🔹 1. Read the LOD carefully
Understand what is being claimed, the amount involved, and what the other party is asking you to do.

🔹 3. Gather your documents
Contracts, receipts, WhatsApp messages, emails, invoices and other relevant documents may be important in understanding your position.
🔹 4. Get legal advice
You may have several options — including responding to the demand, negotiating a settlement, or disputing the claim.
