Notice of Breach of Contract

A Breach of Contract Notice serves to inform one party to a contract that they are acting or have acted in breach of their contractual obligations. In other words, a party to a contract is failing to perform their contractual commitments as they fall due. This document allows the non-breaching party to effectively communicate the precise nature of the offending conduct, the reasons why it is inconsistent with the contractual arrangement and what the breaching party can do to remedy the situation.

The document includes space for the user to specify the precise clause or article impugned, allowing the breaching party to quickly identify the source of their legal obligation. Sending a notice of breach of contract is an efficient way of compelling the other party to conform with their obligations. If resolution between the parties is not found and subsequent legal action embarked upon, this breach of contract notice is a useful statement of the non-breaching party's perspective and their attempts to remedy the situation should legal proceedings ensue.
