The lawyer's letter only tells that the contradiction has been handled by the legal professionals entrusted by the other party through legal channels, and the visa can be refused. If you don't perform your obligations and communicate actively after receiving the lawyer's letter, it will cause the following consequences:
1, you can bring a civil lawsuit to the other court;
2. If it constitutes a crime (such as credit card fraud, etc. ), the other party will report the case to the public security organ, and the public security organ will file a criminal case and investigate the criminal responsibility of the suspect;
3. Of course, it is also possible that the lawyer's letter sent by the other party is inconsistent with the facts and finally goes away, but it is only a rare case.
In addition, after receiving the other party's lawyer's letter, we should carefully study the other party's intention and respond positively, rather than ignore it passively. If necessary, you can go to a local law firm nearby and ask a lawyer to look at it before making a decision.
Function and function of lawyer's letter;
1. The lawyer's letter can recover the creditor's rights such as the payment owed by the entrustment in a convenient way. In commercial activities, the situation of default in payment for goods occurs from time to time. If it is solved directly through litigation, it will not only take a long time, but also lose customers. If the seriousness of the problem is pointed out to the customer through a lawyer's letter, the customer will consider solving the adverse consequences through litigation and will repay the arrears;
2. Before filing a lawsuit or applying for arbitration, sending a letter through a lawyer can delay the limitation of action;
3. A letter from a lawyer can clarify the facts and stop illegal infringement. Lawyer's letter has the function of clarifying facts and deterring illegal acts, which is beyond the reach of ordinary business letters and folk letters;
4. Perform other statutory notification obligations with a lawyer's letter. There are many aspects in this respect, such as notifying and ratifying the agent's agency behavior, exercising the right of uneasy defense, exercising the right of defense at the same time, exercising the right of defense in advance, notifying the contract to be invalid, exercising the right of cancellation, etc. All parties have the right to complete the notification through a lawyer's letter.
To sum up, a lawyer's letter is a legal act of entrusting an agent to express his will. The lawyer's letter is a serious and legally significant document in form. For example, the lawyer's letter issued by the debtor has the function of urging and has the meaning of giving priority to the enemy. Let the receiver compare the actual problem with the legal consequences and make an evaluation, whether to perform it by itself or choose litigation. In the legal sense, it also has the function of interrupting the limitation of action. For example, a lawyer accepts the entrustment of the parties and sends a letter to the debtor. Once the letter is signed, it has the legal effect of interrupting the limitation of action.
