How long should I wait for the other party to answer my demand letter?

Dispute’s perspective is simple: it’s up to you.

We can’t advise how long to wait before deciding on your potential lawsuit. That constitutes legal advice, and we are not lawyers. We’re happy to help you generate, sign and file a small claims document at a courthouse of your choice whenever you decide you are ready.

We always recommend reaching out to your local small claims court and asking if they have any guidelines or rules on matters like this. Feel free to look up the courthouses we support. We also highlight how to look up courthouse information if you have any questions.
