A letter today. Leverage tomorrow.
Tell us what happened.
Who owes you, how much, and what you've got. Five minutes. Messy is fine.
An attorney reads it. Free.
A straight answer on what your case is worth. If it's weak, we'll tell you.
A partner firm sends the letter. $349.
A demand letter on law firm letterhead, stating the facts, the law, and a deadline to pay. Most litigation firms require a retainer of $5,000 or more. This is $349.
Won't pay? We escalate.
Most settle after the letter. If they don't, we find you the right lawyer to take it to court.
Most cases end with a letter. The rest, we escalate.
Leverage with a deadline.
You improved the property. The law gives you a lien on it — but lien rights die on strict deadlines. Miss one by a day and it's gone.
- Deadlines run 60–120 days in most states — from your last day of work
- Liens hit the property, so owners push to settle fast
- Lien cases go to the front of our queue
A broken promise, in writing.
They didn't pay, didn't deliver, or didn't do what the contract says. We read it and tell you where you actually stand.
- No signed contract? Emails and invoices can be enough
- Evidence and collectability fade faster than the legal clock
When it's bigger than an invoice.
A customer dodging you for months. A partner cutting you out. Fraud. That's when you want litigation muscle behind you.
- Business debts aren't bound by consumer collection rules — attorneys can push harder
- Fresh claims collect best. Old ones don't
If a business owes you, start here.
You built it. Now get paid for it.
A GC sitting on your draw. An owner fighting your change orders. Retainage that never showed up. We know the squeeze — and the deadlines you're up against.
- Unpaid draws
- Retainage disputes
- Change order fights
- Bond claims on public jobs
Hauled the load. Still waiting on the check.
Nonpayment by brokers and carriers is everywhere right now — and the folks who did the work get left holding the bag. Whoever's sitting on your money, there's a process for getting it back.
- Broker nonpayment
- Carrier nonpayment
- Double-brokered loads
- Disputed detention
The work was delivered. The payment wasn't.
You sent the polite follow-up. Then the firm one. Then nothing. A letter from a lawyer changes the conversation — now not paying you has consequences.
- Unpaid invoices
- Killed projects, no kill fee
- Unpaid scope creep
- Bad-faith terminations
Your customer turned into your debtor.
Ninety days past due isn't a cash flow problem — it's a collections problem, and it gets worse every month. Agencies take a big cut and torch the relationship. Attorney pressure works better.
- Past-due accounts
- Broken payment plans
- Disputed deliveries
- Customers who only pay when forced
When it's more than an invoice.
A partner cutting side deals. A customer who lied to your face. A competitor poaching your contracts. These need litigation judgment early — before positions harden.
- Partnership breakups
- Fraud
- Tortious interference
- Non-compete disputes
Real counsel. Real fast. Real fair.
A real attorney, not a template.
Every case gets read by a licensed attorney. Every letter and every escalation comes from a partner law firm.
$349. No retainers.
The review is free. The demand letter is $349. You see every price before you pay.
Built for deadlines.
Reviews back within one business day. Lien windows and statutes go first.
Backup for the hard cases.
When a letter isn't enough, a vetted partner firm takes it from there — with us still on it.
The short version.
The case review is free. The demand letter is $349, paid only if you decide to move forward. Anything beyond that, we quote in advance.
There isn't one. We only make money when cases move forward, so it pays for us to tell you the truth fast. We turn down cases every week.
Often. Once a lawyer shows up, ignoring you stops being free. Many disputes settle within weeks of the letter — and when they don't, we escalate.
Most clients are owed $5,000 to $500,000. Smaller, and we'll point you to small claims court. Bigger, and a partner firm comes in early.
No — the legal work is done by our partner law firms. Licensed attorneys handle your review, your demand letter, and any escalation. Trarian runs the intake, technology, and partner network behind them.
It doesn't have to. A demand letter is firm, not scorched-earth — some clients get paid and keep the customer. And some bridges deserve burning. You decide.
Yes. Messy is normal — partial payments, change orders, deals done over email. That's why a lawyer reads it. Worst case, you spend five minutes and learn where you stand.
Find out if your case is worth fighting.
Five minutes to fill out. A straight answer in one business day — even if it's "don't spend money on this."
