This letter serves as a demand for the offending party to stop their defamatory actions, specifically highlighting slanderous or libelous statements. Key features of the form include space for detailing the specific false statements made and a clear notice of potential legal consequences if the behavior continues.

This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants engaged in defamation cases, as it equips them with a structured approach to initiate a legal claim while protecting a client's reputation. Proper use of this letter can help in documenting the offense and potentially avoid further legal actions by encouraging the offending party to cease their defamatory conduct.
