I would like to lodge a complain with regards to Mr Sekoko Noel Maja, working under Mr Patrick Makgato Associates, who is the owner of the law firm. He was my attorney since October 2023. I have been making payments to him as he has been demanding but unfortunately he didn’t do his part. At first he submitted incorrect information to the court and all along I have been paying him. Mr Maja agreed that the matter should step down as he submitted the forms via email and not with the Sheriff, this is after he was paid, so who Is wrong, he knew he was supposed to submit via the Sheriff but still continued with the wrong process, I reported this to the owner of the firm, & they did agree they will discuss a way forward, but they didn’t as I was sent another statement for the 2nd appearance. Mr Maja was an attorney under Letheba Makgato & Associates. Now I need to pay extra costs and money as I have been told that he no longer works for the law firm. All along when he was doing all these wrong things I have been reporting him to Mr Makgato who is the owner of the firm. He has also just realised that some of the payments where being paid to Mr Maja’s personal account, but I don’t think this is fair as it’s an internal matter. Second court appearance, after being paid he never appeared to court, no communication whatsoever. I again went to their law firm, and met with the Mr Makgato, who advised that he’s in court, however when I got there, he was in his office. Again he said we will resolve, nothing was said, no feedback with regards to Mr Maja. Mr Makgato then said he will take over the case or matter, we then app**** for us to have an interview with the Advocate’s Office, which happened after I pushed, went to the Family Advocate’s office to get the date, I had to do and follow up on this process as nothing was done from my attorney’s side. I finally got the date, went to the advocate’s office, unfortunately it didn’t go well as my ex-husband & his lawyers were not informed. I then app**** for another date, which at least happened, got the report, fetched it myself, and forwarded to Mr Makgato, he still charged me for the report, which I don’t understand why as I’m the one who made sure we get what is needed to move forward with the case. Now since we have received a report & submitted to my attorney’s nothing has been done, as I apparently have to sign an affidavit, which for me is a duplicate, as everything that’s on the affidavit is everything that’s In the file, as I went to court to check and try to apply for a date myself as my attorney’s were not doing this. We were waiting for the Family advocate’s report now we have it for over a month but nothing has been done still, up till I went to Letheba Makgoto’s offices yesterday, who is demanding that I make a payment, how do I keep making payments to a service that I’m not getting. I’m reaching out to find help please. This has been an awful, terrible experience. I need my divorce case to be closed and I’m reaching out as I feel that my lawyers have failed me up to date, since 2023. Now I must make payments upfront still, for something that hasn’t been actioned and also I believe I’m still in credit as I’ve paid but the lawyer never came to court and the other time he submitted incomplete information knowing too well it’s incorrect.
