You should file a private complaint under Section 200 CrPC before the Magistrate seeking direction under Section 156(3) CrPC for registration of FIR. Parallelly, initiate Section 138 NI Act proceedings for dishonoured cheques and a civil suit for recovery based on promissory notes. Forged cheques and denial of signature attract serious offences. Advocate delay does not bar your remedies; act promptly with court intervention.
