11 Oak Street: The True Story of the Abduction of a Three Year Old Child and its Appalling Lifetime Consequences

11 Oak Street is the true story of how the exclusive Queen's bankers, Coutts & Co sent two large cashiers cheques to a Urie Walsh, Graham Cook's lawyer in San Francisco,the envelope had the wrong address on it (11 Oak Street instead of 1111 Oak Street).The cashier's cheques were to pay Urie Walsh's legal fees and the mortgage on a condominium in Pacific Heights, San Francisco. When the envelope did not turn up, Coutts wired replacement funds and Coutts & Co did not tell Graham Cook of their mistake. Then, later by chance, the original envelope containing the two cashiers cheques turned up at Urie Walsh's office. Urie Walsh then deposited the lost and knowingly cancelled cashier's cheque into his trust account and as a consequence some of Urie Walsh's trustee cheques bounced. To cover his tracks he told all and sundry that Graham Cook had bounced a cheque on him. Urie Walsh then illegally sued Graham Cook, who was living in England at the time, at the San Francisco Municipal Court for money later proved not owed. As to further make life difficult for Graham Cook, Urie Walsh was serving moving papers to an address that Graham Cook did not live at. Urie Walsh also, again illegally, obtained orders to sell the condominium in Pacific Heights, San Francisco, jointly owned by Graham Cook and his former wife, using an illegally obtained Deed of Trust and Promissory note. This set off a chain of events that led to the abduction by Graham Cook's former wife of their three-year-old child from Bristol, England, to the Republic of Ireland to Napa, California, via San Francisco. Graham Cook's former wife's intention was to try and stop Urie Walsh from selling the condominium in Pacific Heights. At the time of the abduction Graham Cook's former wife was living with Graham Cook in England with both of them trying to reconcile. Although Urie Walsh was no longer Graham Cook's lawyer he subsequently appeared in Graham Cook's divorce action telling the judge Graham Cook had bounced a cheque on him thereby making the divorce judge hostile to Graham Cook. As the to condominium that went into foreclosure it was subsequently bought by the then Chairman of the State Bar of California Ethics Committee. When Graham Cook successfully sued Urie Walsh in the course of the proceedings, it turned out Graham Cook did not owe Urie Walsh any money whatsoever and in fact Urie Walsh had been overpaid. Every single thing Urie Walsh did from the day Graham Cook met him turned out to have been illegal and in direct violation of every applicable of the California State Bar rule. The reader will be astounded as to the lengths that Urie Walsh and his legal malpractice lawyers went through to unsuccessfully try and defeat Graham Cook's legal malpractice action. After the abduction when Graham Cook saw his former wife at the San Francisco Superior Court the first words she said to Graham Cook were If you had not bounced a check on your lawyer none of this would have happened.
