Posted by Daniel | January 22, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Probate

Abandoned my mother on December 6th court proceeding when he was listed as her new attorney on the Substitution of Attorney

My review about Attorney David Louis Brown Jr, is proven by supporting documentary evidence that I have in my possession, and my account of what happened is in chronological order as the events occured. (#1) On November 1st 2018 my Mother and I each signed a retainer agreement for 5,000 dollars f...or a certain probate attorney to represent us both on a upcoming December 6 the court proceeding (#1) This is when I read in a report that opposing counsel stated that there was a potential conflict my mother and I being represented by the same attorney, and opposing counsel stated that my mother would benefit from a court appointed attorney to represent her on the upcoming December 6th court proceeding. (#2) This was when I decided to retain the Law Firm where Attorney David Louis Brown was a associate for 9,000 dollars cash to work with the first attorney to remove the conflict that was brought up by opposing counsel and to give my mother the benefit if a private attorney. (#3) This is what occured next On November 2nd 2018, First Attorney notified me that he received the report from opposing counsel that requested that my mother be represented by a court appointed attorney. (#4) On November 2nd 2018 The evidence shows the first attorney sent a message to the head attorney where Attorney David Louis Brown, was a associate and stated that it seems on December 6th you will he representing my blank on the December 6th court proceeding and you or your partner Attorney David Louis Brown, will be representing blank on the December 6th court proceeding then he states likely a substitution of attorney would be appropriate as I filed opposition on behalf of blank. (#5) Now on November 28th 2018 Attorney David Louis Brown was instructed by the head attorney he was a associate at to obtain my signature on a substitution if attorney stated that they received a message from blank needing the substitution of attorney because he wanted to represent my mother on the upcoming December 6th court proceeding, so I signed the substitution of attorney. (#6) Now this is when there whole scheme started Attorney David Louis Browns Paralegal filed the Substitution of attorney without the signature of the first attorney who requested it, and wrote where he was suppose to sign signature was on next page which it wasn't, so she filed the Substitution of attorney without the signature of the first attorney. (#7) Now on December 4th 2018, the first attorney prepared a second substitution of attorney forged my signature on the substitution of attorney and used it to release himself from representing my mother on the upcoming December 6th court proceeding. (#8) Now on December 6th the first attorney failed to show up to court which allowed the court to appoint a court appointed attorney to represent my mother. (#9) Now when this occured I tried multiple times to get in touch with the first attorney but he kept avoiding my calls and visits to this office, (#10) Now on January 13th 2019. I got a message from first attorney telling me that I never retained him to represent my mother or myself and then he stated that Attorney David Brown asked the court if he could represent my mother and as expected the court denied hus request. and he kept the 10,000 dollar retainer. This is what I found out when I reviewed the substitution of attorney. The Substitution of attorney states that I released the first attorney and my mother's new attorney was Attorney David Louis Brown, but was really disturbing on the December 6th court proceeding Attorney David Louis Brown showed up to court representing me not my mother and he allowed the appointment of a court appointed attorney to represent my mother, abandoning my mother when he knew he was here new attorney. Every thing I just wrote is supported by documents , this is exactly what happened

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"David and I had a case together up until recently. It was a difficult case with many challenging issues, both legal, factual, and interpersonal. Even if our clients did not always agree he was a gentlemen and approached the matter with delicacy and respect, which is needed in family law matters. It is my hope we cross paths again in the near future."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"David is a great lawyer who can present any case in an effective manner. His natural ability to see the defining issue of any case, and to then simplify that issue for a judge or jury to understand, followed by his talent to show them that his client's version is the most logical,is what makes him one of the top attorneys in Sacramento."
