Statutory Demand for Payment of a Debt

Sometimes debtor companies just don't pay unless they are forced to. For debts over the statutory threshold (as at 24 April 2020 the threshold is temporarily $20,000 but previously was $2,000) a statutory demand can often be a good way to compel a debtor to pay a creditor.
