I have had a great experience with Christine, McClane Law Corporation. She has made an incredibly difficult divorce tolerable. Without her help I would be in much worse shape than I am and I am forever thankful for her help and expertise.

Mark Tseselsky was recommended to me by a lawyer friend, when my ex husband and I disagreed about medical treatment for our son. I was seeking sole legal custody to make medical decisions based on obstructive behavior. Mark treated me with the utmost respect and kindness. He listened and advised based on my personal circumstance and desired outcome. He never tried to push me into a lengthy protracted legal fight, but prepared me for the eventuality. Not only was my case resolved harmoniously and quickly, his hourly billing was more than fair. I hope I don't have to retain a family lawyer again, but, if I do, it will be Mark Tseselsky.

As an individual Christine is very kind, empathic, and approachable. As an attorney she is very knowledgeable, quality-focused, and efficient. I highly recommend Christine McClane Tesi at McClane Law Corporation to anyone dealing with divorce, child custody, child visitation, child support, spousal support, or property division. I am incredibly happy with the results of my case. Christine prepared all documents excellently and not once did we have to go to the courthouse for a hearing. My final judgement was ordered in less than five months at a cost I am comfortable with. I understand that this may not be the experience for most people, but due to Christine’s excellent mediating/negotiating skills and focus we were able to resolve my case without any court hearings. This was a huge financial savings for me. In my experience hourly rates are mostly irrelevant. Hiring a cheap attorney who does a poor job can cause the case to draw on, and on, and on. The way to save money is to file paperwork correctly and avoid the court visits. Your attorney is not your therapist. But a good attorney can keep you focused on what’s important. This was true for me. Christine is very responsive and an extremely effective communicator. She always responded to my emails in a very timely manner. It’s easy to let your feelings get in the way and sidetrack the whole process. Luckily, Christine told me what I needed to hear and kept my thought process on-point throughout the whole case. Now that my case is over I can confidently recommend Christine McClane Tesi at McClane Law Corporation to anyone dealing with divorce, child custody, child visitation, child support, spousal support, or property division.

League of his own!!! 15 out of 5 stars!!! Does NOT MAKE EMPTY PROMISES yet DELIVERS MIRACLES!!!! After switching attorneys and doing mountains of research I could not have been better rewarded then finding Mark Tseselsky. Child Protective Services is a niche system, not governed by familiar concepts such as "burden of proof" or "innocent until proven guilty". A mere anonymous allegation, misunderstanding or a possibility of risk is enough to forcibly remove a child from family. Time frame of reunification is between nine months to a year and a half. Mark Tseselsky has years of experience masterfully navigating children's court. Knowledge of psychology, deep understanding of how DCFS (Department of Children and Family Services) functions, comprehension of cultural differences combined with years of experience is what sets mr. Tseselsky apart and creates a unique ally. Mark compassionately, free of judgement explains to the panicked family how the situation occurred and what steps are necessary to resolve it. CPS workers have their own "language". Mark Tseselsky patiently unveils hidden meaning's of seemingly innocent questions, repercussions of declining services that are presented as "volunteer" or "helpful", importance of testing, counseling, etc. Mark Tseselsky meticulously cipher's through family history, interviews, facts and accounts of what happened. Prepares the whole family. Guides each member on how to "speak" CPS. Foresees all detail's that are potentially harmful. Correcting overall demeanor including physical appearance, tone of voice, body language during interviews and court hearings. Moving on to caution against certain words and phrasing that may be twisted. Highlighting how to fine tune your home to very specific CPS expectations. What social worker looks for in a stocked refrigerator/kitchen cabinets, child's room, bed, bathroom, etc. My situation was particularly difficult, estranged from before birth biological father got involved and saw the child as an opportunity for a "meal ticket". Multiple high priced attorneys double and triple Marks retainer advised me to prepare for 3-5 years of legal battle. Predicting my case will be spread over multiple US states and both CPS and Family courts, not to mention a bill to fit that battle. Even though my son was sent out of state, Mark Tseselsky was able to keep the case in CA jurisdiction, prevent it from going to family court, keep the bill a fraction of what I was quoted by others and reunite me with my son in 5 months. Thank you Mark for all your amazing work and being an integral part of keeping our family together!

Excellent lawyer who is detail-oriented, experienced, and professional. Highly-recommend his law firm!

Christine McClane was a great help to me in a very, very bad situation. She provided guidance and I feel honest input every step of the way. Christine always explained the pros and cons of any action that arose. Christine was always, and still is, very responsive when I had/have an inquiry. Let's face it, the last thing anyone wants to deal with is a Divorce Attorney, let alone a Divorce but Christine McClane is the best! She helps to make a devastating situation and process easier to handle and I can't thank her enough for her assistance, professionalism and kindness.

Services are very professional and very prompt. A very happy client.

She helped me out in a last-minute agreement negotiation. I was working with a deadline, and she jumped right on my case and took care of everything. Thank you, Christine McClane Tesi, for your professionalism and being a great lawyer.

My case was handled very efficiently and professionally. Whenever I had a question or concern, I received an answer in a timely fashion and I felt very comfortable with Ms. Tesi's expertise. I would absolutely recommend this firm. You will pay reasonable fees and be very satisfied with the resolution of your case.

Christine McClane Tesi of McClane Law Corporation, was knowledgeable, responsive, accommodating, and discreet communicating all phases of my divorce process and procedure. Christine represented my interests and communicated my goals and desires adequately. The judgment that was put together during the mediation process did not change and I am very happy with the result and the costs associated with representing my case. Thank you Christine McClane for your guidance through this hard process!

I'm very blessed t have found Christine to help me with my difficult divorce. I couldn't have done it without her. Besides the legal representation, I felt Christine understood the emotional roller coaster my ex was putting me through and helped me see things in perspective when I felt overwhelmed. She was my biggest advocate in this process. I recommend McClane Law every woman going through a divorce.

Christine represented me in the best way. I could trust her to handle my case and be vigilant to help resolve my case. Thank you Christine!
