Delaware : Legal Notice by email
<p>My contract (Delaware Law) doesn't specify how notices have to be delivered.</p>

<p>By default, is email a legal notice ?</p>

<p>I want to terminate a contract and have to notify the person of the termination. </p>

<p>Thanks !</p>

<p>Your best bet would be to check with a local attorney familiar with the local court's rules and the customs of the jurisdiction. But if you have the person's physical address, why not just use it and send it registered mail? Sort of takes the entire uncertainty part out of the ordeal. I don't know if notice requirements will be more or less stringent in your jurisdiction, but, for example, service of process by electronic means, such as Facebook, is just starting to enter the realm of possibility (what I mean by that is court rulings recognizing them as valid are relatively new and the issue has not been fully litigated yet). </p>

<p>So, while there is a possibility your notice of termination of a contract by email would be sufficient, it would be best to check with a local attorney to understand the legal requirements in your situation and in your jurisdiction. </p>
