A. Dear Client,
Your query suffers from a lack of information to address it suitably. However, be informed that in the absence of documentary evidence showing the ground/reason behind the transaction of money between the parties, no legal remedy is feasible to recover the said money even through litigation. You may, however, serve a legal notice to the friend asking him to refrain from threatening which may work or may not work.

Once agreed, a guarantor cannot revoke or cancel his guarantee to the said loan unilaterally which is legally impermissible. Even in the absence of a borrower or guarantor his or her ...ReadMore
