The merits and conduct of the NI Act case lies in the statutory notice.Engaging a competent lawyer immediately send a legal reply to the notice stating the facts.

For fake documents, you can get the documents checked through handwriting expert / can file FIR as the case warrants.
Reply the notice through your lawyer.
He must be filing Income tax return, has he shown this item in his documents?
Your lawyer would effectively prepare defense for the case.

If your signatures are actual, your plea of no witness may not be accepted by court.
