Client Testimonials

In the years that I have known Diana Solomon, she has always been knowledgeable, professional and approachable. Seeking legal advice can often be a stressful experience, yet Diana quickly put me at my ease when we met and I always felt that I had her full attention.

I was always impressed by her quick grasp of complex issues and in her remarkable ability to demystify them; I always left our appointments confident that I had the full and clear picture. Diana takes time to get to know her clients; she understands the importance of building a relationship with her clients.

I will continue to enlist Diana whenever I have need of her services; she is someone I trust. It is clear to me that she takes pride in her work and makes it her mission to do her best for her clients

During a difficult time, I had the great pleasure of having Diana Solomon represent me in my separation. She guided me through the process, and along with Leisa Heath, the details of my separation were completed with strict guidelines to include my young child. She was very quick to respond with action regardless of the time of day.

Diana and Leisa are both very kind, knowledgeable, and professional. I would recommend Diana Solomon to anyone who is going through a separation or divorce as you will not be treated as just a “client”, and she will do everything she can for you. Thank you again for all your help ladies.
- Sonia
I have been very fortunate to have had the guidance, support and legal expertise of Diana Solomon help me through a very difficult divorce. Without her, my young son and I would not have been able to safely leave an unhealthy situation.

Diana always made sure that our safety was her main priority. She worked diligently for countless hours to help me reach a fair agreement that kept our best interests at the forefront. I can’t thank her enough for her compassionate and reliable professionalism that she has demonstrated to help me through this process
- N.S.
I cannot express how grateful I am to have had Katelyn Bell as my lawyer for a Family Law case, which initially seemed straight forward, but then later became a complex process/issue. Katelyn worked diligently, methodically, and with her heart to fight my case and get what I was legally entitled to.

Katelyn was compassionate and understanding, and her personal approach to my case made it easier for me to forge ahead and continue the fight, especially in times when I felt extremely discouraged. I cannot recommend DSF, especially Katelyn, enough. This is an excellent, professional law firm which employs highly skilled people. I definitely recommend them.

Just on a final note, at the conclusion of my case, the presiding judge made a point as to how I had a commendable lawyer who had painstakingly gone over every calculation and detail, and without this from her, the decision making would have been more challenging. He said he was going to use my lawyer, Katelyn, and her work as a reference for other lawyers to follow. This praise from a presiding judge is enough to convince anyone to retain Katelyn if they want a job well done. Thank you again.

This was my first time needing a lawyer and I did not know what to expect however, from the moment I spoke to Kerri-Ann to the moment she put me in touch with Katelyn Bell, I knew I was in good hands.

Katelyn is extremely intelligent and pays great attention to detail. She was able to help me get through an extremely challenging time and ensure that against all odds, I come out on top. I can say with confidence without Katelyn's support and guidance, I would not have been able to navigate this situation and get the results Katelyn got me. Even when things were not in my favour, Katelyn was able to use her knowledge and ability to think long term to get me out of a tough spot.

Of course when one requires an attorney it is because they are going through a distressing situation, which brings on a great deal of anxiety. This rang true for me and Katelyn was extremely understanding and kind. She was able to advise me on how to make decisions rationally rather than act emotionally, and she always had my best interest at heart.
