a Letter of Demand actually does

A letter of demand:

  • formally documents your position 

  • shows you are serious about escalation 

  • creates a clear legal position if the issue continues

In many cases, it's enough to prompt payment.

 

But if it doesn't, it becomes the foundation for your next step.

 

Most unpaid invoices and disputes stall because: 

  • follow-ups aren't working

  • you wait too long to formalise a payment request

  • you don't know what to say

  • or you send something too informal to be taken seriously
     

A properly structured Letter of Demand is the first formal step. There’s no guarantee of an outcome — but it ensures your next step is clear, formal, and done properly.

Debt Set Legal was built by a dispute lawyer with years of small claims experience
Designed for the everyday dispute $25,000 or less in Australia. ​

A Letter of Demand based on real legal practice

A lawyer-drafted Letter of Demand designed to:
 

  • clearly outline your claim

  • communicate it in a formal way

  • and prepare you for escalation if needed

What if they don't respond? 


Not every dispute resolves after a Letter of Demand.

If nothing happens, that doesn’t always mean you’ve done it wrong.​ It usually means the next step is needed — which is exactly why this process exists.

We’ll guide you through that if it happens.
