How to Draft a Demand Letter with AI: A Step-by-Step Guide for Personal Injury Law Firms

Writing a settlement demand letter isn’t just a box to check, it’s one of the most powerful tools a personal injury attorney has for winning cases and getting the justice their clients deserve.

A well-crafted, thorough demand package tells your client’s story in a way that makes insurance carriers think twice before risking a jury trial. Done right, it’s persuasive, evidence-backed, and positioned to maximize settlement value.

Traditional demand letter drafting processes have taken days or even weeks to gather data, manually reviewing medical records, organizing exhibits, writing narratives, and making sure every detail is accurate and compelling.

But now with the right AI tools, such as AI Demand Pro, you can generate a fully formatted, attorney-caliber settlement demand package in just minutes without sacrificing quality.

A settlement demand letter is a formal communication sent to the at-fault party’s insurance company outlining:

• The facts of the case
• The injuries sustained
• The medical treatment received and medical expenses
• The damages sought (economic and non-economic)

The best written settlement demand letters don’t just present information, they tell a compelling, legally sound story that positions the client for the best possible settlement.

Yes — but not all AI tools are created equal.

While general AI writing tools can produce text, they lack the legal training, case-specific nuance, and jurisdictional accuracy that personal injury attorneys require. 

Using the wrong tool risks producing a generic, legally insufficient letter that doesn’t hold up under scrutiny.  Moreover, because they are not a closed or optimized universe for this task, generic AI tools run the risk of generating AI hallucinations in the demand writing process that can catastrophically derail your case.

To get it right, you need legal AI software built specifically for personal injury cases. The software should be trained on real demand letters, medical documentation, and the nuances of damages presentation. 

AI Demand Pro was developed by experienced PI attorneys and incorporates regional jury instructions and case law in a closed universe, ensuring every letter is both persuasive and legally sound without legal hallucinations.

Getting started with AI Demand Pro is designed to be quick, efficient, and effortless.

Start by entering your core case details:

• Case information
• Case type
• Plaintiff information
• Defendant information

You can do this right away when you open the case in your office or right before you’re ready to generate the settlement demand.

Simply drag and drop your files, images and documents into the platform and the system organizes them for you. Our AI will sort through all the documents to determine how they relate to the case and how they should be attached as exhibits to the demand package.

Here’s what you might upload:

• Police reports
• Witness statements
• Photos or videos
• Medical records and bills
• Life care plans and expert reports

You also will have the option to select key images to embed directly in the body of the letter to make a visual impact. AI Demand Pro’s HIPAA-compliant system ensures every sensitive record stays secure, and all exhibits are automatically attached and hyperlinked in the final package.

A winning personal injury demand letter tells more than just medical facts and figures, it needs a compelling pain and suffering narrative that paints a vivid, human picture of how the incident has affected your client’s life.

This is the section that moves your case from a stack of documents to a story the adjuster can’t ignore.

AI Demand Pro builds this narrative by adding key bullet points about your client’s
