Cease and Desist Letter

A cease and desist letter to the party in breach to stop any breach of non-solicitation and non-compete agreement or face legal action from the party whose contractual right has been violated.

It is a mean to enforce the non-compete / non-solicitation agreement, so as to prevent the innocent party from further suffering from a breach of contract.

In this letter, the innocent party shall refer to the contract between the parties and raise the non-compete / non-solicitation obligations that the breaching party has failed to comply with. The innocent party shall also indicate clearly that he . she is fully aware of the breach resulted in either an act or omission committed by the breaching party, in direct violation of the non-compete / non-solicitation agreement; and also outline the damages that he / she had suffered.

Accordingly, the innocent party shall demand the breaching party to immediately cease and remedy the Breach and comply with the non-compete / non-solicitation agreement as stated. If the breaching party failed to act in accordance with this letter, the innocent may exercise his right to file a lawsuit against the breaching party to assert his contractual rights.
