2. If the parties are temporarily unable to pay off their debts in one lump sum, they can take the initiative to negotiate with each other to repay by installments or delay the repayment period, so as to avoid the prosecution of the other party and increase the burden on the parties themselves. The lawyer's letter dunning plays the role of informing the parties to fulfill their obligations, but it is not enforceable. At the same time, receiving a letter from a lawyer does not mean being sued.
Behind a lawyer's letter, it actually involves a series of work such as fact sorting, case analysis, claim confirmation and evidence collection. This requires lawyers to have a high professional level. Differences of opinion, even a word, may have a significant impact on the outcome of future cases.
