Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Alabama

Re: Promissory note

Well, you can continue to provide services to this client, even in the absence of a Note, and he will still legally owe you for the previous services. Continuing to provide the services will not change that. However, if you wish to provide him with a written "reminder" and get the extra security, you can have him sign an agreement acknowledging the previous amounts owed as well as amounts for future services. This could be done via a "Retainer Agreement", such as lawyers use but any type of written agreement would suffice. What is your intent in wanting to have him execute a note? Are you wanting to charge interest? You will probably want to draft something that is tailor-made for this situation and not try to use some adapted form that was originally drafted for another purpose.
