[MI] Received subpoena to testify for woman I don't know

Hello

I received a subpoena from a law firm to come to a bench trial and testify in a domestic violence case. I believe they may have mistaken me for someone else because the woman being charged and I both have the same last name. However, I've never met this woman nor been to the city that is prosecuting her. Also on both the outside of the envelope and the letter inside informing me of what was happening they misspelled my last name, but on the form I'm being asked to fill out and send back it is spelled correctly. How should I respond to this? Would it be as simple as calling the law firm and letting them know? Am I legally required to testify? Never had any kind of interaction with court system so this is very much outside my comfort zone.
