Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. Dear [Former Client], I hope this letter finds you well. I am reaching out to inform you that a hearing has been scheduled regarding your outstanding attorney's fees. We understand that life circumstances change and financial situations can be unpredictable. However, it is important to address any outstanding balances to ensure the integrity of our professional relationship. Utah's law requires attorneys to collect their fees for services rendered, and as such, we have no other option but to pursue collection actions if the outstanding amount is not resolved promptly. We have scheduled the hearing to provide you an opportunity to present any relevant information or circumstances that we may not be aware of regarding the unpaid fees. It is crucial that you appear at the scheduled hearing on [date] at [time] in [court name and address]. This will give you a chance to fully express your side of the story and possibly come to a resolution. We advise you to seek legal counsel before the hearing to ensure you understand your rights and options at this stage of the process. In preparation for the hearing, we recommend gathering any documentation or evidence that supports your claim or any extenuating circumstances that contributed to the outstanding fees. This may include financial statements, correspondence, or any other relevant paperwork. It is important to note that failure to appear at the hearing may result in a default judgment being entered against you. This could potentially lead to further legal actions and an increase in the overall financial burden. We understand that financial difficulties can be challenging, and we are open to discussing possible payment arrangements or alternatives to litigation. If you are unable to attend the scheduled hearing, please contact our office immediately at [phone number] to discuss your options. We hope to resolve this matter amicably and avoid any further legal disputes. However, we must emphasize the importance of addressing these outstanding fees promptly. Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to hearing from you soon. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Law Firm's Name] [Your Contact Information]
