Initial Phone CAll

I was called by one of the First Response Advisors and the phone manner was polite and courteous and informative. Letting me know one of the solictors would be looking at my claim and then getting in contact within a suitable 24-hour timeframe to go through what happens next and any costs involved. Great thanks to William.

Gavin and his team have finalised my divorce and the effort and professionalism that they did it with was unbelievably brilliant they took all the stress out of the whole process and worked very hard to get the results they got all phone calls and emails were responded to very quickly it was unbelievable how they took care of the finest details in making sure the case was prepared and presented in such a professional manner I was using another law firm at the beginning of my divorce and was really not happy with them but once I'd sat down with Gavin and his team it was amazing how quickly they turned everything around I am so grateful for what they have done and how they turned what was an absolutely hopeless situation that I was in to where I ended up is amazing walking into Gavin's office was definitely one of the best things I've ever done in my 58 years of life
Thank you Gavin and your team

My initial contact with CEL was speaking to Paul Carson who was very patient in listening to my situation, was very clear in the information he required and very reassuring when explaining the role of CEL and how they may help me. I would assume most people go to CEL following a bad experience so it certainly helps having someone like Paul as your guide to hopefully some resolution.
