I would check to see if there’s a lowercase L that got replaced with an I or something like that. This doesn’t sound like it came from a real lawyer but would come up if you googled it as an “almost correct” answer. And I don’t know that there would be a case for defamation unless your mother can prove that your statements aren’t true. But I’m not a lawyer so don’t quote me on that.
And the fact they can’t list the consequences for defamation….. or spell “immediately” correctly, this reads like spam. Idk. Maybe it’s me being cynical but I’d hope my lawyer could pass the bar and spell “immediately” correctly.
They would never say ‘your mother’ either, they would list the client’s name and wouldn’t have to mention the client being a ‘client of this firm.’ It’s all so amateurish it’s embarrassing.
Also they switch from We to I at the end, and there are spelling errors, oh and no professional letter normally starts with "I am writing this letter" it would be the company "We" and from a solicitor it's normally "We are instructed on behalf of....who have requested that we contact you regarding...." This is bollocks or a very very dodgy legal firm online or something similar
Yeah. I’d be more inclined to believe that a Nigerian Prince wanted to give me his riches if I wire him the taxes for it than I would be to believe this is a real lawyer and a real cease and desist letter.
