Great attorney

Francis did an excellent job on my case. The outcome was great but more important than the outcome is that she really cared about my children’s well being and not a dollar . She was very thorough and took the time to get to know the whole situation. There was never a time , weekends and holidays incl...uded, that she didn’t answer my phone calls or return them ASAP. I’ve had different attorneys over the years and I’ve never had one like Francis and her staff that i felt really cared like they did . If your honestly looking for a family law attorney to seek the best interest of your family then I strongly recommend Mrs. Dyal.

Wonderful, caring and diligent family law expert

She is caring and passionate in her advocacy of children in the difficulty of a divorce situation. Where most attorneys settle easily to get a quick/easy settlement and fast profit, she WORKS to get the best possible outcome for her clients and the children involved. As a father, she won me custody a...nd child support for my son. I will be forever grateful to her.

The Absolute BEST Choice for Family Law!

Frances has handled every aspect of my divorce and subsequent child custody issues. She has always been responsive and courteous. I would recommend her to anyone who wants the best representation that you can get. She has always had the best interests of both me and my children. I have always felt li...ke I have had a guardian angel with her on my side!

Highly recommend!

Mrs. Dyal is the consummate professional: always prepared, polite and ready to outwit her opponent. She is fantastic at balancing aggressive representation of her client with a reasonable approach to settlement. She is a pleasure to work and a formidable opponent. Mrs. Dyal is a hard working and dedi...cated family law attorney, and also holds a degree as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She cares about her clients on a personal level. I highly recommend her and will continue to do so in the future. I know they are in good hands with Mrs. Dyal.
