LEGAL NOTICE

DEFINITION
When an individual decides to take legal action against another person/entity, the first step involved is sending of an official letter/email to warn the offending party of his or her intentions. A legal notice is usually sent when a pre-decided condition was not complied upon as per the terms of the contract signed between the two parties. For example, a legal notice can be issued by a landlord to a tenant for non-payment of rent which is breach of the terms specified in the rental agreement. The landlord will then send a legal notice to the tenant to immediately pay the dues or vacate the premises.

  2. The offending party is informed about the potential litigation that can follow, while giving him or her the opportunity to rectify their error
