Hello sir,
Just week back, I got registered ad with speed post from Mrs. 498a (separated since one year) lawyer on his letter head making some allegations and asking for some information regarding her bank account. Everything part of that letter is absurd but here I am looking for some expert advice regarding these type of letters:
1) does this type of notice coming via registered ad direct from lawyer on his letter head not from court, holds any value?
2) should we even respond to such letter ?
3) if response is required, should we deny all the absurd allegations mentioned in that letter or the best way to response such letters if needed?

Pleader notice is a precursor to filing a complaint or case. You are at liberty either to respond or not. But if you strong points for rebuttal, you can reply as to deter them from filing a complaint.
