FAQ

Does it have to be notarised?

Requirements differ: many places require two adult witnesses and some require a notary. Check the rule where you live, and give copies to your agent and doctor.

Is a legal notice sent by me valid, or must a lawyer send it?

In most places a notice sent by you is valid, but a notice from a lawyer carries more weight. For high-value or contested matters, have a lawyer check it first.

How should I deliver a legal notice?

By registered post with acknowledgement, courier with proof of delivery, or a tracked e-mail where the other side's address is known. Keep every receipt.
