Legal Notice under Consumer Protection Act
Protect Your Consumer Rights. Demand Fair Resolution.
A Legal Notice under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 is a formal communication sent to manufacturers, service providers, sellers, or companies highlighting deficiencies in goods or services, unfair trade practices, or deceptive conduct. It serves as an opportunity for businesses to amicably resolve grievances before a formal complaint is filed with the appropriate Consumer Commission.
A professionally drafted notice under this Act strengthens your position, demonstrates your intent to escalate legally if unresolved, and often leads to faster settlements.
