Understanding the strategic importance and right timing for debt recovery notices
When to Send a Demand Notice
- When verbal requests fail: After repeated reminders and phone calls haven't resulted in payment despite clear payment obligations.
- When written agreement exists: Payment delayed beyond agreed timelines in contracts, invoices, or loan agreements with documented terms.
- When invoices remain unpaid: Business invoices or freelance payments overdue beyond payment terms, affecting your cash flow.
- When loans default: Personal loans to friends, family, or informal lending arrangements where repayment commitments are broken.
Why Send a Demand Notice
- Legal documentation: Creates an official record of your claim and establishes pre-litigation evidence under the Contract Act and Evidence Act.
- Psychological pressure: Formal advocate-backed notice creates immediate pressure, motivating quick settlement to avoid court proceedings and reputation damage.
- Enables negotiation: Opens the door for discussion on payment plans, settlement terms, and interest calculations before expensive court battles.
- Strengthens your case: Shows the court that you attempted amicable resolution, which reflects positively in recovery suits under Order 37 CPC.
- Faster resolution: 80% of recipients settle within 30 days through our legal notices, avoiding lengthy litigation and legal costs. cheque bounce recovery

Legal Framework for Money Recovery in India
Understanding the legal basis and applicable laws for debt recovery
Legal Basis Under Indian Law
Under the Indian Contract Act, 1872 and Civil Procedure Code, several legal remedies are available for money recovery:
Available Legal Remedies
Summary Suit (Order 37 CPC)
For debts based on written contracts, bills of exchange, or promissory notes. Faster resolution with limited defenses available to debtor.
Regular Civil Suit
For all types of debts including verbal agreements supported by evidence. More time-consuming but applicable to all scenarios.
Criminal Proceedings (Section 138 NI Act)
For dishonored cheques. Creates criminal liability with imprisonment threat, leading to faster settlements.
Arbitration (if clause exists)
If contract contains arbitration clause, disputes can be resolved through arbitration instead of courts, often faster and less expensive.
Important: The choice of legal remedy depends on your specific circumstances, nature of transaction, and available evidence. Our advocates will help identify the most appropriate legal framework and recovery strategy for your case.
What Happens After the Demand Notice?
Understanding the timeline, possible responses, and next steps in your recovery journey
Expected Timeline
Days 1-7: Notice Drafting & Dispatch
Your notice is drafted by a Bar Council advocate citing relevant legal provisions, reviewed by you for approval, and dispatched via registered post. You receive tracking details and proof of dispatch.
Days 8-15: Debtor Receives Notice
The notice reaches the debtor. They typically need 15 days to respond (as mentioned in the notice). The formal legal communication creates immediate psychological pressure.
Days 15-30: Response Period
The debtor may respond in several ways: make payment, propose payment plan, send counter-notice, or choose not to respond. Each scenario requires different next steps.
After Day 30: Next Legal Steps
Depending on response, proceed with settlement, structured payment plan, or file recovery suit under Order 37 CPC. Your lawyer guides you through the appropriate path.
Possible Responses & Next Steps
Summary Suit Path (Order 37)
Faster route (6-12 months) for documented debts. Requires written proof like contracts, promissory notes, or bills. Limited defenses available to debtor. Court can grant summary judgment if debt is clear.
Regular Civil Suit Path
