Although a demand letter is not a required prerequisite to a lawsuit under California law, courts tend to have a more favorable view of parties that make good faith efforts to resolve disputes prior to formal legal action in court.
For California small claims, you don't have to “serve” a demand letter. You just have to send the demand letter. You can send it by mail, email, or hand delivery, or you can text the demand letter.
