What it is
An unpaid invoice chased by email for three months gets ignored because nothing happens when it is. The same debt chased once by a law firm, with a legal basis, a deadline and a stated consequence, is paid remarkably often.
A litigation lawyer reviews your evidence, confirms you actually have the claim you think you have, and drafts a formal letter before action. It goes out on our letterhead, with our name attached to it.
You also get an honest read on the merits. If the claim is weak, you are told before the letter is sent rather than after the other side calls the bluff.
What you receive
- Review of your evidence and a written view on the strength of the claim
- A formal letter before action setting out the legal basis, the sum owed and a deadline
- The letter sent on LexGo letterhead, with proof of delivery
- A recommended next step if the deadline passes without payment
- Assessment of the realistic recovery amount, including interest and costs
- A 20-minute call to go through the response when it arrives
Timeline estimate

- D+0You buy the service and send your instructions. A conflict check runs automatically and your matter is opened.
- D+1A qualified lawyer is assigned, confirms scope in writing and tells you if anything is missing. The delivery date is fixed at this point.
- DeliveryThe work lands on the agreed date, with a call to walk through it. Published turnaround for this service is 2 business days, measured from complete instructions.
The clock starts when we have everything we asked for. If a document is outstanding, your lawyer tells you the same day rather than letting the deadline slide quietly.

Questions people ask before buying
What if they ignore the letter?
You get a recommended next step with a cost estimate: a follow-up letter, mediation, or issuing proceedings. Nothing further happens until you instruct it, so the 340 dollars is your total exposure at this stage.
How often does a letter actually work?
Across our debt recovery matters, most disputes close at or shortly after this stage. We will not quote you a success rate as though it were a guarantee, because the honest answer depends entirely on whether the other side can pay.
Can you send it to someone in another country?
Yes, if the governing law is one we practise. Cross-border enforcement is a different question, and your lawyer will tell you upfront whether a judgment would be worth anything where the debtor sits.
Will this damage the commercial relationship?
Possibly, and that is a decision for you rather than for us. Your lawyer will tell you if a without-prejudice letter or a proposal to mediate would achieve the same result with less breakage.
What if they respond with a counterclaim?
Send it straight to us. Reviewing a counterclaim is a new instruction, but we already hold the file so it is quoted fast and usually handled within days.
