From unfair charge to resolved dispute — in three steps.
We draft the demand letter or the small-claims packet. You sign and send. Most renters finish the first step in about 10 minutes.
Answer a guided intake — who, what, how much, and when. We save as you go so you can come back later.
Demand Fighter produces a Professional and an Aggressive letter. Small Claims Fighter builds the full six-document court-prep packet.

Choose your path
Most renters start with a demand letter. If the landlord ignores it, the same letter becomes your first exhibit in small claims court.
Step 1
A professional demand letter built from your facts, ready in about 10 minutes. Two tones — Professional and Aggressive — so you can match your landlord.
Step 2
A six-document court-prep packet — case summary, damages worksheet, evidence checklist, hearing prep, filing reminders, and service instructions. About 15 minutes.
Using both? The Household Plan bundles both for $15/month.
Both tools start with a short, guided intake. Here's a side-by-side of what each asks.
How It Works
Here is the simple version of what you will do, what we will create, and when Demand Fighter or Small Claims Fighter makes the most sense.
What Both Tools Share
Lease, move-out charges, photos, messages, receipts, and anything else that supports your dispute.
We scan your files and pull in useful details like dates, names, addresses, charges, and timelines.
You review what we found, keep what is right, and correct anything that needs a human touch.
Pick a one-time purchase or the Household Plan, then keep going with the rest of the guided questions.
You fill in the parts your documents cannot tell us, like what happened, what you want back, and any missing details.
Before we create your documents, you get a final chance to make sure everything looks right.
Best when you want to ask for your money back clearly, firmly, and professionally before going to court.
You get both a Professional version and a stronger, more Aggressive version based on the same facts.
Choose the tone that fits your situation and how strongly you want to push for payment.
Your final PDF is ready right away and saved in your dashboard for later too.
If you want, we will print and mail your final letter directly to your landlord via USPS.
