Best Answer

A small claims demand letter should be written in a clear and concise way, but should not be abusive or threatening. It should start out with a recollection of the events in question. Then you should tell the other party how much money you are asking for and explain why you have a legal right to payment. Finally, put a deadline for response to the letter (usually 10 business days is fine) and encourage a peaceful settlement.

Not as a rule. If the claim was something that arose after the filing, it will depend on the nature of the claim. If the claim arose prior to filing, you must have disclosed the claim in the bankruptcy documents and the trustee may take over the claim. Consult a lawyer knowledgeable in bankruptcy.

Question isn't very clear -BUT- if you "quit claimed" your home prior to filing for bankruptcy, they might consider that you voluntarily divested yourself of any assets so that it couldn't be seized for satisfying your debt(s). Because of that move, they might be able to prevent your filing.


Can insurance companies find estimates before claim is filed?

It is not likely that an insurance company would be looking for an estimate of damage for an accident if no claim or loss notice has been filed. This is because without a claim or loss notice, then the insurer will generally not be aware that a loss has occurred. It is however common for an insured to get estimates for property damage prior to filing a claim. Minor property damage may often be at or below the insureds deductible and therefore the insured may decide not to file a minor claim based on the obtained estimates.
