How it Works

1. Complete the Smart Form

You will first start by filling out our smart form.

Once that is done, the system will generate your Demand Letter and you will have the option to either send it as it is or have it reviewed by one of our lawyers.

2. Choose the Package that is Most Suitable for You

At Legalhood, we aim to make legal services affordable and are always looking to save you money. 

Before paying, you will have the option to select whether you want your Demand Letter to be reviewed by one of our lawyers. Not everyone is familiar nor comfortable with this procedure which is why some will seek the assistance of a legal professional.

Here are our packages:

AUTOMATED DEMAND LETTER (BRONZE PACKAGE) – $99
Our smart form will automatically generate the Demand Letter and add the appropriate legal and formal terms.

DEMAND LETTER WITH LEGAL REVIEW (SILVER PACKAGE) – $149
A lawyer will review your Demand Letter and provide you with their comments. You will then have the opportunity to make some changes to your letter before sending it to the other party.

DEMAND LETTER WITH LEGAL REVIEW + PHONE CALL (GOLD PACKAGE)– $199
A lawyer will review your Demand Letter and provide you with their comments. They will then contact you to schedule your phone consultation, in which you will have the opportunity to clarify some of their corrections and get answers to your legal questions regarding your case.

SHIPPING OPTIONS
– You may send your Demand Letter yourself, which is free.

However, we strongly recommend you use a shipping method that will allow you to obtain proof of delivery (i.e., Registered Mail through Canada Post).

– Legalhood may send it for you and require a signature upon delivery through Canada Post for $25+taxes/recipient, regardless of their location as long as they are in Canada. A tracking number will be provided to you.

3. Pay the Fees

Legalhood‘s services are cheaper because we use and rely on artificial intelligence to do most of the work.

The sender must pay for the transaction fee (plus taxes) to Legalhood. If there is more than one recipient, additional fees of $25/recipient will apply.

The sender is also responsible to pay the legal fees, should they choose one of our à la carte services. Refer to Step 2 for more information.

4. Sign Electronically

Once your Demand Letter is completed, you will receive an email with a link to sign it electronically. This signature is legally binding and can be done using your smartphone, tablet, or computer.

5. The Demand Letter is Sent to the Opposing Party

If you opted for the option of sending it through us, we will send your Demand Letter to the recipient(s). You should expect to receive delivery notifications (as well as a tracking number/recipient) from Canada Post. Make sure to save the email that confirms that the letter was delivered.

If you decided to send it yourself, we recommend a method that provides proof of delivery.

What exactly is a demand letter?

A demand letter, often referred to as a formal notice, is an official document that formalizes a request from one party to another, usually in the context of a contract or dispute. This formal letter is not a legal procedure but serves as a proposal for an amicable resolution. It clearly details the facts of the case, the obligations to be met, and the deadline for compliance, also known as the time limit. It is an effective demand letter designed to initiate communication between the parties involved.

Why is it important to send a formal notice before taking legal action?

Sending a formal notice before initiating legal proceedings is essential for several reasons. Firstly, it provides proof of communication between the parties, documenting the facts and demands in a clear and concise manner. This formal document can include an acknowledgment of receipt, ensuring that the addressee cannot claim ignorance of the demand.

If there is no response within a reasonable time, the demand letter lays the groundwork for possible legal action. A well-crafted letter of demand shows that all steps for an amicable resolution have been taken before resorting to the courts. This can positively influence the court’s perception of the claimant’s good faith, especially in cases involving personal injuries, property damages, hidden defects, breach of contract, or debt collection.

How much does a demand letter cost?

The cost of a formal demand letter can vary depending on the complexity of the case and the associated legal costs. At Legalhood, we provide transparent services to help you understand the costs involved in preparing a demand letter. Our services cover everything from drafting to mailing and follow-up, including proof of delivery. We tailor each letter to the specific needs of our clients, whether it’s for a claim for payment, damages, debt, or personal injury claims. We ensure that each demand letter complies with the requirements of the Ministry of Justice and current legal procedures.

Is it difficult to send a formal notice?

The process of sending a demand letter may seem daunting, but with the assistance of a lawyer, it becomes straightforward. A professionally drafted demand letter ensures that all necessary documents are in order, the denunciation is clear, and the limitation period is respected. Whether sent by a lawyer or a bailiff, it’s crucial to adhere to the legal deadlines and secure proof of receipt.

At Legalhood, we streamline this process by providing comprehensive services, including delivery by registered mail requiring the recipient’s signature or by certified e-mail. Our team is also available to respond to any formal notice received, ensuring a complete management of the litigation process. We assist in negotiation processes, including settlement negotiation processes for personal injury claims, property disputes, or disputes with insurance companies. This thorough approach helps minimize legal costs and facilitates an efficient resolution of the dispute.
