A Sample Demand Letter for Inspectors


The following is a sample demand letter inspectors can use to try to collect unpaid invoices.  Be careful not to add too much to it. 

Follow these guidelines when customizing it for your business:

  1. Be polite and professional.  
  2. Don't make any threats that could be construed as extortion. 
  3. Don't try to add interest.  There are numerous laws about charging interest.  
  4. Don't email it during non-business hours. There are federal and state laws that prohibit attempting to collect debts in the evening and over weekends.  
  5. Keep it simple.
