Greetings.
Since the incident I have not been able to eat at restaurants without fear the food I am
eating was infested with cockroach or other pest. I am a victim of your employee’s
negligence. Under the legal doctrine of respondeat superior, in many circumstances,
an employer is responsible for the actions of employees performed within the course of
their employment. In the present incident, as an employer, the restaurant is liable for
the negligent actions of an employee while the employee is acting within the scope of
his or her employment. Clearly your employee was acting within the scope of his
employment at the time he negligently allowed my food to be contaminated with a
cockroach.
The following represents the damages I am deemed entitled because of such incident:
After careful consideration of liability and damages, and an in-depth review of standard
settlements for cases with similar fact patterns, I am convinced a fair and reasonable
settlement inclusive of my pain and suffering is a total of Php ____(amount in
words)_____________(Php__________.00), Philippine Currency.
Failure on your part to respond with the foregoing demands within Ten (10) Days from
receipt hereof, will constrain me to file the appropriate legal action. I reserve the right
to commence legal proceedings without further notice to you and this letter may be
tendered in court as evidence against you. It would be in the best interest of both
parties to resolve this matter before such action becomes necessary.
Sincerely,
