Bailey And Wyant PLLC reviews and complaints

Blogger to Challenge and Reforge West Virginia Internet Law after Civil case filed by former Bailey and Wyant PLLC attorney Robert P. Martin.

Toronto/Ontario, Canada | Currently a defendant in a defamation lawsuit, Norman Alderman writes a blog, The Pocahontas Commentator. Since 2011 it has put an unflattering lens to political, police and judicial goings on in Pocahontas County, WV.

“The Internet is a wide frontier with vast capacity to challenge traditional bullies and other privileged interests, ” said Jensen. “Norman is so much more than a blogger. He’s a defender of democratic participation and an evangelist for free speech.”

Cited in the lawsuit by plaintiffs Robert P. Martin and Charles R Bailey, Alderman is accused of defamation expressed over the Internet. Bloggers everywhere and organizations dedicated to protecting Internet freedom watch with interest, weighting this case as an important test of inadequate and outdated WV statutes.

In principle, the affidavit filed against Alderman is invalid given WV statutes do not directly address defamation by Internet blog. For instance, Martin, who stood unsuccessfully in the 2012 runoff for Pocahontas County Prosecuting Attorney, relies on antiquated law to pursue Alderman for interfering with democratic process via publication.

Remarkably, in his affidavit Martin seems to blame Alderman’s blogging observations for his election loss. However, the statute Martin invokes refers only to newspapers and some periodicals; a blog is neither and therefore has no status under current WV laws related to election process interference.

Further, Martin and Bailey have not complied with due process as set out under Internet defamation protocol in advance of filing their affidavit. Modern protocol requires a formal request under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) before other legal avenues can be pursued. To-date, there is no record of such a request from either Martin or Bailey as regards their complaint against Alderman.

Appointed Assistant Prosecutor for the county in February 2013, Martin’s affidavit is filed as a private citizen with co-plaintiff Bailey, managing partner in Bailey and Wyant PLLC. Their affidavit also cites third party blogs posted by “Jim Jenson” [sic] and reposted by Alderman. In his own posts Jensen treats his longstanding and comprehensively documented disputes with Martin and his former law firm Bailey and Wyant.

Recently the Bailey and Wyant firm formally requested through DMCA the takedown of Jensen’s blog posts regarding his dispute with them.These requests were denied under the Act as Jensen’s posts were deemed appropriate for the Internet and, therefore, not defamatory. By extension, they are not defamatory in The Pocahontas Commentator.

“At its heart this lawsuit seeks to strike a free speech chill, ” said Jensen. “Anyone interested in preserving Internet freedom and free speech should follow and support Norman Alderman’s cause. It concerns us all.”

My story is about a question, why over the last four years have I been hunted by one of the Largest and Oldest West Virginia law firms. The firm Bailey and Wyant PLLC of Charleston WV. Connected to the Governors office and widely used through WV Government offices across the state the old boys club.

"Bailey & Wyant, PLLC offers a broad array of legal services to a diverse client base.We prioritize each client's unique goals and circumstances in every facet of the representation and strive to exceed expectations by consistently delivering effective, dynamic representation."

I did have a relationship with Bailey and Wyant PLLC for legal representation. Bailey and Wyant PLLC did fail to adequately represent me. That is not my complaint or the story which has little news value.

Another client mad at a law firm.

My wife died in Central America of a brain aneurysm. She was hospitalized and the American Health Care provider denied all coverage leaving me with a 260, 000 bill and a supreme court case in this central american country.

Bailey and Wyant PLLC through one of there attorney’s had power of a attorney for my wife and I in the US.

Bailey and Wyant PLLC attempted to defend me through claimed legal filings in the us against the health provider based out of Miami.

Evidence clearly shows on Bailey and Wyant PLLC letter head from there firm that they did not complete the claimed filings as indicated through various forms of written communication.

So what’s the crime what’s my damages, what is the story? A stupid law firm many exist.

Shortly after finding out Bailey and Wyant PLLC failed to represent me and my choice not to lend a member of the firm $125, 000 for a land deal this attorney in the firm had become involved in. Bailey and Wyant PLLC had me thrown in the 3rd worse prison in the world in Central America for 3 weeks and 4 days.

