Document background
The Notice to Remedy Breach of Contract is a fundamental legal instrument in Nigerian commercial law, used when one party needs to formally notify another of their failure to meet contractual obligations. This document is typically employed when informal attempts to resolve the breach have been unsuccessful, but before initiating legal proceedings. It serves multiple purposes: documenting the breach, demanding specific remedial action, setting clear timeframes for compliance, and establishing a paper trail for potential future litigation. The notice must comply with Nigerian contract law requirements and should be drafted with precision to ensure its legal effectiveness. This document is particularly important as it often represents a critical step in dispute resolution, potentially preventing the need for costly litigation if the breach is remedied in response to the notice.
