Deadline at a glance

usually 7 days

Deadline set in the letter

The deadline set in the letter is usually short. If it is not met, a preliminary injunction (einstweilige Verfügung) with a considerable cost risk may follow.

It is an AI, not a person: nobody looks at your individual case, and we do not know who signs up or for what reason. That is why we give pointers, but no legal advice on the individual case. Guidelines and playbooks in the platform are only guardrails: the AI relies on the available sources and your information. AI can make mistakes — check important results, and if in doubt, ask a lawyer.

What you can do here in 5 minutes

Competition law cease-and-desist letters often come with excessive cease-and-desist declarations and high contractual penalties. Modifying rather than signing is usually the right response.

Upload the cease-and-desist letter – our AI tools check standing to sue, the value in dispute and the risk of repetition, and draft a modified cease-and-desist declaration.
