What we handle for you
A service dispute notice that formally documents the failure, quantifies your loss, and demands remedy — the essential step before a consumer forum complaint.
Breach Articulated
Identify and articulate every specific obligation breached by the service provider — citing the service agreement and consumer protection law provisions.
Loss Quantified
Quantify the financial loss and other damages resulting from the service failure — creating a precise legal claim for compensation.
Remedy Demanded
Draft the demand for specific performance, refund, replacement, or compensation — with a clear response deadline for the service provider.
Forum Advice
Advise on the appropriate forum — consumer commission, civil court, or arbitration — based on the nature and scale of the dispute.
The 4-Step Process
From service dispute description to dispatched notice — the formal first step in service recovery.

Defines deficiency in service and provides a right to compensation before Consumer Commissions.
Specific Relief Act, 1963
Allows courts to compel specific performance of service obligations in appropriate cases.
Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996
Governs resolution of service disputes if the contract contains an arbitration clause.

DelhiFrequently Asked Questions
Stamp Duty Not Included
Government stamp duty charges apply to registered documents and vary by state. These are paid directly to the government and are not part of our service fee. Your advocate will confirm the applicable amount for your state before any document is executed.
Yes. You can claim the full cost of the service, additional costs incurred due to the failure, and compensation for consequential losses and mental agony — particularly before Consumer Commissions, which can also award punitive damages.
A verbal service agreement is still a contract. You can document the service through emails, WhatsApp chats, invoices, and payment receipts — all of which are admissible evidence of what was promised and paid for.
There is no specific mandatory deadline for a service dispute notice, but acting promptly is important. The limitation period for contract disputes is generally 3 years from the date of breach.
Legal notices to large companies often produce faster results than notices to individuals — large companies have legal departments and brand reputations to protect. A formal notice from a registered lawyer is taken very seriously.
