Cease and Desist Letter (with Undertaking)

This is a letter of notice to inform a party that they are infringing on your client's copyright. It gives a description of the details of the copyrighted work, and how is the infringing party encroaching on one's enjoyment of their copyright. 

Sometimes, copyright infringements are purely incidental. Giving notice is a cost-effective way to get the infringing party to withdraw their work that is infringing on other's copyright. However, sometimes parties may refuse to co-operate or dispute about copyrights. Litigation may then be necessary to protect a person or a company's business interests.

It requires the infringing party to give the undertaking to cease and desist from infringing the copyright in future.
