Brief background: our relationship has been failing for some time, we lived apart in the same house but I moved out at the start of the month. I have not withdrawn contact with our child and would not - he has had our child two nights for the past two weekends and seen him in between.
I received a letter from his solicitor (it is actually one of two but the first was sent C/O my parents and I never received it) asking for a reply within 14 days or my ex will how straight to mediation. I only have a couple of days to reply and don't know what to do. I really did not want solicitors involved, I feel we should be able to sort this between us. I don't want anybody to know my private business and it feels unfairly weighted in his favour that he can afford a solicitor as past a free half hour consultation I would not be able to afford my own.
What are the legal implications of just ignoring this letter? I am not denying my ex contact so in my eyes I'm not doing anything wrong. Do I even have to go to mediation?
