Lauren Hanley-Brady Scott McMillan San Diego Attorneys - Unethical


Lauren Hanley-Brady San Diego attorney was finally hired by Scott McMillan La Mesa, after a year of searching for a job. Also known as Lauren Brady, who lives with her parents, has been on a consistent losing streak. Scott McMillan, is not only a San Diego attorney who was implicated in a child molestation case, see report filed in San Diego Superior Court Case No. 37-2017-0036344, but also a law school dean of his own law school – McMillan Academy of Law. The McMillan Academy of Law was admonished by the State Bar of California in a recent report it was, in essence, a fraud where its law library was not updated in years, only had three students in 12 years, and none of the students graduated. In fact, the law school is operated out of the small office The McMillan Law Firm near the train tracks in east San Diego. 

You need to look for it since the building it does not have a sign. That’s correct – a law school with outdated books, no graduates, and no sign. La Mesa attorney Scott McMillan was forced to disclose on the law school website, "We have had one student take the First Year Law Students' Examination and that student passed. This is the basis for the 100% pass rate thus far. As of yet, no students have graduated from the Academy." (emphasis added) Page 3, http://www.bppe.ca.gov/annual_report/2013/41500915_pfs.pdf

In a pending case, Attorney and Dean Scott McMillan is very well known by San Diego defense attorneys – as a looser. Lauren Brady is able to gain a similar reputation if she follows in the same footsteps of San Diego attorney Scott McMillan’s former associate, Michelle Volk. San Diego attorney Michelle Volk and Scott McMillan are in federal court on fraud allegations. In Brightwell v. McMillan LawFirm, APC The et al (3:16-cv-01696), California Southern District Court, Filed: 06/30/2016, it was alleged not only had Scott McMillan suffered from drug use, but also committed fraud. In a different case Scott McMillan did not oppose sanctions where it was alleged he lied to the court to venue shop. See sanctions motion here.

More recently, in 2017, San Diego attorney Scott McMillan lost a lawsuit against the ATF. Of course, he appealed, and a chief judge called his lawsuit “silly” and “not based on principle.” Here is the video clip of the judge demeaning Scott McMillan attorney  San Diego (seated):
