Mr. David Bester, managing director at Trident Trust company Limited Isle of Man 👺

WITHOUT PREJUDICE- This article is highly recommended to people who already work or intend to work with Trident Trust Company in Isle of Man. Trident Trust is in fact managed by a gang of incompetent, dodgy and dangerous people. They bullied and insulted me. You don't want to have anything to do with them.

 I sued Trident Trust for negligence in the management of my company. The Managaing director Mr. David Bester at Trident Trust  lied, cheated , covered up and could get away with it, because my lawyer Mr. Christopher Webb at Quinn Legal was a total idiot and in any case, there is an understanding that local firms get full protection from the courts of justice. 
In brief terms, Mr. Bester actually lied while he gave evidence regarding the accounts of my company and made up new resolution papers specially for His Honour during the trial. I think such acts could be called perjury and forgery. 

(For details pls see my blog: Trident trust Company law suit and cover ups).

However I don’t let Trident get away with it. This is an open letter to Mr. David Bester, the head liar who is nothing more than a common thug, so he can explain himself on line. If he doesn’t we will all know!👺pinnocchio!

Question 1:

 Mrs. Heather Kent director at Trident Trust company told me that the liquidation of my company had not gone through because they did not have a resolution of the directors of the company. 

However 6 months later, she handed me the resolution during a meeting. How could she hand me the resolution 6 months after she had told me that they didn't have it? 

Obviously because she wrote it 6 months later to cover up their misunderstanding.

-      Mr. Bester: Do you have a better explanation?

Question 2:

During my dispute with Trident Trust, Mr. Bester checked the accounts of my company and said they showed a loan. But when they resigned and accounts were delivered to my new service providers they showed nil balance. How could that be possible? 

Obviously because Trident changed the accounts before delivering them to the new service provider in order to cover their mistake.

Mr. Bester: Do you have a better explanation?

Questions 3: 

  On the first day of the trial the Deemster His Honour Corlett asked to see the resolution of the directors. They were not in the bundle and Trident provided them at the end of the second day of the trial.

 After the trial when i checked the resolution paperwork I noticed that they were in a mess. In fact there were 2 sets. There was one incomplete set dated 2008- this was the set that Mrs. Kent had made specially for me. Then there was a second set undated-Why?  

Obviously because on the second day of trial, Trident had to make a new fresh set of resolution papers specially for his Honour

Mr. Bester: Do you have a better explanation?

Mr. Bester, if you have the courage explain. If you have a plausible explanation I will withdraw my blog. Otherwise everybody will know you are a liar and a cheater.

Appleby Global, Advocates in Isle of Man fees and fake Tax Bill

WITHOUT PREJUDICE- This article is highly recommended to parties who already are represented or intend to be represented by Appleby global  advocates in Isle of Man. If you don't wish to be triple charged, pls read this article.

 I lost a case in the courts of justice of Isle of Man and have to pay Appleby Advocates tax bill.

 If they are your advocates you should read below, extracts of my letter regarding Appleby's tax bill to themselves and to the court.

 In brief terms initially  I sued Trident Trust company Isle of Man. (see my blog : Trident Trust company law suit and cover ups).  I was represented by Mr. Chrisotpher Webb at Quinn legal thanks to whom I lost my case. So I sued Mr. Webb at Quinn Legal. He was represented by Mr. Tim Swift at Appleby global Advocates. I lost the case not because of Mr. Swift's merit, but because i was a  foreign litigant in person, and the Defendant was a local 'reputable' professional. so I have to pay Appleby's tax bill now.

My letter to the court: 

" I believe the bill is wrong and I have been overcharged extensively and I have decided to dispute this bill in its entirety.

Original case v Trident Trust Company Isle of Man:

In very brief terms in October 2011, I made 2 claims against Trident Trust company:

. One claim for personal injury   

. One claim for Negligence.        

I lost both claims.

Trident Trust was represented by XXXXX Advocates.  I disputed XXXXX's tax bill for negligence as I believed that I had been overcharged. The court assessed the negligence tax bill and reviewed the personal injury tax bill in order to make sure that there was no duplication, and ordered me to pay what seemed to be reasonable for the negligence tax bill.

Claim v Quinn Legal

Subsequently I sued Quinn Legal Advocates who represented me during the trial against Trident Trust for negligence. So in fact my case against Quinn Legal was the same as my case against Trident Trust. I lost this claim as well.

