NGL Attorneys a let down to single mothers

I sold my jointly owned property with my ex partner(co-owner) and NGL were the transferring attorneys. The co-owner put forward some bogus claim that all proceeds were due to him. Without facts, ignoring their legal obligation to me as their client and even after the Judge at the high court struck the urgent high court application made by the co owner to stop NGL from paying out the proceeds as per the legal agreements and the signed mandate held by them, NGL went ahead and provided an undertaking to the c-owner they would not release my share of the proceeds. They could have ended this dispute much sooner by entering an interpleader summons which costs them nothing, but their very condescending director said he would not be doing any such thing. They effectively aided the co-owner in leaving my children and I homeless and to date do not bother to respond to my communication. Their attitude toward me was that of me being a nobody while the co-owner, who gave the impression of having tons of money to throw around, was treated like a VIP. Utterly disgusted and horrified when those who have the power to ensure justice misuse it.

Good day Michelle

The content of your complaint is noted.

As per our senior director/s communications with you we await further instructions from the High Court and Law Society before any payments may be made.

Reviewer Update
Your senior directors have not responded to my last communication. Please do not mislead the public with lies. In addition this is not a complaint, this is advice to the public (those in particular who are not favoured with having money to waste) to avoid using NGL attorneys if they are relying on the sale of the proceeds from their OWN home. They could end up homeless with their children due to their lack of ethical and moral behaviour. NGL have not given any reason why they refuse to enter an interpleader summons. They are simply happy to hold my money and charge me an admin fee for this, when I gave no such instruction.

Just to clarify: The joint seller could end up homeless with their children due to NGL's lack of ethical and moral behaviour.
