ombudsman complaints.
6 JUN 2019 —
Dear Mr Gavin,
I am writing to you about your recent email to the Office of the Ombudsman concerning your solicitor.
The role of the Ombudsman is to examine complaints from members of the public who believe that they have been unfairly treated by certain public service providers. The public service providers whose actions may be examined by the Ombudsman include Government Departments, Local Authorities, the Health Service Executive (HSE) (and public hospitals and health agencies acting on behalf of the HSE), publically funded third-level education bodies and private nursing homes.
The Ombudsman’s remit does not extend to examining complaints about individual solicitors.
I regret that we cannot be of assistance to you at this time.
Yours sincerely
Elizabeth Culhane
Office of the Ombudsman
Elizabeth Culhane
Do you consider the
Law Society of Ireland public service providers. The law society of Ireland
IGNORE the Fraudulent activities of the solicitors mentioned in this file
https://t.co/4aZSZCUA9N .
Robert B Marren, Tony Henry and Peter D. Jones were all reported to the Law Society of Ireland but they find no fault in their unprofessional activities.
Currently Gearoid Geraghty Solicitor Ballinasloe holds Michael Gavin’s case to council file RANSOM until his fee for Not carrying written instructions is Paid. We are told locally Gearoid Geraghty is fond of the drink.
How about An Garda Siochana Do you Elizabeth Culhaneconsider the An Garda Siochana public service providers. They were informed of the fraudulent activities of the above mentioned Solicitors as were local politicians and the office of the DPP.
Recently Lawrence McManus 083 113 3608 Pettigo, Co Donegal phoned demanding that, Eileen Linney hand over the keys to the house in Dundonnell, Taughmaconnell, Roscommon where Michael Gavin RIP lived all his life.Lawrence McManus claims to be a mediator and told Eileen Linney that he has a right by law to the keys and he proposes to sell the house in March 2019.
Donal Jackson from Athlone who met with Lawrence Mc Manus formed the impression that McManus is/was a member of the IRA.
Mc Manus was expelled from Sinn Fein but we are unsure why.
In a recorded conversation between Lawrenace McManus and Derek McCabe
https://youtu.be/B8dc9T94iVs Monkesland Athlone. McManus claims he has the agreement of all the family to sell the house in Dundonnell, Taughmaconell and claims he has filed the necessary paperwork with the district court. This is a lie because Eileen Linney did not sign any agreement with Lawrence McManus nor did I ever meet with him.
WHY IS THIS NOT INVESTIGATED???
Below is a comment made on petition
Utterly disgraceful that corrupt solicitors, guards and the ombudsmen refuse to investigate the corrupt dealings of these people that robbed michael Gavin of his home, health and farm. These people MUST be sacked, debarred and removed from office permanently. Justice for Michael Gavin now !!!!!
The following instruction were given to GERAGHTY January 2019

IF YOU TOOK THE TIME TO READ THIS FILE YOU WOULD FIND WHAT YOU WANT ” DISTRIBUTION ACCOUNT”
Solicitor instructions
I instruct you to get liens against properties
RN8137F, RN36155F, RN9544F to include the house old house and the lands that were sold at auction to Anne Sanford and Kathleen O’keefe in Dundonell Taughmanconnell.
Currently I am receiving threatening phone calls from a person by the name of Lawrence McManus from Pettigo, Co. Donegal Mobile No 083 113 3608. He claims to be an appointed mediator. He is currently using the farm lands at Dundonnell. He has phoned me demanding the keys to the house and states by law he has the rights to the keys. He stated that he intends to sell the home in March 2019. He claimed to local person in a recorded phone conversation that all the family are in agreement to sell the home and he has filed signed agreement with the district courts. This is a lie as I did not sign any agreement with Lawrence McManus nor did I meet with him.
Their Solicitor Robert B Marren has ignored us numerous times when my late brother and I informed him that
“We wish to advise you that as and from the date you received and have withheld funds from each of us an interest rate of 8% per Month is accruing to the benefit of our accounts plus expenses because of your failure to make good on our legitimate claim.”
We have also written the following to Marren and his Solicitor Peter D Jones and he has ignored us too.
I demand that you provide documentary evidence of the following:
- a)Invoice for Willie Penrose’s TD fee that the estate was charged for.
- b)Proof that Willie Penrose TD BL was in fact paid for his opinion.

- e)Invoice for John Dolan Auctioneer Ballinasloe, Co. Galway
- f)Detailed bill of costs for your fee Robert B. Marren
- g)Detailed Bill of costs for T&N McLynn solicitors Athlone.
Provide answers to the following:
- Why Did you #RobertBMarren refuse to award Michael Gavin the grant money paid down from the dept. of Agriculture? I Mike Gavin am owed over €116,000 for 9 Years unpaid.
- Why did you Robert B. Marren hold on to the funds from the land sale for nearly 2 years?

