Indian Advocate: Draft Legal Notice + Section 12A Mediation (West Bengal Commercial Dispute)

Posted 3 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

I need an Indian advocate to draft and dispatch a formal legal notice in a cross-border commercial dispute, with potential follow-through to Section 12A pre-institution mediation under the Commercial Courts Act 2015. Matter: a West Bengal registered private limited BPO and virtual-assistant services company made repeated false written representations about task completion. It confirmed in writing that a critical document was signed and a deposit delivered. We discovered 25 days later that the signature block was blank and the deposit was never delivered, and the vendor then admitted the failure in writing. This caused consequential reputational harm with a third party. Claim value is between USD 10,000 and 60,000. Objective: a precise legal notice under the Indian Contract Act 1872 (Sections 39 and 73) and the Consumer Protection Act 2019, using the vendor's own written admissions to pierce a standard contractual liability cap on the grounds of gross negligence and habitual breach, then Section 12A mediation if it does not settle. To be considered, please reply with: 1. Confirmation that you, and any firm you practice with, hold no current or prior relationship with, and can act adverse to, a West Bengal registered private limited BPO and virtual-assistant company. The exact corporate name and CIN will be shared at engagement. 2. Your relevant experience with legal notices, cross-border commercial disputes, and Section 12A mediation. 3. A flat-fee quote on two options: (A) drafting, dispatch, and the first round of response and negotiation; (B) drafting and dispatch only, with a separate estimate for Section 12A mediation. All communication and engagement will be handled here on Upwork.
