CEASE AND DESIST TEMPLATE
If you’re considering filing a cease and desist letter, you don’t have to go through the hassle of getting a lawyer to write it out for you.This can be both time-consuming and extremely pricey.
Let’s take a look at cease and desist letter templates and how they can help you draft up a letter with ease.
What is a Cease and Desist Letter Template?
As the name suggests, a cease and desist letter template is a template that you can use to draw up a cease and desist letter.
In most cases, it consists of all of the legal verbiage and writing that would be featured in a regular cease and desist letter but it also features empty spaces that you can fill in yourself with the necessary data.
The best thing about these templates is that you can either print them out and fill them out by hand or you can fill them in on your computer using a PDF editor.
Keep in mind that you can technically send out your filled-in template through email but it’s often a better choice to send cease and desist letters through registered mail.
The vast majority of templates will look quite similar but they may feature some minor differences in how they’re worded. All templates will start off with a few open fields that you can use to fill in your name, address, and the date on which the cease and desist letter was sent out.
Most of these letters will start with a title like “Notice to Cease and Desist for [Activity]” and will then feature a space to fill in the name of who you’re sending the letter to. After that, the template will get down to business by featuring a field that’s meant to be filled in with the activity that the individual is being served for.
After that, most of the work is done by the template. The template will detail how a restraining order may be filed against the individual if they don’t cease their activities or how the sender will look for monetary compensation through a court of law.
The template will then detail how the cease and desist is the first and final warning and will implore the recipient to confirm that they will stop their actions by a certain date. This date is left blank on templates so that the sender can fill it out, allowing them to set them to set the timeline themselves.
Why Use a Cease and Desist Letter Template?
As we’ve already mentioned, the main reason to use one of these templates is because you can save money on hiring a lawyer to draw up a cease and desist letter for you and you can be sure that the letter is worded in a way that the recipient will understand it.
Keep in mind that the validity of a cease and desist letter doesn’t depend as heavily on its wording as other legal documents but it needs to be easy to understand for the recipient for it to count as a valid warning.
