Dear State Bar of California Complaint Review Unit,
I respectfully request a review my three separate complaints
regarding three separate attorneys that got lumped together as one. I believe
the more serious complaint is the one against Attorney George Milionis and that
lumping him with less serious offenses was a mistake. Perhaps the mistake was
mainly mine for reporting unprofessional behavior of two attorneys from the
same firm at the same time I reported what I believe to be the criminal
behavior of George Milionis.
Mr. Milionis is deliberately abusing the MECHANICS LIENS
process and using the process as his personal tool to avoid detection of
PETERSEN DEAN and HERO FINANCING’S multiple wrong doings and to cover up financial fraud PETERSEN DEAN committed
with HERO FINANCING when they acted as HERO’S unlicensed broker.
As per the enclosed HOMEOWNER’S GUIDE TO PREVENTING
MECHANICS LIENS, there is a LIEN REQUIREMENTS CHECKLIST. Mr. George Milionis
knows full well he did not meet those requirements. He is aware he is not using
MECHANICS LIENS correctly for the purpose that they exist for. MECHANICS LEINS
used to cover up a crime is nefarious and such an attorney should not be
allowed to continue committing financial crimes with impunity.
Mr. Milionis knows that a
job must be completed before he can place a MECHANICS LIEN. In June 2018
Petersen Dean paid a $500 citation (Copy of Citation enclosed) to the CSLB for
not removing and replacing rotten wood, for covering rotten wood with new
shingles, for not doing the work they were hired to do up to standard. That
citation will remain on Petersen Dean’s record for five years and yet Mr.
Milionis shrugs it off as if it is nothing because the fine was laughably small
and he can still leave the work unfinished, still leave rotten wood under the
new shingles, still remove the financing and demand more money than was agreed
for the job and still file Mechanics Liens to cover up the financial fraud.
Petersen Dean and George Milionis flaunt their lawlessness in your face, in the
court’s face, in my face. Mr. Milionis clearly feels he may act with impunity
and that the laws that apply to others do not apply to him and his client
PETERSEN DEAN.
Mr. Milionis knows the CSLB Lien Checklist requires that the
homeowner must accept the improvement
and be using the improvement and he
knows the job was never completed, that the homeowner did not sign off the
completion documents with HERO FINANCING because was never completed in 2016. The
solar panels were never turned on all these years. DWP never inspected the
panels. Both HERO and PETERSEN DEAN agreed to remove the solar panels after
H&R Block indicated that I most certainly would not receive $10,000 tax
credit because as a senior citizen caring for my adult autistic son, we do not
pay taxes. Mr. Milionis decided to withdraw the HERO FINANCING and pretend it
never existed and he proceeded to deliberately misuse the MECHANICS LIEN
process to cover up financial fraud that had become noticed by the homeowner’s
tax preparer Mr. Martin of H&R Block.
I believe many of the actions of Mr. Milionis rise to a
criminal level.
The other two SEPARATE complaints against Mr. Karimzadeh and
Mr. Mendoza, (all three given the same INQUIRY NUMBER) are for unprofessional
conduct and do not rise to a criminal level. Lumping all three separate
attorneys under one INQUIRY served to water down the very serious complaint
against George Milionis. Mr. Mendoza was toying with me. Mr. Karimzadeh was
faking having communication with me just so he could say he tried but I
wouldn’t’ cooperate. He made no real effort to discuss the case with me. Who
sues a person then refuses to communicate with them?
Mr. Karimzadeh was unprofessional and did not make any true
effort to have a legitimate meet and confer with me. He wanted Judge Murphy to
believe true communication was offered but in his emails to me you can clearly
see no real settlement offers were discussed, no mention of the financing was
discussed. Mr. Karimzadeh limited his communication to trying to manipulate me
to give up my right to a trial by jury. He refused to discuss any details of the
case with me. That is not an opinion. That is supported by his emails, our only
means of communication. The emails do not show any good faith discussion of the
case and the financing. Mr. Mendoza asked questions about the incomplete
work….questions he knew the answer to because the CSLB citation made it
clear…and he was not the attorney of record. Mr. Karimzadeh did not discuss the
incomplete work, the rotten wood under new shingles, the removal of the solar
panels or ANY of the details of the financing and the case. He stubbornly
refused to discuss the financing that had vanished into thin air. Where did the
HERO financing go? Why is PETERSEN DEAN allowed to get rid of HERO and call for
$34,000 cash ($10,000 more than agreed) without financing and without finishing
the job?
