Sample Debt Collection Letter

A Debt Collection Letter is a formal statement prepared by a lender and sent to a borrower with the request to handle the unpaid debt. A document of this kind usually serves as the last warning to the debtor who may have ignored attempts of the lender to communicate with them in the past. Consider drafting this letter before commencing legal proceedings to receive the money you owed as a courtesy to the debtor who may have a good explanation for the payment default and as an opportunity to avoid legal fees.

Send the letter via certified mail to get proof of delivery.
