Well, they should already know that when you receive a letter from a
lawyer you hand it over to your own lawyer for advice. The law is
specifically designed so only lawyers can take part, if a layman tries
to take on a lawyer they will lose on a technicality designed for
precisely that purpose. (Me, a cynic?)
