Hello…

I am part of a very small business in Indiana, and we have an outstanding invoice with a company located in Kentucky. My question is what can we do before sending to a collection agency or taking legal action. This invoice is outstanding since November 2006. Monthly statements and invoices have been sent to the customer (the customer is another business) as well as the past two months I have sent collection letter just stating that there bill is more then past due and prompt attention is required.

Second I have a Home & Business lawyer program and there is a letter in the program for demand of payment… is this legal? Can I send this letter to the company to demand payment before going to collections?

Thanks
Zach
