Divorce Proceedings

Frances at CSL has been extremely professional, knowledgeable and on the ball throughout what turned out to be a very long, complicated and complex divorce case. Would highly recommend.

Extremely Understanding

Frances was kind, understanding, honest and helpful during what was an emotionally difficult time. She was always very quick to respond to any questions or document reviews. Being able to have video meetings was great when issues needed to be discussed or points I did not grasp needed additional explaining. Whilst I hope to never need this sort of service again, if I did, I would ask for Frances to be on my side without hesitation.

Matrimonial-Divorce

Clive Lawrence’s calm, concise, consistent and professional nature during my acrimonious divorce over the last 5 and half years kept me grounded albeit a very emotional and stressful time in my life. I cannot emphasise enough my heartfelt gratitude to Clive especially as well, as Frances and the rest of the team at CSL Law for the impeccable service and unwavering commitment & support. Thank you.

Divorce and child matters

My case ended up being a very difficult and long running case and CSL Law were with me all the way. I felt that the advice was excellent and I want to thank Clive and his team. A big thanks goes to my solicitor Frances Kelly who supported me throughout and worked extra hours at some very challenging times. Anyone looking for a firm with solicitors that care about you and are not just fee collectors will not regret choosing CSL Law

I have been going through a really long and drawn out divorce, Clive and Frances have been supportive and helpful throughout the entire process and the level of professionalism is second to none. CSL Law take the time to help you understand the whole process of what you’re going through, they are compassionate and professional, their level of knowledge is second to none.

I’m really grateful for finding Frances Kelly at CSL. She was incredibly knowledgeable, understanding and supportive during a very difficult time. Although she had numerous clients, she always made me feel that I was the only one. She knew me and my situation inside out and was always there to give the best legal advice. I’m so glad she was by my side.

The service provided by Frances and Cleo has been excellent. Frances is a very professional and caring lawyer who has the best interest of her clients (me and my brother), at the heart of her practice. Court proceedings and everything leading up to it can be very stressful. Frances's sensitive and pragmatic approach kept us grounded and fully in the picture. Thanks Frances.

I had the pleasure of working with Frances during a very long and drawn out divorce. She did a fantastic job getting me through what is a very stressful process. She was calm and professional throughout and dealt so well with the other side; their outrageous requests and at times blatant rudeness. Would thoroughly recommend Frances and the team to anyone needing advice in family matters.
