I highly recommend David Leah’s company. I was scammed and lost my self esteem. However, when I took my case to David, he completely impressed me with professionalism and I regained my peace of mind.

Speaking to Callum Williams felt like a relief.

Callum Williams rang me straight away, after my enquiry. He clearly went through all of the questions on the enquiry form with me and was empathetic. He was upfront about the fees and put my mind at rest. To be able to hand over alot of the stress, after a month of dealing with the banks, to CEL instantly felt like a relief. Thank you.

Chaunteau Twort Has been so supportive in helping me gather everything needed for submission in relation to my claim. I have felt very naive and ashamed about what happened in relation to the scam. But realise now how clever these people are and that it’s not just me who falls. Thanks again to Chaunteau.

Thank you so much for your kind words. We’re really pleased to hear that Chaunteau was able to support and reassure you throughout the process. Sadly, these scams are designed to be incredibly convincing, and many people are affected by them every day.

Thank you again for placing your trust in us, and we’ll make sure your feedback is passed on to Chaunteau.

Faye Hornby was very reassuring ...

I recently appointed CEL Solicitors to help me recover money lost through a scam, and so far I have been very impressed with their professionalism and support. Faye Hornby explained the process clearly, kept me informed throughout, and demonstrated strong knowledge and attention to detail. I feel confident having them handle my case and would highly recommend them based on my experience so far.
