Actual notice. Actual notice is a law term, used most frequently in civil procedure. It is notice (usually to a defendant in a civil proceeding) delivered in such a way as to give legally sufficient assurance that actual knowledge of the matter has been conveyed to the recipient.

Under CDARA, a ânotice of claimâ means a written notice sent by a claimant to the last known address of the construction professional responsible for the claimed defect. Importantly, the notice of claim must be reasonably detailed to allow the recipient to determine the general nature of the defect claimed. For example, the notice of claim must include a general description of the type and location of the construction that the claimant alleges to be defective and any damages claimed to have been caused by the defect.
