Letter before claim: common law private nuisance

This example letter before claim is for use as a starting point by the solicitors of a prospective claimant who has a claim in common law private nuisance that is disputed by the prospective defendant, where none of the specific pre-action protocols or other formal pre-action procedure applies. The letter requests the prospective defendant to abate a continuing nuisance and seeks damages for the nuisance.

The letter before claim must be adapted to the specific facts and circumstances. It should be read in conjunction with its integrated drafting notes and Practice note, Common law nuisance.
