When to use this draft

Use before filing a recovery or contract suit; it establishes the demand and often produces settlement.

Essential contents

  • Sender and recipient particulars
  • Facts and the contractual obligation
  • Specific breach with dates
  • Exact amount demanded
  • Time limit for compliance
  • Statement that suit will follow at the cost of the addressee

Drafting notes

  1. Send by courier and registered post AD, and keep the receipts - they prove service.
  2. Do not overstate the claim; the notice becomes an exhibit at trial.
  3. Keep it factual and free of abuse - tone matters when the notice is read by a judge.

Adapt before filing

This is a structural template, not advice on your matter. Facts, dates, valuation, jurisdiction and the prayer must be settled by a lawyer licensed to practise in Pakistan.
