Dear Sir / Madam,

Yes, the foreign law firm can send a legal notice to the Indian partnership firm, especially in the light of the Indian partnership firm having a foreign partner and it will be binding on the partnership firm. If the partnership deed specifies that all legal disputes will be referred to a local court in India, the foreign law firm will either have to make a representation itself through its branch opened in India, or it will have to appoint a local law firm for representation.
