Dear Sir,
Thanks for your response.
I would want you to forward to me a copy of the mail sent to you by the
lawyer.
However,we are ready to solicite for the services of a new lawyer if you do
not want to work with him.
The most important thing is for you to let me know if you are still
interested in helping us.
Mr.Frank Dunn.
