DSC drove me to depression

This is about Mr Charles Owen.

Mr Owen caused my claim to prescribe and caused irreparable damage to my medical negligence case. An absolute nightmare to deal with. ZERO compassion and ZERO people skills.

I remember saying to Mr Owen on the first day we met for a consultation that I wish I had made a recording of the consultations with the doctor I was intending to litigate against, since it would make everything so much easier! I now wish I had made a recording of THIS consultation. All the stereotypes about lawyers you see in TV series and Hollywood films apply.

No attempt has been made to apologise to me or make amends.

From De Rebus, Aug 1, 2019 (http://www.derebus.org.za/client-expectations-and-the-professional-duties-of-a-legal-practitioner/):

"All the consultations and discussions with the client must be recorded in detailed contemporaneous file notes and correspondence must be sent to the client confirming the content of the discussions. While the underlying reasons for the prescription or under settlement of the personal injury claims (not just RAF claims) vary, there are a number of points to be noted by legal practitioners in handling such claims in order to properly manage the expectations of the client.

These includethe prescription date and the implications of a claim prescribing"

Prescription date was never mentioned to me. Claim prescribed in July 2014. First time I ever heard of the concept of prescription was in 2015, after the claim had already prescribed. I heard about it from another attorney that I consulted with, who advised me that the ship had already sailed and that DSC should have informed me of the prescription date.

DSC should provide documentation of the alleged occasion on which I was informed of the prescription date.
