Would highly recommend Prince Family Law
Initially, I needed everything carefully explained and found it very stressful but as I got to know Lisa & Kelsie, I found it much easier. They were always proactive in communicating providing a succinct overview and it was clear what I needed to do. PFL were helpful, considerate and kind. It took much longer than we expected and cost a lot more as my ex-husband was difficult and didn't want to negotiate sensibly. I very much appreciated the effort it took to reach a divorce financial settlement. PFL's fees were money well spent in moving from an initial 10% offer from my ex-husband to almost 50% agreement.

Divorce and Financial Matters
I would like to say that Lisa O'Connor and all her staff have been amazing, I wouldn't have got this strong and be where I am now without them. They are so professional, I felt very at easy and the made the divorce process so much less stressful for me. I will definitely be using them them again in the future for any Legal Advice.
I must say again, Prince Family Law have been amazing, I would recommend them to anyone if they require Legal Advice.

Excellent all-round service
Lisa was recommended to me by my accountant after I was getting nowhere with my previous solicitor who would quite often leave me to work out the best approach rather than advising me what it should be. Lisa outlined the whole process from the start with her no-nonsense approach and within no time we were at our first hearing.
This has not been an easy process by any means. My Ex tried every trick under the sun to make the process as difficult as possible. However, Lisa and her team were fully invested and seemed to feel my pain and frustrations time and time again with the lack of cooperation and games from my ex. We all felt the relief when it was over!
I don't intend to find out if it can be third time lucky for me but if I'm mad enough to fall for it again, I would have no hesitation in using Prince Family Law.

First class, tenacious & reassuringly dependable
I entered the divorce process in a precarious financial position and feeling deeply anxious and concerned for the future of me and my son. Immediately from the first initial consultation it was clear that putting myself in the professional care of Prince Family Law was the right thing to do. Throughout they were communicative, listened and empathised, tenacious in their approach and guided me through every step of the way. It gave me great reassurance throughout my financial dispute matters that Prince Family Law were in my corner. The outcome was better than I could have hoped for in those early days and thanks to Prince Family Law, me and my son are now on a great new start.

Child arrangement order
My case was particularly difficult because of interventions from services surrounding my daughters safety against her father.
I put my trust in Lisa O’Connor and she was on my side the whole way through, understood how stressful and difficult it was dealing with my ex with NPD
Recommend excellent council who supported and fought the battle from start to finish, I wouldn’t have been able to do it without the help of Lisa and the barrister, staff all approachable and efficient.
I would recommend using them
