We have been supplying goods for a customer who stopped paying. How to get our money?

Hi

We have been supplying goods for a customer and they have stopped paying the amount for dues for the last 5 months.

And now, they have hired a new supplier for their goods. They are not paying the amount due to us.

What can we do to get the payment?

Is there any law to recover the total amount?

We have to send them a legal notice to pay the due amount within 5 working days otherwise we will file a lawsuit to collect the amount and the compensation.

Dear,

We assume that since this is a business relationship (Supplier to consumer), then there exists a contract between both parties.

If not, we assume there are at least mail or WhatsApp transactions stating the consumer's desire to purchase the goods and your intent to supply the goods.

If so, you may first try to negotiate with the other Party by either hiring a lawyer or serving them a legal notice before initiating legal proceedings.

If the first stage fails, then you may file a civil case against the other party for breach of contractual duties or failure to pay.

Regards.

Hello,

You have all the legal rights to recover the money. As a first step, you can send them a legal notice.

You have the right to claim against them. Send them a legal notice to pay the amount, then start court action.
