Detailed Information on Legal Notice

A “Legal Notice” is a legal intimation sent to the opponent indicating that the aggrieved is preparing to file a lawsuit against the concern in case the demand mentioned in the relevant notice is not fulfilled.
Therefore, in a nutshell a legal notice can be defined as a formal communication to any person or a legal entity, informing the other party of your intention to undertake legal proceedings against them.

This notice, when sent, conveys your intention prior to the legal proceedings and thus, makes the party aware of your grievance.

Legal Notice is the concept describing a requirement that a party, company & person be aware of legal procedure affecting their own rights, obligations or duties.

A written document sent to someone, be it a person, company or any other entity, specifying that you have some grievances and you are preparing to file suit against him in civil court if the required demand is not fulfilled, is known as a Legal Notice.
Legal Notice is the baby step towards legal proceedings, and it acts like a warning to the person laying down conditions that need to be fulfilled, otherwise a civil suit shall be filed against him. For instance, if the tenant has not paid rent, the landlord can send a legal notice. In this case a tenant eviction notice is sent to the tenant for the nonpayment of rent. It states that if the rent is not paid before the specified date, the landlord has the right to initiate legal proceedings against him for payment of dues before a specified date or face eviction from the premises immediately.

The purpose of notice, in this case, is to give an opportunity to the concerned officer to revaluate his action and provide a justification or offer compensation.  

The Apex Court in its landmark judgment of Bihari Chowdhary & Anr vs State Of Bihar & Ors has said that the object of the section is the advancement of justice and the securing of public good by avoidance of unnecessary litigation.

  • The aggrieved party can state his grievances in the legal notice explicitly
  • It brings out the clear intention of the parties to resolve the issue and save oneself from the civil suit.
  • It gives a chance to the receiver of notice to resolve the issue cordinally with the sender.
