Document background
A Notice to Sue is a crucial pre-litigation document in England and Wales that forms part of the formal dispute resolution process. It serves as the final communication before initiating court proceedings and is often required under pre-action protocols. The document should clearly state the nature of the claim, the remedy sought, and provide the recipient with a reasonable timeframe to respond or comply. It demonstrates compliance with civil procedure requirements and can help avoid costly litigation if the dispute can be resolved at this stage. The notice must be carefully drafted to ensure it contains all necessary information and meets legal requirements.
