Common questions
Why send a breach of contract notice by certified mail?
Many contracts require written notice and an opportunity to cure before you can terminate the agreement or sue for damages. A certified mail receipt proves the other party received formal notice on a specific date, which can be critical if the dispute ends up in court.
What should I include in a cure period?
State the specific contract provision breached, exactly what needs to happen to fix it, and a clear deadline. Check your contract's own notice-and-cure clause first — some agreements specify a minimum number of days you must give the other party.
Is this legal advice?
No — this is a template, not legal advice. Contract terms, required notice periods, and available remedies vary by agreement and by state, so consider having an attorney review your specific situation before sending.
What happens if the other party doesn't cure the breach?
That depends on your contract and state law, but typically you may then treat the agreement as terminated, withhold your own performance, and/or pursue damages or other remedies — often after consulting an attorney.
