Perhaps you could show the correspondence to an advisor at the Citizens Advice Bureau if you have difficulty with English? They may also be able to advise you on some options you may have.

Your former solicitor just wants to know if you want to use them or not. If you don't, just tell them so.

Was there a letter from him, or from a solicitor instructed by him? If so, you can answer it or ignore it. I assume your answer will be that you don't agree contact. He will then have to go to mediation (up to you whether you talk to the mediator or not, no need to see him, the mediator will see you on your own.

If he doesn't get what he wants from mediation, then he will have to apply to court, and you will have to attend. Ultimately the Court is likely to support him in having contact as long as it is safe.

Suggesting that his relationship with his daughter should be put on hold while you build one with your new partner and baby is not going to impress the court, I'm afraid.

Hope that is helpful. Can you afford to see your solicitor for advice? Presumably they know the backstory, and can advise more fully, even if you don't use them further.
