Dear Mr Mackell,
RE: COMPLAINT RELATING TO LAWYER AOIFE McSHANE LL.B AT McSHANES
LAW FIRM (NEWRY)
In connection with this complaint, and as was the case with my complaint
of January 28th 2017 relating to lawyers Ms Louise Moley LL.B and Mr
Ronan McGuigan LL.B, I wish you to know that, for a number of reasons, I
have done my best to try to avoid making it. Mindful, for example, of
the suggestion
"It is in the interest of both you and the
Solicitor that you try and resolve any outstanding concerns about the
nature of the work between you", in Section 9 of the Northern
Ireland Law Society CCFO "SOLICITORS' IN-HOUSE COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE
FORM", I have delayed writing this letter to you in the hope of finding
some means of resolving my outstanding concerns and difficulties,
without formally complaining to the Law Society of Northern Ireland.
However, and despite my best efforts to keep Ms McShane and her
colleagues at McShanes Law Firm informed and updated regarding the
several outstanding "legal, medical, financial and social" difficulties
that I continue to struggle with, I have not heard anything at all from
anybody at McShanes since the letter I received from Mr Paul J.O'Kane
LL.B dated
November 7th 2016. Please find enclosed copy marked
Item #1. A scanned copy of this letter can also be viewed at the
following www location:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/McShaneLawFirmNewry/7November2016/Letter.htm
My most recent attempt to communicate with Ms Aoife McShane and her
colleagues at McShanes Law Firm can be viewed in the email I copied to
them on March 23rd 2017, which was addressed primarily to Ms Alyson
McBride at Helm Housing in Belfast. Please find enclosed a copy of this
email which I have marked
Item #2.
There is a slightly
edited copy the email in question at:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/HelmHousing/23March2017/Gmail.html
and, an unedited "Gmail PDF" version of the same email at:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/HelmHousing/23March2017/Gmail.pdf
Please find enclosed my completed
CCF1 Law Society Complaints Form,
which together with related notes consisting of five A4 sheets I have
attached to the CCF1 Form, and marked the combination
Item #3.
Within the coming few days I will place a copy of this letter on the www
system which, should you wish to use them, will hopefully make it easier
for you to access the several www links associated with this letter. I
will place the copy at the following www location:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/NorthernIrelandLawSociety/8April2017/RegisteredLetter.htm
If there is any further information in connection with this complaint
that you need from me, please let me know and I will do my best to
provide you with it as soon as I can.
It would be much appreciated if you, or one of your colleagues at the
Northern Ireland Law Society, could please let me have an
acknowledgement of receipt for this letter.
Yours sincerely,
William Finnerty.

NOTES ATTACHED TO
NORTHERN IRELAND LAW SOCIETY COMPLAINT FORM
DATED APRIL 8th 2017. SUBMITTED BY WILLIAM FINNERTY.
=== === ===
RE: PART 1 OF
NORTHERN IRELAND LAW SOCIETY CCF1 COMPLAINT FORM - Your personal details
NOTE #1 (RE: My telephone number):
Although I do have a telephone number, I only use it for outgoing calls.
This is because I wish to avoid receiving unwanted and unhelpful calls
from people who seem to have little or no knowledge or understanding of
the chronic PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) I am suffering from. I
have found that such people are inclined to say things to me in
conversations which exacerbate, sometimes in major ways, the symptoms of
this PTSD medical condition.
Evidence of the now chronic PTSD condition I am suffering from can be
viewed in the attached copy of the
"To Whom It May Concern Letter"
dated October 28th 2005 from
Dr Michael McCavert GP, who
used to be my GP when I lived in Omagh. Enclosed please find a copy of
this letter which I have marked “Item #11”. Using two registered
letters, I have tried to get an updated version of Dr McCavert's October
28th 2005 "To Whom It May Concern" letter by writing to my present GP,
Dr John Radcliffe, at the Meadowlands Surgery in Newry. Unfortunately,
and for reasons unknown to me, I have so far not received any reply of
any kind from anybody connected with the Meadowlands Surgery to these
two letters. Scanned copies of the two registered letters sent by me to
Dr Radcliffe and his colleagues at Meadowlands Surgery, dated April 26th
2016 and August 1st 2016, can be viewed at the www locations provided
just below:
Registered Letter #1 (April 26th 2016):
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/MeadowlandsSurgery/26April2016/RegisteredLetter.htm
Registered Letter #2 (August 1st 2016):
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/MeadowlandsSurgery/1August2016/RegisteredLetter.htm
I feel I should also inform you that on account of the fact that I have
a number of unresolved legal problems, Newry Daisy Hill Hospital
Consultant Psychologist Dr Elizabeth McMonagle has informed me, on May
17th 2016, that I can not be provided with "talking therapy" (of the
kind I have been seeking for years) for the chronic Post Traumatic
Stress Disorder I have now been suffering from for the past 17 years or
so. The reason for this, according to Dr McMonagle, and assuming I
understood her correctly, is that there is some kind of hospital “rule”
which prevents the
"Daisy Hill Hospital Support and Recovery Team"
from providing such therapy for individuals who, like myself, are
struggling with unresolved legal problems.
