Mr. Dalrymple charged me 2 times for a re-billing fee in the amount of 550.00 each,<br />
dated 31" January 2008 and 28 March 2008 for a total of 5100.00. Mr. Dalrymple did not send<br />
me any statements from L8 October 2007 when I retained his services, until he sent me the<br />
statement for 30 April 2008. When I talked to Mr. Dalrymple on 27 May 2008, he stated that he<br />
needed more money and informed me that he had been sending my monthly statements to an<br />
old address. (l have been living in my home from August2007 until present. Before I retained<br />
Mr. Dalrymple for the second time). I them made a 54000.00 paymento him on 29 May 2008.<br />
During this seven month time frame, I have seen and talked to Mr. Dalrymple a minimum of 34<br />
times (according to his statements) with no mention of needing more money or that I have not<br />
responded to any of his statements that shows I owe any money to him.<br />
Going by Mr. Dalrymple's monthly statements and his signed receipts. I paid him a total<br />
of 513,000.00 from l-8 October 2007 until his death. He billed me for 910,888.55 and a refund<br />
was sent to my new lawyer Bonnie Lam in the amount of S1-,070.00. That leaves a balance on<br />
my account of S1041.45 that I have never received.<br />
Amount paid: 513,000.00<br />
Amount billed: 5L0,888.55<br />
Amount refunded: S1,070.00<br />
Total: 511,958.55<br />
Account balance: S1,0+L.+S<br />

Also it was noted in the "CLIENT SECURITY FUND INVESTIGATIVE REPORT" dated24<br />
October 20L2 that I waited over 2 years after Mr. Dalrymple's death before filing a claim. Due<br />
to the delay in transferring my files and refund to my new lawyer and realizing that I was<br />
missing money from Mr. Dalrymple. I reported it to the <strong>Oregon</strong> <strong>Bar</strong> as soon as I became aware.<br />
I am not blaming Mr. Dalrymple nor have I ever said that he did not work on my behalf.<br />
All I know is my total balance was not returned to me along with 2 re-billing fees that I did not<br />
know about. All l'm asking for is what l'm due. Mr. Dalrymple was a good lawyer and I believe a<br />
good friend. I do not want to ruin his name. ljust want what's owed to me.<br />
Thank you very much,<br />
