In a copyright infringement civil suit the very procedure will be followed as Civil Procedure Code. You have to file a written statement with facts and evidences denying the allegations on you in infringement . We need to study the subject of infringement and how far you fall in the subject.

The lawyer would've definitely sent you a notice before filing the case against you. In this regard, it is pertinent to note whether firstly, you have actually replied or no to the aforesaid notice. Every man, by law has the right to defend himself. However, it is advisable for you to engage a lawyer since you do not possess the expertise in law leave aside copyright law.
