I only know that if you file a court case and the judge dismisses it "without prejudice," that means you can file it again after you correct whatever was wrong. If "with prejudice", you cannot file again. |

It generally means that the person writing the letter is making no special exceptions just for you.
I also think it means if you were to take them to court you wouldn't be able to use the letter in your case
Not being a Law bod though I could be completely wrong |

The use of the expression "without prejudice" is commonly understood to mean that if there is no settlement, the party making the offer is free to assert all its rights, unaffected by anything stated or done in the negotiations.... |

the action you are taking ie paying the bill or answering a question etc does not preduice any further action that you take ... paying the bill doesn't mean you agree with the bill or accept the liability |

WIthout prejudice basically mean that any decisions made will be made on the circumstances and factors that are relevant (like financial situation, employment, previous records, etc.), and other non-relevant (like race, religion, gender, etc.) issues will not or should not influence that decision. |

since "preduice" isn't a word, i don't know...but without prejudice means:
"When a case is dismissed but the plaintiff is allowed to bring a new suit on the same claim." |

if you mean in a legal sense - without prejudice means that a plaintiff can bring a new suit on the same claim at a later time. |

This is a term that is commonly used in connection with motor insurance claims and is used to the effect that whatever is said within the letter shall not prejudice the postion of the person writing the letter if the case came to Court |

Nimbus' answer is good. The practical upshot is this:
"Here's my offer. If you take my offer, then great. However, if you don't take this offer, I'm not admitting to anything, and I retain my right to defend myself (or go after you) in whatever way I can"
In other words, me making this offer shouldn't prejudice any further action should the offer be rejected. |

I assume you meant without prejudice. It means without judgement or action. |
