Client who had to sue his lawyer for overbilling and fraud
This case has been subject to nearly five years of delays, as Brooke MacLeod continues to avoid proceeding to a hearing. She is now working with her third lawyer, who has made false statements to the court and knowingly attempted to introduce improper procedures—conduct that is unbecoming of a legal professional. It is evident that his actions are directed by Brooke MacLeod herself. In her most recent affidavit, Ms. MacLeod swore that she never claimed to be an expert in family law, despite having practiced for 23 years. This raises serious concerns, as clients paying premium rates would reasonably expect competence rather than years of repeated errors. Additionally, her lawyer has repeatedly threatened to file a defamation lawsuit. However, when I offered to personally collect the lawsuit, he failed to follow through, suggesting these threats are baseless and intended solely as intimidation. Go to the Victoria courthouse registry for taxation accounts for lawyers and put in Brooke MacLeod and ask the staff for assistance. Have a read of what Brooks’ clients really say about her as opposed to friendly reviews. The polarizing reviews are either a zero or a five. It is public knowledge buyer beware.
