Receive a demand letter?
We can help you.

Occasionally, your attorney may recommend that you refrain from accepting the demand for two main reasons. Neither reason prevents you from accepting the offer. 1) Value proposition – Your attorney believes that the demand is excessive and unlikely to be granted in court. They believe they can negotiate a more favorable deal for you, at a cost lower than what it would take to engage them. 2) Long-term consequences – Your attorney believes that accepting the demand exposes you to greater risks, typically related to admitting fault or agreeing to a narrative with far-reaching implications.

Possibly. Litigation is sometimes unavoidable, but it is never assumed as inevitable. Proceeding to litigate is a deliberate decision, typically after many failed communications with the opposing party. This often stems from an inability to agree on facts or the ability to meet financial demands.

Absolutely, you can. However, it is important to note that litigation can be costly, and merely being the first to file does not grant you the option to withdraw at any time.
