This query is : Resolved
When I receive a legal notice vexatious in nature, is it mandatory to reply to that notice.
If I do reply, should the reply be made through another lawyer or shall I myself do reply to the lawyer?
Can I send the reply directly to the person for whom the lawyer has issued notice.
Can I keep quiet and wait for the suit, since I know well that the allegations are false in nature.

It is always better to reply the notice though it is not mandatory. You can either personally or through a lawyer send the reply either to the lawyer or the person concerned directly. You can keep quiet and wait for the suit if you are damn sure that you will win !

You can send a notice in person if you are confident enough that you can handle the legal problems well. Or not engage a Lawyer with competency. Better send a reply as suggested.

1. Though it is not mandatory, it is necessary to reply to any legal notice, instead, it become strength to your case.
2. You need to reply by you or by your advocate to that person who sent or to his advocate.
3. You can also wait till the summons served, if you strongly believe that you win the case.

It is better to reply. U can also reply to the Advocate and to the person on behalf of whom the notice is issued. If u replied true facts will come out some times.
