Prepare a dispute letter of demand

Agency: Court, tribunal or dispute resolution body · AU

Prepare a clear demand letter file with facts, invoices, attempts to resolve and a professional-ready risk review before escalation.

Steps

1. Parties and dispute — A demand letter should make it clear who is involved and what happened.
2. Evidence and amount — Attach the paper trail before choosing wording.
3. Risk and review — Threats, legal rights and court strategy need professional judgement.

When to see a professional

Before sending a demand letter with legal threats, alleging fraud, claiming complex loss, naming a director personally or starting court or tribunal action — ask a lawyer or community legal service to review the file.