At the same time of my detention without charges Bailey and Wyant PLLC had my bank accounts frozen in this country for claimed money laundering. I was released and the claimed money laundering charges were as well dismissed.

Upon my release from prison Bailey and Wyant PLLC hunted me by posting a non Government endorsed wanted Poster for me. Offering a cash bounty for information about me.

Created Facebook accounts and various web sites to discredit me. A strange series of events considering if you the reporter or editor were to contact Bailey and Wyant PLLC they would say we do not know this person or I am a Internet Terrorist if they would respond at all. Best to say nothing and to keep this anonymous stalking of me going.

My Attorney’s have narrowed my case to motive and reason. A complicated case, international in scope, jurisdictional issues, the list goes on. The one question is why does Bailey and Wyant PLLC still anonymously hunt me?

By anonymous my on-line explanation of my situation with Bailey and Wyant PLLC has received notice. Bailey and Wyant PLLC attacked sites with my information. Without success.

Bailey and Wyant PLLC hired a dedicated staffer to create blogs and other on-line means to block my content from appearing under there search terms for the firm. There life of being anonymous as a request to shut down my blogs or remove content were denied. The requests were filed by the firm of Bailey and Wyant PLLC.

Take them to court has always been the other question asked by reporters? Bailey and Wyant PLLC has blocked me from finding an Attorney in WV to represent me. My Attorney’s in Central America can present my case to a potential attorney in WV interest is shown. Use my name and they never respond back.

Health insurance case with Bupa in Florida.

Attempting to find legal council for civil actions against the company that declined all health care coverage for my wife. Interest, add my name interest ends. One law firm in Florida stated we do not do criminals. Why am I the Criminal? Bailey and Wyant PLLC on this widely promoted wanted poster of myself claimed I was wanted for murdering my wife.

Financial management of my wife’s estate and trust was empowered to Bailey and Wyant PLLC after my wife died. Various business dealings I maintained after my wife’s death included a 501 (C) NGO. Legal documents indicate I was a director and a share holder. Recently Bailey and Wyant PLLC shut down the 501 (C) without notice or my involvement in the due process. A Delaware Corp.

The attorney that claimed to handle all my matters has as Bailey and Wyant PLLC explains, retired from the firm. Strange when you check the address for this attorneys office of retirement it is the public library?

Leaving little left of my history with the firm if any.

Bailey and Wyant PLLC has also attempted to keep me financially restrained for the last three year. Important financial records all my wife and my past tax returns are being held hostage by the accounting firm that handled my wife and my tax returns in the US and there Attorney.

Bailey and Wyant PLLC over saw a Carocom Corp which I owned in Central America. Bailey and Wyant PLLC owned a 1% share common legal business practice. For three years I have been attempting to close the Corp and liquidate my assets. The money sits. Bailey and Wyant PLLC attempts to block this process without being directly involved.

Moving large sums of money out of Central America has process and without cooperation by Bailey and Wyant PLLC time passes by.

I have a media strategist as part of this group of people that keeping asking the same question. Why is Bailey and Wyant PLLC doing this? I am a nobody. What do I know that I do not know I know about Bailey and Wyant PLLC is always the question?

I know they ran money through the 501 (C) corp, through wealthy friends in WV to make donations for TAX benefits.

I know they Bailey and Wyant PLLC took a commission out of each donation which is Illegal. Who cares at the IRS in Fresno CA about a WV law Firm’s business dealing outside of WV.

The 501 (C) I was to have an interest in was modeled after the NGO “Friends of Belize”. Formed by Bailey and Wyant PLLC attorney Robert P. Martin who established the 501 (C).

Friends of Belize raised over 25 million dollars during its day. Which the day for Friends of Belize ended in 2009. The same time I was thrown in Prison.

The attorney that had me thrown in Prison for Bailey and Wyant PLLC is now on the board of directors for the new Friends of Belize.

Side bar, this is the same attorney Bailey and Wyant PLLC was to defend me from in my health insurance matter. His name is Godfrey Smith the past attorney general of this country of Belize.
