Document background
The Demand Letter For Breach of Contract is a critical legal instrument in Pakistani business and civil law, used when one party has failed to fulfill their contractual obligations. This document serves as a formal notice before initiating legal proceedings, typically issued after informal attempts to resolve the matter have failed. It must be drafted in compliance with Pakistani contract law, particularly the Contract Act 1872 and the Specific Relief Act 1877. The letter should clearly identify the breach, quantify damages, and specify remedial actions required, while setting deadlines for compliance. It's an essential step in dispute resolution, often required to demonstrate reasonable attempts at settlement before pursuing court action, and can be used as evidence in subsequent legal proceedings if the breach remains unresolved.
