SNIP I think it makes a difference what you write on also. Plain white notebook paper just says I'm in a hurry and this is not very well thought out, but Yellow ruled on legal paper says I mean business, and already have a lawyer on retainer.
If you really mean business, your mom has her attorney type the note on the firm's letterhead. A full-size sheet is easily recognizeable by any punk.
Plus, when the police come to investigate your DNU (defensive note use), they'll know they're dealing with some serious stuff.
