plz extend ur guidance sir?
Rajendra K Goyal (Expert) 13 February 2014
If you have agreement with you and the signatures are not resembling in his letters, write acknowledgement of letters to him mentioning that you have received the letter, noted the contents but signatures are materially differing with signatures on agreement hence Confirm by return post that the letter was written by him and contents are confirmed. Also write that in case no reply received it would be presumed that it was written by him.

Post such acknowledgement by Registered Post.

sir is change of signatures for same contract and its communication permissible in the eye of law?
Guest (Expert) 15 February 2014
You could confirm his genuine and actual signature by doing what I had suggested above and it would simplify your issue.Read my suggestion once again above.
Annu (Querist) 15 February 2014
sir we are not on talking terms as such
Guest (Expert) 15 February 2014
You better consult a good criminal lawyer with all documents
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 15 February 2014
If the author does not want to follow any advise give here, it is left to him/her, better consult a local lawyer, pay his fees and go by his advise.
Guest (Expert) 15 February 2014
The main thing is, have you experienced any specific problem in performance of the contract? If so, discuss frankly, instead of raising supplementary queries, as there is no end of queries, if the specific problem is not discussed. Question of difference in signatures can arise only if there is any legal dispute between both the parties.
Annu (Querist) 15 February 2014
dhingra sir so far no legal course has been taken except letters and notices from my side.i am worried before going into legal battle because that person has in the past manipulated my local lawyer.moreover i dont know how much time it will take for the verdict to come.
Guest (Expert) 15 February 2014
If no legal problem for the time being, you should not think that he would work to create problem, just in your line of thinking. Ask your query only if some problem arises out of your agreement and the correspondence.
Rajendra K Goyal (Expert) 16 February 2014
Agree with suggestion of the expert PS Dhingra ji.
Advocate. Arunagiri (Expert) 16 February 2014
Mr.Dhingra:- I am also having the similar line of thinking.
