A legal notice is a formal written communication sent through an advocate on their letterhead, demanding a specific action or remedy within a stated period — typically 15-30 days. It is the first procedural step before filing a civil suit, cheque bounce case (Section 138 NI Act), consumer complaint, or arbitration. Most disputes settle at the legal notice stage itself because the recipient now sees a credible legal threat, lawyer involvement, and a clear timeline.
RegisterEase has a panel of 60+ practising advocates across India. Your notice is drafted by an advocate qualified in the relevant area — civil for contract disputes, criminal for cheque bounce, consumer law for service deficiencies, IPR for trademark/copyright infringement, employment law for wrongful termination. The notice cites specific sections, judicial precedents, and gives the recipient a clear path to comply.
Pricing starts at ₹1,999 for standard notices (unpaid invoice, cheque bounce, employment dues). Complex notices — defamation, partnership dispute, IPR infringement, lengthy contract breach — are ₹4,999. All plans include: lawyer consultation, drafting, signing on advocate letterhead, printing, postal speed-post + courier with delivery proof, and 1 follow-up call to discuss the recipient's response. If the recipient ignores the notice, we can take the matter to court — our Litigation Support package covers civil suits, NI 138, and arbitration.
Speed: most notices are delivered to the recipient within 48-72 hours of sign-up. We use registered post + tracked courier in parallel because under Indian evidence law, a notice is deemed served if it was correctly addressed and dispatched — even if the recipient refuses delivery. This protects you legally regardless of whether the recipient cooperates.
