English Lawyer in Spain Seeks Legal Advice

Paula Basham Seeks Legal Advice

5 August 2009

Aplogies to all Injustice in Europe readers as it has been somewhat hectic lately and the e-mail box was inaccessable for a while. There have been several comments but perhaps this was the most interesting of all. It came in on the 23rd January 2009.

“Your web site has been brought to my attention, I will be taking the advice of my lawyers re the content of this page referring to a Miss Jensen who apparently was employed by the company Axar Properties.”

Paula Basham

We are not surprised that this site was brought to Paula Basham’s attention. Have you tried to Google Axar Property or Axar Properties lately?

Injustice in Europe would like to point out to Paula Basham that Ms. Jensen was NOT “apparently” employed by the company Axar Properties, she WAS employed by Axar Properties.  You were her boss, you hired her and you fired her. You, as her boss were twice found liable in Malaga Court, once for wrongful dismissal of a pregnant woman, namely Ms. Jensen and you have not yet paid either of the fines that you were given.

Injustice in Europe, however, will happily remove and apologize for any factual errors should Paula Basham care to point them out.

Moving on…Axar Properties is no longer called Axar Properties but has cunningly changed the name to Axar Property. We would not want  you,  the readers, to be fooled or indeed confused between the two. Perhaps the Tax Department or the Social Security Department will be for a while but not the readers of Injustice in Europe.

Axar Property is owned by Paula Basham, as was Axar Properties S.L. The website has the same format as Axar Properties it even has many of the same properties on their website for sale as when Ms. Jensen worked there.

I wonder if she is missed.

Please remember, there is a comments box below where you or Paula Basham and her  supporters can leave  remarks for others to see.

English Lawyers in Spain, Can You Trust Them?

Certain English lawyers in Spain are not to be trusted.

It seems that they are willing to flout laws and bamboozle ex-patriots of whatever nationality with their superior knowledge of the law, language and common practices. 

This does not only apply to English lawyers in Spain of course but let us concern ourselves with them for the time being.

This blog has cited the case of Edward Kirwan who was to be railroaded from his home on the 21st January 2009 as the result of an illegal action brought by De Cotta Law on behalf of their client Valerie Celia Russell. 

International laws become something  of a joke when a judge sitting in Hastings in England can pronounce a judgement in a divorce case based on a Spanish property valuation. The valuation was proven false,  it was written in Spanish which is a language the judge could neither read, write nor speak. Yet  District Judge Pollard was able to do this… how amazing…

Ask District Judge Pollard next time you see him…señor, habla español?

However, based on his superior knowledge of the law, his professional position and the fact that he had had an apartment and stayed in the Marbella or Puerto Banus area on his holidays, gave him, it appears,  sufficient understanding of the Spanish law to make a court order. 

Sadly, the court order was “mis-translated” by an Official Translator, Barry True and was used against Edward Kirwan, initially by Jon Sutton of DeCotta Law, to prevent him from honouring the court order. Interestingly, the official translation was acted upon several days before Barry True stamped it.

Time passed and DeCotta Law, on behalf of their client Valerie Celia Russell, appealed the decision of the Torrox Court on a technicality. De Cotta McKenna y Santafé had the appeal denied on 12th March 2009. 

De Cotta McKenna y Santafé have appealed again, this time to the higher court in Madrid…do De Cotta McKenna y Santafé really want to continue this charade? Do they want to defend their illegal action? The mind really boggles…or is it just another day in Surreal Spain?

I hear you shout “FRAUD” and you are not wrong…watch this space…

Wake up! There are ordinary intelligent individuals living and working in all parts of Spain and other countries in Europe, who are being exploited by  ”the system”. Why?

There are all manner of reasons but perhaps because they do not speak the language,  perhaps they do not understand the proceedures, perhaps they cannot afford to pay the fees of English lawyers in Spain but certainly they do not want to be exploited further.

Meanwhile, English Lawyer, Paula Basham and owner of Axar Property continues with business as usual with seemingly scant regard for the plight of her former employee (or as we are now noitfied employees).

Paula Basham is totally refusing to acknowledge or respect the heavy fines imposed on her by the Court in Malaga for her illegal actions.

Although the “office staff” at Axar Property have their lips tightly sealed, possibly through fear,  it appears nothing much has changed there in regard to employee’s rights and employer obligations. 

The misery and suffering these English lawyers in Spain have caused in the instances cited  above is quite beyond measure.

Anyone might forgive drunken louts behaving in this fashion but the action of these educated and presumably cold sober professionals brings disgrace to the English people and makes it  a shame to be known as English.
