Why It’s Important to Send a Notice

Why It’s Important to Send a Notice

A legal notice is often the first step in any legal action. It formally communicates your grievance, gives the other party a chance to respond, and acts as documented proof of your attempt to resolve the issue - often compelling them to act without litigation.