When I received Appleby's tax bill, I compared it with XXXXXX tax bill which had been assessed in detail by the court and i was astonished to see that Appleby's tax bill for the negligence claim was considerably higher than XXXXXX 2 tax bills put together.As such even if the court orders me to pay 50% of this bill, I will still be overcharged.

Taking into consideration that:

.  XXXXXX had to deal with 2 totally different cases (negligence/personal injury), and

. XXXXX fee earners charge each £50 or £100 more than Appleby's fee earners,

 Appleby's tax bill is unreasonably high.

XXXXX / Appleby:

. Appleby spends about 4 times more time than XXXXX to do exactly the same job/item.Visibly Appleby's speed of work is way below the standard expected from a reasonable law firm. I can only assume that Appleby takes too much time or wastes time or simply is slower than XXXXX.

I should not pay 4 times more because the advocates are too slow.If the court found XXXXX  tax bill and time spent for each item reasonable, I should not pay another law firm more than that.

Obviously another law firm can do exactly the same job spending much less time.

 I beleive Appleby is particularly a slow worker for the following reasons:

.  XXXXX spent in average 1 or 2 minutes for ordinary short emails. Appleby has spent in average 6 minutes for the same type of emails.

. Some items don't even take 1 minute to read. I don't have to pay 6 minute for a job which took a few seconds. All those minutes add up and become a considerable amount of time and money.

. Appleby has spent about:

    - 28 hours for writing skeleton argument,while XXXXX has spent 14 hours for 2 cases,

    - 20 hours for checking a witness statement written by the witness himself, while XXXXX has spent 3 hours for amending a witness statement written by the witness,

    - 41 hours for preparation for trial, while XXXXX has spent 12 hours for 2 cases.

I asked them explanations, but they refused to answer me. I was extremely offended as Appleby implied that my opinion did not count.

I do realise that this case has taken place in the Isle of Man's Court's of Justice of justice and the bill will be assessed by the same. The Defendant and their legal team are 2 reputable law firms from IOM. Whereas i am a foreign litigant in person that nobody knows. 

 I believe that Appleby is trying to take advantage from their reputation within the courts of justice to quadruple charge me. However justice is for everybody equally.

Mr. Barry Short tax adviser at Trident Trust company, isle of Man 👹

WITHOUT PREJUDICE/ This article is highly recommended to parties who count on Mr. Barry Short's tax advise. If you don't wish to find yourself in trouble, pls do read this article.

Mr. Barry Short tax adviser at Trident Trust company, Isle of Man is a dangerous man. He wrote 2 witness statements for me and they were both wrong.

The first one was in the context of my law suit against Trident Trust company- corporate service providers in IOM.. The second one was in the context of my law suit against Quinn Legal advocates- or the advocates who lost my case against Trident Trust.

So the first one was for the proceedings against Trident Trust company, where he works. Naturally he wrote it involuntarily. In this w.s. his opinion about tax matters was totally wrong.

Trident Trust company in Isle of Man provided services for my company during 20 years. It went smoothly until I got a new administrator whose name was Miss Anne- Marie Mc Carthy. At the time I believed Miss Mc Carthy was a total idiot and her conduct was often unreasonable. However now that I look back I realize that she was not such an idiot. In fact her conduct did not fell below the standard expected from a reasonable person in the same circumstances. Her I.Q and her conduct were reasonable for a person in that place, it was me who had high expectations.  I spent 5 years going from one court room to the other in IOM and in the process I found out that the island is full of idiots.As if whoever can not find a proper job in the uk, goes to IOM.

In any case, Miss Mc Carthy made a mess in the management of my company, as a result of which after a long dispute and Mr. Bester, managaing director at Trident Trust endless cover up attempts I ended up suing Trident Trust.

(for details , Pls see my BLOG: Trident Trust company law suit and cover ups)

Had Mr. Short's first w.s. been right, Trident Trust Company would have avoided a law suit against them. I believe Trident should have looked into this negligence, but apparently Mr. Short and Mr. David Bester the managing director of Trident Trust are good chums and they cook together. 

I should say they make terrible fudges.There is something about them which reminds me of 'desperate fishmonger's wives'.

In any case, I was a litigant in person during the proceedings, however I received legal advice on the side from advocates in IOM. One of these advocates, Mr. Charles Coleman at Gaugh Advocates, IOM  told me that a litigant in person would never win there, so shortly before the proceedings i appointed an advocate to represent me during the trial.

