Respescted Sir,

Since last 2 months, there were some differences is going on between me and one company officials over the matter of payment of money to me. Matter has not given a legal shape till now. Suddenly, a day befor yesterday, I have received one letter by courier, which is from one Advocate asking me to close the matter with the said company or face some action. Sir, how can I know that this person is an advocate or legal repersentative of the said company. Can I ask for a letter of Authority from the Advocate which the said company has given to the him. Can the said company is bound by all the communications of Advocate.Please advise me on the matter.

Thanks.

Such advocate must have written in his notice that he is writing this on behalf of the company and if he has written this then it is sufficient to conclude written on behalf of company and thus company is bound by the contents of the letter/notice.

Sir, the letter contains only 'the xyz company is my client'. Is this sufficient or I should ask for authority letter.

what is your status in the said company. are you appointed by the said company for any matter or any legal work? do you have any letter of appointment? if so then you should mentioned the details in aletter and reply to the said advocate further you can send a cc. to the company and call upon them to get the solution about your disppute. in short get all the matter on record for defence.
