Demand Letter Drafter

Best for: a pre-litigation demand letter with the statutory prerequisites, a dollar demand, a deadline, and an FRE 408 caption baked in. Produces a formal demand from counsel: notice of claim, statement of facts, legal basis, specific demand, compliance deadline, and reservation of rights.

Screenshot of the Demand Letter Drafter launcher showing its document slots and input form — The Demand Letter Drafter launcher: document slots, inputs, and what you get

What you need

Slot	Required	Count	What goes in it
Correspondence / contractual reference	No	0-500	Prior emails, the underlying contract, the publication at issue, or anything else the letter should cite.

Inputs

Claim and governing law

Field	Type	Required	Notes
Matter name	Text	No	Internal file reference and DOCX file name. Not printed on the letter.
Claim type	Select	Yes	Breach of contract, payment/collection, trademark, copyright, DMCA precursor, defamation/retraction, trade secret or restrictive covenant, employment, consumer/FDCPA/FCRA, other tort. Drives the template and the statutory prerequisites: FDCPA § 1692g, UCC 2-607 notice of breach, state retraction statutes.
Governing law / state	Select	Yes	Drives retraction-statute prerequisites (California 20 days, Texas 90 days, Florida 5 days), the limitations period, and jury-waiver enforceability.
Date of incident / discovery	Date	No	Drives limitations warnings and the defamation retraction-window calculation.

Sender

Field	Type	Required	Notes
Sender name	Party name	Yes	The signer. Include “Esq.” or “Attorney for Plaintiff” if you are counsel of record.
Sender firm / company	Text	No	Drives the letterhead block.
Sender state bar admission	Text	No	Including your bar number under the signature is a professional norm and matters for unauthorized-practice exposure in multi-state demands.
Sender address	Long text	No	Letterhead and return address.

Recipient

Field	Type	Required	Notes
Recipient name	Party name	Yes	The party receiving the demand.
Recipient address	Long text	No	Use the registered agent or principal place of business for entities. Matters if proof of service is later contested.
Is the recipient represented by counsel?	Yes/No	No	ABA Rule 4.2 prohibits direct contact with a represented party once known. Yes routes the letter through counsel.
Recipient counsel name	Text	No	Triggers Rule 4.2 routing so the demand is addressed to counsel, not the party.
Recipient counsel email	Text	No	Used to cc counsel and for electronic-service follow-up.

Demand

Field	Type	Required	Notes
Factual background	Long text	Yes	Plain facts only. The drafter will not invent anything beyond this.
Damages claimed / calculation	Long text	No	A specific dollar amount or itemized damages. A demand without a number is unusable as a Rule 68 baseline.
Relief / remedy sought	Long text	Yes	The specific “or else”. Distinct from damages: this is the action you want taken, not just the amount owed.
If the dispute escalates, forum	Select	No	Court litigation, arbitration per contract, mediation first, or per the forum-selection clause. Drives the reservation-of-rights paragraph and any FAA or mediation-first carve-outs.
Compliance deadline (days)	Select	No	7, 14, 21, 30, or 60 days from receipt. Defaults to 30.
Tone	Select	No	Collaborative · firm · final warning. ABA Rule 4.4 limits scorched-earth rhetoric. Defaults to firm.

How it runs

A drafting pipeline: prepare → generate → export. Prepare gathers context from the reference documents and your answers, generate produces the letter against the claim type and governing state, and export writes the DOCX.

What you get

Artifact	Format	Contents
Demand Letter	DOCX	The full letter with statutory basis, demand, deadline, and reservation of rights.

What this will not do

Send the letter or arrange certified-mail service.
Replace counsel for the final review, attorney signature, and bar-rules sign-off.
Run an independent damages calculation or verify prejudgment-interest math.
Investigate facts beyond what you provide, such as the counterparty’s financial condition or an asset search.
Calculate or apply the statute of limitations. Verify timeliness with counsel.
