What is a direct claim letter and how to write one?

When someone has to provide you something, you have the right to claim it and that is what claim letters are all about: requesting for what are entitled to, which could be money, vacation, reimbursement, etc…

How to write a convincing claim letter?

  • Identify yourself

  • List your rights. Reference polices, contracts, or laws if necessary.

  • Make a demand or a claim.

  • Give a deadline if necessary.
