For UK businesses chasing unpaid invoices

Letter Before Action

A formal, correctly-scoped demand for an unpaid business invoice — statutory interest calculated, Pre-Action Protocol content included only where it applies.

Supported scope

  • A formal demand for a genuine, undisputed unpaid business invoice.
  • Automatically includes Pre-Action Protocol for Debt Claims content — a minimum 30-day deadline, prescribed forms referenced, and debt-advice signposting — only where the debtor is an individual or sole trader.
  • Calculates statutory interest and fixed compensation for a business debtor, showing the calculation used.
  • Signed by you only — never adds a debtor signature line.
  • Never threatens anything unlawful — no criminal-proceedings claims, no bailiffs without a court order, no harassment-style pressure.
