I hired Daphne Macklin to handle a land lord and tenant issue for me and my client. It took her 8 month before making any attempts to contact the ex-landlords and over 14 months to file for trial. As it stands now she has filed the paperwork but has refused to update me on the case. I hired Ms. Macklin to take over my Workman Compensation Case because she convinced me that Administrative Law was very similar to workman compensation. Ms. Macklin lied to me repeatedly in the case and never filed the documents that my primary treating physician and I offered her and she filed multiple DOR back to back and incorrectly which she was scolded by Stockton IA Officers and WCJ. I wanted to do a request for reconsideration and I gave her all the files that the judge said I didn't have along with a letter of explaining things. Ms. Macklin sent me an email promising to have the reconsideration finished by 08/07/13 but made excuses such as 1) Allergy attack 2) Missing Sister 3) Broken phone 4) Broken Computer. Ms. Macklin filed my request for reconsideration on 08/29/13 by mail having it arrive by 09/04/13 at the Stockton WCAB. IT WAS UNTIMELY! The judge request the case not be heard due to UNTIMELY AND THE MERITS STILL INDICATING THAT HER FIRST JUDGEMENT WAS TRUE BECAUSE DAPHNE MACKLIN LIED TO ME AND DIDN'T SEND IN THE DOCUMENTS THAT WE AGREED UPON NEITHER DID SHE SEND MY LETTER. Untimely filed cases are permanently dismissed and can never be reconsidered again. SHE SAID SHE WOULD NOT CHARGE ME ANYTHING BECAUSE OF HER MISTAKES BUT THAT JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH. YOU MESSED UP MY CASE AND DIDN'T HAVE THE COMMON DECENCY TO EXPLAIN TO THE JUDGE YOURSELF WHILE YOU FILED LATE BUT LEFT IT TO ME TO CLEAN UP YOUR MISTAKES. IF YOU WOULD HAVE WROTE A LETTER TO THE JUDGE EXPLAINING WHY THE FILE WAS LATE. THE WCJ COMPLAINED THAT YOU NEVER GAVE AN EXPLANATION FOR THE UNTIMELY FILING. AND NOW AS IF THAT WASN'T ENOUGH WE STILL HAVE AN OPEN CASE IN STOCKTON SUPERIOR COURT BUT BECAUSE OF PRIDE SHE HAS REFUSED TO CONTINUE IT I ASSUME BECAUSE SHE HAS NOT CONTACT ME SINCE SEPTEMBER AND WE WERE SUPPOSED TO GO TO COURT IN OCTOBER! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS ATTORNEY AT ALL AND IF ANY OF HER ENDORSERS KNEW WHAT SHE WAS REALLY LIKE THEY WOULD NOT ENDORSE SUCH AN ATTORNEY. I SENT MS. MACKLIN CARDS THANKING HER FOR HER HELP AND I EVEN PAID FOR HER WAY TO COME TO STOCKTON TO GO TO COURT SINCE HER CAR WAS BROKEN AND THIS IS HOW SHE REPAYS ME? HER WHOLE PLAN IS TO GET AS MANY RETAINERS AS SHE CAN IN ORDER TO PAY HER RENT BUT SHE GETS BEHIND ON CASES BECAUSE SHE OVER LOADED HERSELF. SHE WILL TELL YOU ANYTHING YOU WANT TO HEAR IN ORDER TO GET THE RETAINER. EVEN THOUGH YOU MESSED UP MY WORKMAN COMP CASE POSSIBLY BEYOND REPAIR I PAID YOU TO GO TO COURT OVER THE LANDLORD TENANT ISSUE AND I CONTACT YOU YESTERDAY AS WELL AS MANY TIMES. I NEED TO KNOW HAVE YOU DECIDED TO ABANDON THIS CASE ALSO. YOU NEED TO RESPOND TO ME AN TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS!
