Daphne Macklin's name and number was given to me by another attorney as a referral. I had a very unusual Civil Case that needed an attorney familiar with contract and privacy laws. I was told Daphne could point me in the right direction but when I explained my case she said she would take it... That was a big mistake. I gave her a retainer fee and Daphne spent the next year stalling me out until the statute of limitation ran out and I had no case. During this time, she became difficult to locate and when she did return my call the excuses I got were much like the excuses described in the other complaints. She was in court, she had to get a new cell phone, blah, blah, blah. We always met up at a Starbucks location where she would always repeat what she told me previously about what she was going to do. She even wanted more money from me for the filing of my paper work...Um isnt that what the retainer is for?
As we reached the time for the statute of limitation to run out I pressed her about getting my case filed and she disappeared off the map... I thought maybe she got in a car wreck or something so I google searched her name to see if there was an accident reported and guess what I stumbled across...this website! I read the report on her and when she finally got back to me I told her about this report on her. I also told her that I was going to put my trust in her because I know you cant please everbody. Needless to say she let me down. When I had 2 months before the statute to be up i got this text message from her that made me think she was drunk when she sent it because it made no sense and then she told me I needed to get another attorney.
I scrambled desperately but could not find anyone to take my case and the rest is history. She stole $750.00 from me which was all that I had left in the bank at the time but it was an investment that I thought would pay off because of my rights being violated by my insurance company. What my insurance company did to me was chicken scratch compared to what Daphne did. She has an honest look and appeal about her. She has very similar features to my mother and she perpetrated a professional fraud! Daphne Macklin disgusts me. Not only because she stole from me but because she perpetuates the stereo-type of African Americans. As an African American I have fought all my life to rise above the stereo-types of my race; which includes being a liar, thief, and hustler who cannot hold professional positions because we lack the ability to learn or we just lack the formal education. I have a business degree with a concentration in human resources and I have studied criminal justice with a concentration in human service and graduated with honors from an acredited university. Not only does Daphne have a professional career but as an attorney, it is a high profile position. She should be ashamed of herself because she is a disgrace to her profession and her race. I am here to say do not hire this fraudulent individual and it is soooo not over. I have every intention on reporting her to the California state BAR. It is not even about the money as much as it is about the principle of the matter. I have warned her of my intention to report her so when it surfaces she should not be shocked.
