Um, I HIGHLY recommend that you DO NOT do this. Technically, you are mis-representing yourself as an "officer of the court" (e.g. a firm which employs people who have passed the Virginia bar). It's a crime similar to impersonating a law enforcement officer. However, along these lines, it's perfectly reasonable to hire an attorney (some will do it gratis or for an extremely small fee) to draft a follow-up "letter of demand threatening suit" in their office's letterhead. In practice, all this does is intimidate the legally ignorant (e.g. not normally any kind of corporation) since the attorney must go through the exact same legal hurdles as the debtor and the amounts involved in this case would never be worth engaging the firm's personnel. Essentially, these levels of disputes are "write-offs" and "costs of doing business" to those who can afford to hire an attorney in the first place. The only reason to engage an attorney here is if you wished to wage a profitless, but potentially damaging, negative PR campaign (think Gloria Allred) against this firm.
