Q. How much does it cost to send a legal notice in India?: December 13, 2019; A: Is this a personal matter or business? Are both parties US Citizens? How was the money given, and for what purpose? Is the litigation going to be handled in the USA or India? There are more questions to ask. However, generally speaking, a Demand Letter might be the first step in the process. Please contact an attorney directly to go over your situation in detail.

Thank you,
