Brainstorm Together
Other Creative Ways to
Get Paid Back
You have tried to talk to the person who owes you
money about them paying you back but you are not
making any progress. Now what? Ask them to sit down
with you and brainstorm ways that you can be paid
back the money you loaned them. As we mentioned in
the previous section, it is easier to get "buy-in" from
someone when it is their idea and a brainstorming
session may stimulate some good ideas.
Benefits of mediation:
You also want to make sure you are suing someone for
money you lent with the expectation that it would be
paid back and not over a gift. Legally if someone owes
you money, this means it was a loan from you to them
and there was a clear expectation that there was a duty
to pay the money back within a certain amount of time.
If this information is in a contract or written agreement
this will be more helpful in court, but you may be able
to provide other evidence like emails, texts, money
transfer receipts, etc.