Mr. Mendoza emailed me until I told him to stop. There was
no reason for him to contact me at all, even once, ever. Mr. Karimzadeh is the
attorney of record and it was his job to tell me anything that Mr. Mendoza told
me. I only answered Mr. Mendoza because I thought he acted like he was taking
over the case for Mr. Karimzadeh. These two men both behaved unprofessionally.
I filled out separate complaints for each attorney because no attorney deserves
to be lumped together and accused of another attorney’s behavior and actions.
Especially when those actions of one individual rise to a criminal level.
I believe George Milionis is a criminal and that he has done
great harm to many homeowners in the State of California. Please separate his
Inquiry from the other two nuisance complaints for attorneys acting
unprofessionally and take a second look at the actions of George Milionis.
It is my opinion that George Milionis should not be
practicing law in the State of California in light of how he has blatantly,
undeniably, deliberately abused the MECHANICS LIENS process. Mr. Milionis is
making up his own MECHANICS LEINS laws as he goes along. He changes the
MECHANICS LIENS law to suit his need and uses it as a weapon to control and
intimidate people, wielding the threat of the MECHANICS LIENS in writing to force signatures from
homeowners long before the job is
finished, YEARS before the job is finished in this case. Mr. Milionis helps
PETERSEN DEAN broker HERO FINANCING without a license and revokes the financing
and demands instant cash payment in full,
more money than agree upon and with no
financing if someone (in my case H&R Block) discovers the property tax financing fraud in
progress.
Please take a second, closer look at this.
Thank you for considering this matter.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Marshall

COPY OF LETTER SENT TO PETERSEN DEAN AS PER CSLB BOOKLET:
FROM: Jennifer E. Marshall
April 9, 2017
VIA CERTIFIED MAIL
TO: Petersen Dean, Inc.
39300 Civic Center Drive, Suite 300
Fremont, California 94538
RE: INVALID LIEN 20170093119
INVALID LIEN
29170093193
Dear Petersen Dean, Inc,
I was not served a copy of the two liens in question. I
purchased copies from the courthouse in El Segundo, California via check and
have the receipt.
Both liens are invalid because they do not adhere to the
strict time frames and lien requirements.
Both liens are invalid because the job was abandoned by you
on November 2, 2016.
The work and necessary repairs were not completed. The
stucco powder you refused to hire Building Cleaning Services or any other
reputable cleaning service to remove has drifted and contaminated the entire
house making it uninhabitable. Numerous contractors interviewed to rebuild the
kitchen refused to enter the house until the stucco powder is remediated as it
made them instantly feel sick. I suffered a bloody nose, sore throat and
burning eyes. My autistic son James developed a severe lung infection. Assurant
Insurance paid for air quality testing of the entire house. The powder you
refused to remove from my son’s room on November 2, 2016 has contaminated the
air vents and the carpeting and is everywhere now. The mold remediation being
done in the kitchen by Assurant was disrupted by your abandonment of the job on
November 2, 2016 and put on hold until you made the air quality safe again,
which you still have not done.
The solar panels are not in use. You agreed in writing to
remove the solar panels after H&R Block examined your figures and
determined that I would not receive ANY of the savings, that it was a tax
credit scam. You did not remove the panels as agreed. The roof is creaking and
you did not fix that or any of the items you previous agreed to repair. A
complete list of everything you didn’t finish and left in disrepair is attached
to the CSLB claim and is being verified by the Contractors State Licensing
Board Case Number: SF20169935.
I hereby request that you immediately remove both of the
invalid liens. If I have to hire an attorney to make you remove the invalid
liens, I am instructed to remind you that I am entitled to be awarded all
reasonable attorney fees.
Sincerely,
Jennifer E. Marshall
