Ron Perrick Wants To Take Your Money And Sue You

Ron PerrickRon Perrick is an ambitious man. Not only is he a registered agent in Canada, but he also is a practicing attorney. He is experienced in the court and has represented CFL and NHL players since 1970. He also seems to be determined to piss his clients off.

Perrick decided to take $926,916 in fees from a client without giving that client any prior notice [Judge overrules lawyer’s $926,916 fee]. Such action constitutes a breach of trust, and Perrick will not say what he has done with the money. He has finally given the total amount back to a court and decided to counter-sue his client and his/her lawyer (the identity of the client is not revealed). He was going to act as his own attorney.

Perrick displayed stupid judgment in taking money out of a trust fund without notifying the client that was affected, and then withholding information when requested. And I leave you with my favorite quote from the article:

There is an old saying: A lawyer who acts for himself has a fool for a client. Judging by the tarpit that Perrick has gotten himself into, this is a case in point.

This is one of the biggest reasons that drives us to run this website. We want to “call-out” the bad agents and let everyone know that this is not the way to handle clients. It makes me sick that agents think they can pull things like this and not get caught.

I don’t know about Canada, but in the U.S. taking money out of a client trust fund without notifying said client, aside from the criminal aspect of the action, is generally a slam dunk disbarment as well. Stupid is right.

This is the beauty of today’s media. The writer, Mr. Bains, cannot truly consider himself a bona fide reporter IF he overlooks certain facts. In other words, at the time of writing his articel, he didn’t check the Appeal filed in the BC Court of Appeal which disclose relevant facts. He didn’t talk to the right person at the Law Soceity, or they would have told him their investigation cleared Ron Perrick. The person with the corporate authority in the family of 4

The real crook here is Rob Ward of Edwards Kenny and Bray. He is a big man — for now. He got his name in the newspaper as the supposed good guy out to get the bad guy. He has lied to the Court and misled with incorrect facts. More to the point, Rob Ward has perpetrated a Fraud on the Courts and stung Ron Perrick’s reputation, temporarily.

Mr. Ward only assisted and protected the real swindlers by uttering the forged documents in the case against Perrick  for the real swindlers Brian Napthali and my sister-in law Rosalee McRae.

If anyone including law enforcement officials wish to have copies of the documents which they forgedfor the purpose fo hoowinking the trial judge I’ll be happy to oblige.

You should update your website stupid — the judge didn’t allow the special costs application and in his Reasons stated that Mr. Perrick WAS authorized to take the money from trust and the clients were fully aware of this.

Before you go ahead and call me stupid, realize that this is a blog…readers like yourself can update old posts in the comments. So while you call me stupid, I will respond by thanking you by adding to the discussion.

Gotta love friendly people.

Also, thanks to one of Perrick’s siblings for adding.

Hey Darren
In time the truth will prevail.

The real victimhere is the truth, which is that the proceeding against Perrick in the supreme court of BC  was preordained by counsel purporting to be on both sides.

The reality is they were both on the dark side.

typical arrogant sociopath lawyer – thinking they are smarter than the general public and can get away with anything. And don’t count on the Law Society to discipline their members – that is a joke to anyone in the know.

Hellooo out there in the mainstream media. David Baines is no better than the the arrogant real estate awindlers that fixed the trial of Ron Perrick.
Albeit the penny drops slowly it finally struck me how it was done.
If anyone wants to know how please phone Peter Crawforf at the lawfirm of Munro Crawford in Vancouver otherwise know as Estate fraud central.
He, Brian Napthali can instruct you in the fine aer of double dealing realestate.
BTW the Vancouver Sun should be declared a public nuisance and have their business license revoked for publishing false stories and as should the lawfirm of Edwards Kenny and Bray.
None of these people will sue me because they know I know the truth is that the outcome of Perrick’s trial was pre-ordained.
The truth will prevail shortly