Although Dr McMonagle
never said so, my suspicion is that she was -- in reality -- almost
certainly referring to "unresolved legal problems" connected with the "wrong
doings" of "public officials and bodies" of the kind Dr
Michael McCavert GP has referred to in his October 28th 2005 "To Whom It
May Concern" referred to above. Additional information relating
to this ban can be found in an email dated May 26th 2016 that I sent to
Northern Ireland First Minister Arlene Foster LL.B, MLA, a Gmail PDF
copy of which can be viewed at the following www location:
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/FirstMinisterArleneFosterMLA/26May2016/Email.pdf
You may wish to note that lawyer Aoife McShane and a number of her
colleagues at McShanes Law Firm were among those the email at the www
address just above was copied to, and that I sent it to them partly in
the hope that she, or one of the several other professional lawyers
included on the "Cc" list of the email, might provide me with some legal
advise on the legality of the ban on "talking therapy" referred to in
the paragraph just above.
However, as I have not received any
offers of help from anybody at McShanes Solicitors regarding this
matter, I feel forced to speculate that there must also be some kind of
"legal profession ban" which is preventing all members of the legal
profession from discussing the "wrong doings" of "public
officials and bodies" with people like myself who are trying to
expose the public official "wrong doers", and to have them brought to
justice.
With further reference to members of the medical profession, my
understanding is that the decisions relating to the "ban" which Hospital
Consultant Dr Elizabeth McMonagle informed me about on May 17th 2016 --
a "ban" which I have long suspected is almost certainly
completely unlawful, and the product of some major form of
systemic
corruption -- also involved Newry's Daisy Hill Hospital
Consulted Psychiatrist Dr Mark McCauley, who I had two consultations
with at Daisy Hill Hospital some months before May 17th 2016.

RE: PART 4 OF
NI LAW SOCIETY CCF1 COMPLAINT FORM - Nature of Work and relevant issues
NOTE #3 (RE: the kind of legal work involved):
I initially went to see Aoife McShane LL.B on March 7th 2016 for the
specific purpose of trying to quickly get an injunction to prevent my
former landlord -- Mr Patsy Heaney of Clanrye Properties in Newry --
from "disposing" of belongings of mine, which I had reason to believe Mr
Heaney might be on the verge of doing.
In order to take me on as a client, Ms McShane explained that I would
need to sign a legal paper enabling her and McShanes Solicitors to take
over from McGuigan and Malone Solicitors. Although I signed the legal
paper enabling Ms McShane to take over from Ms Louise Moley LL.B and the
now closed down law firm of McGuigan and Malone Solicitors, Ms McShane
never did take over my case from McGuigan and Malone Solicitors. It is
also the case that I never got back any of the belongings of mine
referred to in the paragraph immediately above.
More detailed information on "the relevant issues" can be found in the
texts of the enclosed items marked “
Item #1”, “ Item #4”, ”Item #5”,
”Item #6”, ”Item 7”, ”Item #8”, and
“Item #10”.
