+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> To me, this sounds a little to generic, a little to
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> unformal when contacting a law firm. I feel that if you're
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> using &#171;Dear XXX&#187; there should be one or the other. I.e.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Either Sir og Madam, but then you need to know the gender
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> of the one responding. and that can be a little tricky.

+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> No, this is wrong, you *cannot* use just one, it has to be
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> both. You could have Dear Sir/Madam, but the correct usage
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> is as originally stated. This is an official letter, and
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> therefore should have the official address to the recipient.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Right.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Consider using a more generinc term, like &#171;Greetings&#187; or
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> &#171;Good morgning&#187; (depending on the time of day you send the
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> email.) or a similar term.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> This is far too colloquial, and unsuitable for a letter to
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> an official body.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> I also agree.
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Regards,
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> Shlomi Fish
+</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> If we're being formal and correct, it should be &quot;Dear
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Sirs/Mesdames&quot;, I'm fairly sure.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Really? Having a mix of English and French?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>LOL! I haven't seen that for 50 years!