- Why did you Robert B. Marren threaten 2 of the elderly beneficiaries and coerce them to retain a solicitor to prevent you distributing the estate assets?
- Why did you Robert B. Marren distribute the estate assets speedily over the Christmas period 2014 in the knowledge that 2 of the beneficiaries were actively attempting to retain a solicitor to act on their behalf?
- Why did Tony Henry Tormeys SolicitorsAthlone fail to undertake the instructions given him through John Glynn Solicitors to prevent you Mr. Robert Marren closing in isolation to well-founded objections?
- Why did T & N McLynn Solicitors, Athlonesummon (special)me Mike Gavin and Eileen Linney to the High Court attempting to sell my home along with the farm and failed after three days squandering estate assets with fees in the High Court?
- Why was no bill of costs provided for T & N McLynn Solicitors, Athlone, paid an amount of €38,941a year prior to the distribution of the estate assets?
- Why do you Robert Marren refuse to provide answers to these and other questions?
- Why Have you Robert B. Marren retainedPeter D. Jones Mullingar State Solicitor to represent you?
- Why does Peter D. JonesTHREATEN me Elderly Michael Gavin Not to PEACEFUL Protest outside your Solicitors Office?
- Why should we tolerate Financial Elder Abuse?
As I have advised you in previous correspondence from the date you received and have withheld funds from my widowed sister Eileen Linney and I an interest rate of 8% per Month is accruing to the benefit of our accounts plus expenses because of your failure to make good on our legitimate claim.

“Well written account of the injustice perpetrated against an innocent man
aided and abetted by the Irish legal profession to steal this elderly man’s
money from him. The solicitor should be charged and jailed.‖
“This is a very sad case of an elderly man being cheated by the law. It’s very
detailed and definitely worth a read, cases like this abound in Ireland, where
people will behave in truly shameful manner where land is concerned.‖

depend very much on where you reside on the social scale #vinb‖
―This story highlights the blue-shirt mentality of current regime. People
should read it and stand up against FG cowards and Bullies.‖
―This type of practice is unacceptable and must undergo a radical review and
renewal. Irish people, be they farmers or academics (one doesn’t exclude the
other) trust these kind of professions to represent their clients’ interests. In this
case it seems like that trust was exploited for personal gain.‖
―This is Disgusting Travesty of Justice these Solicitors should be disbarred
from Practicing for this ABUSE of their Position they are Traitors to our
People Greedy disgusting Cretins who should be arrested & Jailed for their
terrible ABUSE of this Man! WE are watching from Afar & We promise you
we will get Justice for this Man!‖
―This is the saddest story I have heard in all my fifteen years in Ireland. it is
sad because it predicts the future and yet no-one cares because you are asleep.
You Irish have made for yourself a bed of nails through your gutlessness and
apathy. And let hell skelp it into ye.‖

someone is not part of our culture. What goes around comes around I’ve seen
it happen before, maybe not this generation but the next. A curse on them.‖
―Irish law society closed ranks apparently facilitating the denying of justice to
an elderly farmer.‖
―Hi Mike I have just read the whole story from beginning to end an utter
disgrace very sad totally injust . can’t find the share button. I do hope that
things will go right for him. The expense so far is unreal‖
―What else should be expected in Ireland today. The real issue is too many
have the attitude of I’m all right jack so f*** you‖
―Cases like this one rely on secrecy, sharing on social media may deter future
fraud occurring within families regarding the beneficiaries of a will, it’s far
too common.‖
―As an Irish American dealing with a case with similarities there is no justice
in this country for seniors…it should be reported in the media in the states. I
will be doing so, have Sean Hannity get involved on Fox news he hates
injustice!!‖
―the mob in the legal world have no honour, respect or fairness its all about
..money‖
―its a disgrace what has being done to this man and its theft ,,, so robert
marren should be charged with theft , and its shame on tony mclynn solicitors
for taking this case and for their huge fees they charged which is also theft,
corruption at its best under the law‖
―The Lawless Society are hell bent on benefitting themselves through
legalised theft. Hiding themselves behind the Law and corrupting it, yet they
cannot be tried for their crimes, because they run the courts.‖
Mairead Gallagher
How shocking.! This poor gentleman suffering as a result of white collar corruption. The law Society are self regulating and all you can do is expose this into a public arena where they are named and shamed! It’s a total travesty and hopefully this nasty Solicitor will be exposed to such a degree where it cannot be ignored!
It’s the only way Society can change. These individuals have been protected in the past, but they should not continue in being allowed to be a self regulating body. There should be an independent body / group set up who monitors complaints made against these practicing Solicitors who engage in lies, fraud and corruption!.
Mike Real
The Solicitor Marren should have gone before a Judge instead of squandering the Dept. of Agriculture Grants and favouring the wishes of Michael Gavin’s devious sisters Kathleen o Keefe and Anne Sanford.
Paul Lally
Its time to start executing solicitors barristers and judges that flout the law and rob people of their hard earned money. If any of the above steal 10,000 they should get jail, If any of the above steal 100,000 they should be castrated first then jailed for life, If any of the above steals land of an elderly man they should get instant death by 1000 cuts. This is the law of my land I don’t know about yours.
