Certified letters and formal demands
What is included and what is not promised
A certified demand is not a letter on headed paper: it counts because it certifies what you said and when, and because it interrupts the limitation period. What a judge decides years later depends on how it is written today.
What it includes: drafting the demand with content that works as evidence; sending with proof of receipt and certified text; delivery of the receipt and safekeeping of the copy. What it does not include: it does not include the follow-up claim if there is no answer, which is quoted as its own service.

Frequently asked questions
Is an email or a message enough?
It can help, but it is far more arguable. A certified letter proves content and date, and that is what carries weight.
What if they do not collect it?
The attempted delivery is also recorded and in many cases has effect. We explain the scope.
Does it interrupt the limitation period?
Yes, a formal demand interrupts it. That is one of the main reasons to send one.
