I’ve got a NRTS from the EEOC and want to send a demand letter to the company before the notice is over if no attorney has taken my case what should I do?
My former landlord has taken $200 out of my deposit for bogus repairs and a bogus window cleaning. He did not provide me with any receipts. Should I write him a demand letter and/or take him to small claims for this? What are my chances of winning?
This is a good consideration. On one hand, there is the old saying “you get what you pay for.“ On the other hand, a higher rate does not necessarily mean better quality or better results for your particular circumstances. So what are you to do? Generally, I recommend you search for an attorney with significant experience in the legal issues relevant to your specific circumstances and who has a personality and communication style that will be a good fit for working with you. Whether you relate well with the attorney is important because you might be working with the attorney for a while. Sometimes an attorney that fulfills your criteria can be hard to find, so you go with the first attorney you are comfortable with. Other times you can compare the attorneys, and you can weigh higher rates whether the attorney with higher rates is worth the additional cost. Also, if your situation involves a lot of money, the higher risk may justify investing more funds in a higher priced attorney. By contrast, if you are looking for help with a small legal matter, it wouldn’t be worth spending a lot of money on a higher priced attorney. Hopefully these considerations help you find an attorney who is a good fit for your circumstances.

This is a great question. In short, a cease-and-desist letter is one type of demand letter. A demand letter might demand action required by law, but a cease and desist letter is limited to asking a person to stop unlawful behavior.
JACO PIENAAR If you find out there was a judgment against you without your knowledge, I recommend you speak with an attorney in your area as soon as possible. A judgment creditor can put a lien on your property, initiate a sale of your property, garnish wages, and levy your bank accounts.