===
As you will know, Ms Louise Moley LL.B and Mr Ronan McGuigan LL.B are
the subject of a closely related complaint to this one, which I made to
The Law Society of Northern Ireland earlier this year. Further
information relating to this earlier complaint of mine can be found in
the texts of the two registered letters dated January 28th 2017 and
February 23rd 2017 registered letters at the following two www
locations:
1)
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/NorthernIrelandLawSociety/28January2017/ScannedRegisteredLetter.htm
and
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/NorthernIrelandLawSociety/23February2017/Letter.htm
===
At this stage, the overall legal work in question requires the use of
what I see as basic principles and issues relating to the general
contents of the
CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION
(and other similar legislation involving
human rights law),
which, in the case of the
EU CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS,
came fully into force in December 2009 I understand. For several
years now, I have been particularly interested in, and desperately in
need of, the very basic human rights principles of the
"Right to an
effective remedy and to a fair trial", and
"of being advised,
defended and represented", in the manner stated in the text of
Article 47 of this EU Charter. As I feel sure you will already know, the
full text of Article 47 reads as follows:
"Right to an effective remedy and to a fair trial
Everyone whose rights and freedoms guaranteed by the law of the Union
are violated has the right to an effective remedy before a tribunal in
compliance with the conditions laid down in this Article.
Everyone is entitled to a fair and public hearing within a reasonable
time by an independent and impartial tribunal previously established by
law. Everyone shall have the possibility of being advised, defended and
represented.
Legal aid shall be made available to those who lack sufficient resources
in so far as such aid is necessary to ensure effective access to
justice."
=== === ===
NOTE #4 (RE: When did you last instruct your solicitor?):
The last email I copied to Aoife McShane LL.B and her colleagues at
McShanes Solicitors, for the purpose of "instructing" them --
"instructing" as in "trying to make them aware and to keep them
updated", regarding my ongoing set of legal, medical, financial and
social difficulties, and in the hope that they might provide me with
some help -- was sent to them on March 23rd 2017. A copy of that email
is included with this letter, please see
"Item 2" enclosed, and
there is also a copy of it at the following www location.
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/HelmHousing/23March2017/Gmail.html
=== === ===
NOTE #5 (RE: How are you paying for the work?):
I signed legal aid papers during my March 7th 2016 meeting with Aoife McShane which, at the time -- and with due regard for the very clear
"legal aid" reference in the text of Article 47 of the
CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION reproduced above
in NOTE #3 --
I believed would have enabled her to receive legal
aid payments for the legal work I needed doing, subject (I assume) to
approval by one or more of the three separate legal aid schemes which I
understand are in use at the present time in Northern Ireland.
=== === ===
RE: PART 6
OF NI LAW SOCIETY CCF1 COMPLAINT FORM - Your complaint
NOTE #6 ("The Facts"):
Most of the basic facts of my case with McShanes Solicitors are, I
believe, set out in the texts of the three registered letters of mine
dated:
1) April 4th 2016 (
"Item #8" enclosed);
2) October 12th 2016 (
"Item #9" enclosed); and,
3) October 31st 2016
(Item # 10 enclosed).
Copies of the three registered letters referred to above can also be
viewed at the following www locations:
1)
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/McShaneLawFirmNewry/4April2016/RegisteredLetter.htm
2)
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/McShaneLawFirmNewry/12Oct2016/RegisteredLetter.htm
3)
http://www.humanrightsireland.com/NorthernIrelandLawSociety/31October2016/RegisteredLetter.htm
=== === ===
NOTE #7 ("Reasons for your Complaint"):
1) My former landlord (Mr Patsy Heaney) has never returned my belongings
to me, and I would still like them back.
2) McShanes Solicitors have not taken over my case from the now
closed-down McGuigan Malone Solicitors, as Aoife McShane gave me to
understand she was definitely going to do during my meeting with her on
March 7th 2016.
3) I am still without "legal representation", and I still do not know
where I can find "legal representation" of the kind that supports, in
practical ways, the basic Article 47 set of legal principles I have
reproduced in NOTE #3 above.
=== === ===
NOTE #8 ("Solution you would prefer"):
The solutions I would prefer are these:
1) That, at this stage, my former landlord (Mr Patsy Heaney) be
challenged in a court of law regarding his overall set of responses to
the murder attempt on my life, which he witnessed from a distance of
just a few yards, in bright daylight; on the afternoon of December 16th
2015;
and,
2) That I be provided with the services of a professional lawyer who a)
recognises the factual existence of Article 47 of the
CHARTER OF
FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, and b) is willing and able
to use it on my behalf for the purpose of providing me with "an
effective remedy" for the large and steadily growing set of legal,
medical, financial and social difficulties I am at present struggling
with, and which I have already been struggling with for a period of
several years now.
