so i want this demand letter to look legit. should it be from a lawyer ot law firm, or can i just write it as myself to her?
You can write the demand letter yourself, and it can still be effective. However, having it issued by a lawyer or law firm can add an element of seriousness and may prompt quicker action. If you choose to write it yourself, make sure it's clear, formal, and includes all necessary details. Would you like guidance on drafting it?
yes please, could i make up a law firm or have a friend pretend to be from a law firm?
It is not advisable to make up a law firm or have a friend pretend to be from one. Misrepresenting yourself or someone else as a legal professional can have legal consequences and undermine the credibility of your demand. It's best to send the letter yourself or engage a real lawyer if you want it to carry more weight. Would you like more tips on how to strengthen your demand letter?

This letter serves as a formal demand for the immediate repayment of the outstanding balance of a personal loan made to you on January *, *. On January *, *, I lent you the sum of three thousand Canadian dollars ($*,*.* CAD) for a vacation. This agreement was made verbally, with the understanding that you would repay the loan in bi-weekly installments of three hundred Canadian dollars ($*.* CAD) on your paydays.
To date, I have only received partial payments totaling one thousand three hundred Canadian dollars ($*,*.* CAD). These payments were received on the following dates:
- February *, *: $*.*
- February *, *: $*.*
- March *, *: $*.*
- April *, *: $*.*
- April *, *: $*.* (last payment received)
This leaves an outstanding balance of one thousand seven hundred Canadian dollars ($*,*.* CAD) which is now overdue. Despite my attempts to contact you, communication has ceased, leaving this debt unresolved.
I demand immediate payment of the full outstanding balance of $*,*.* CAD. Please remit this amount within [e.g., * or *] days of the date of this letter. Payment can be made via [State your preferred payment method(s), e.g., Interac e-Transfer to your email address, certified cheque, money order].
Please be advised that if the full outstanding amount is not received within the specified timeframe, I will be compelled to pursue all available legal remedies to recover the debt, which may include, but is not limited to, filing a claim in Small Claims Court, and seeking recovery of court costs, interest, and any other damages as permitted by law.
I sincerely hope that we can resolve this matter amicably and without the need for further legal action. I await your prompt response and payment.
