# Demand Letter
## Purpose
Produce a structured draft demand letter for attorney review, revision, and sending. The skill works in three stages — intake, a pre-draft risk gate, and drafting — so that strategic and privilege questions are settled before any letter text is written. It organizes the factual narrative, identifies the claimed basis for relief, articulates a specific demand, and flags every legal conclusion, damages figure, response deadline, and consequence of non-response as an item requiring attorney confirmation. The draft is not a final negotiating position and must not be sent without attorney review and approval.
## Use When
- A user asks to "draft a demand letter," "write a demand," or "send a letter before filing suit."
- Counsel wants a structured first draft before editing and sending a pre-litigation demand.
- A client has suffered a harm and counsel needs to frame and communicate a pre-suit demand.
- A breach of contract, tort claim, employment dispute, property damage, or similar matter requires a formal written demand as a precursor to litigation or negotiation.
- A statutory or contractual pre-suit notice requirement must be met (attorney must confirm applicability and form).
## Required Inputs
- The client's identity and role (the party making the demand).
- The recipient's identity and, if known, address and counsel information.
- A description of the dispute, the alleged harm, and the factual background (from documents or a client summary).
