We have no relationship with this woman and there is no trust at all. My sister wants to claim her share of the child and her lawyer has asked her to add me. Now I wanted to talk to this lawyer first to ask for my own information and she told me that she has already sent out a letter with my name in it in which she summons the stepmother for both of us to provide insight into the finances. My sister is said to have said that I gave permission. My question to you is, what can I do about this. I had not given permission at all, I had not even spoken to the lawyer yet! and after hearing the plans I do not intend to join this. How is this possible and what should I do? Isn't this unlawful use of my name? I thank you very much for your answer\n Kind regards\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Lawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e \nThe lawyer should not have sent a letter on your behalf. You can therefore ask the lawyer to send a rectification to your stepmother that he is not acting on your behalf. You can also file a complaint against the lawyer with the dean of the Bar Association.\n\n","brand":"Rechtswinkel.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55016583758173,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rechtswinkel.nl\/en\/products\/vragen-33043-goedendag-ik-ben-door-mijn-zus-gevraagd-om-mij-aan-te-sluiten-bij-haar-intentie-om-een-rechtzaak-aa","provider":"Rechtswinkel.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
