The Debt Acknowledgement Form (IOU) is a legal document that serves to confirm and acknowledge the indebtedness of a debtor to a creditor. This form includes key information such as the names of both parties, the amount owed, and any legally permissible charges, including interest, up to the specified date. The debtor signs this document to acknowledge responsibility for the debt, indicating there are no disputes regarding the incurred debts. Notably, it also contains a clause that permits the creditor to use the document in court as a confession to judgment, where applicable. For filling out the form, users should accurately enter both parties’ names, the amount owed, and the agreed payment date, followed by signatures and printed names of both the debtor and a witness. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants as it helps formalize financial obligations and can be used as evidence in legal proceedings if disputes arise, ensuring clarity and legality in debt acknowledgment.