Mr. Christopher Webb at Quinn Legal was recommended to me by Mr. Coleman.

I wonder why Mr. Coleman recommended him as Mr. Webb is another idiot and a danger to the public and should be barred from all court rooms. Subsequently I found out that one of his clients had committed suicide because of the appalling way that he represented him during the trial. As a result of this scandal Mr. Webb had left Gaugh Advcoates and started working for Quinn Legal. It is a mystery why QL would take him??

 He represented me in the most appalling way too. However i did not commit suicide, i just got hysterical.

In brief I had prepared my case in detail, but during the trial Mr. Webb surprised me by throwing out all my evidence and using 'his discretion'- as if I didn't count and he knew better. The idiot made a mess, as such I lost my case.

I sued Quinn Legal Advocates for negligence. Although i had been warned that litigant in persons would never win,this time I decided to represent myself. Mr. Webb Quinn Legal took another advocate Mr. Swift at Appleby global IOM to represent them. Somehow the pair reminded me of Laurel and Hardy. So for the moment i call my advocate Hardy and his advocate Laurel.

I think i represented myself brilliantly during the trial, because at the end of the trial Laurel and Hardy looked devastated. Sadly Mr. Coleman's prediction proved to be right as i lost the case. I believe i lost the case because i was a foreign litigant in person and the Defendants were 2 reputable local firms.

(For details pls see my BLOG: Quinn Legal law suit and cover ups)

Once the proceedings against Trident Trust were over, Mr. Barry Short, tax adviser at Trident Trust company Isle of Man spied on me and my correspondence with my legal adviser on line and offered to write a 2nd witness statement for Quinn Legal, 

In other words Trident Trust very generously gave a hand to Mr. Webb thx to whom I had lost the case against them! This selfless act reminded me of the Bible: ' love thy neighbour'. Those people should be true Christians and probably the reason that Mr. Webb can go from one law firm to another leaving a mess behind with poor clients who spend a fortune and then either commit suicide or get hysterical.

Mr. Short read, printed about 300 pages of my correspondence everyday, reported it to his gang, organized a meeting with their solicitor and finally wrote a witness statement to court claiming that I had tried double recovery in a case which had got nothing to do with them. .Now that is many hours of work!

Why would a respectable busy tax adviser waste his valuable time and voluntarily interfere in a case which has nothing to do with him? Is this some sort of admission of guilt and fear of what might happen in the future? Did he want to divert the attention of the court and put me in a bad light? I ponder...

During Trident Trust's  proceedings, he was to give evidence for me. He showed up 2 minutes in small court when the hearing did not take place and was postponed, and gave evidence a few minutes in the High Courts of justice of IOM and charged me £1000 for that. I wonder how much all the time that he has spent everyday spying on us is worth? I am so flattered that he has put himself through all that trouble for me free of charge.

 I proved to the court that his witness statement was "inaccurate", but it was most unfortunate that His Honour did not accept his witness statement because i really wanted to call him to give evidence

After spying on me to this extent, Mr. Barry Short  informed me that he did not wish to enter into any correspondence with me. unbelievable! After all the time that he spent peeping on me everyday... Of course I don't want to disturb him, but if he changes his mind he knows how to contact me to give me his apologies. So does his lawyer Mr. C at C.

Then it got better... The head of the gang Mr. David Bester, managing director at Trident Trust IOM or the head liar whom for the moment I call 'Pinocchio' emailed me and told me that I had cheated and lied to the court. ( i think psychology calls that projection). Anyway I wrote him back and told him everything that i had said about him during the QL proceedings and promised him to put everything on line.I think I scared him off because he did not answer, and certainly did not deny anything. Needless to say that I am a woman of honour, never lie and always keep my word.

As for Quinn Legal who took Mr. Short's w.s., it teaches them a lesson. After everything that i said in court, they should have known better what would be taking a w.s. from that gang!

Quinn legal and their advocates Appleby never asked themselves why would Mr. Short do them such a favour? Why would they trust such people? I suppose they were just happy to find something against me free of charge, but they made themselves look like idiots- some lawyers!  I wonder if the lawyers and Mr. Short were not chums either...inn thaqt island they are all chums..there is no chance against any of them.

For the moment I am very busy, but as soon as i have some time, I want to look in this matter to see how i can sue Mr. Short
