John and I want to thank both of you for your help, support and patience in applying and getting my Carte de SéjourToday, both of us got to witness and experience the full spectrum of what the prefecture is like - friendly (sparingly), surly and definitely dysfunctional. Thank goodness we had Annelyse with us. We’re so grateful for your tenacity and professionalism. Merci beaucoup!

During our first year settling into France Tracy Leonetti at LBS took the pressure off us entirely. As serenity prestige members, Annelyse handled all our administrative requirements in a straightforward, friendly, very easy manner. From the outset she went beyond the call of duty to make our move from the UK as successful as possible and we are so grateful to have had her on side. We couldn't have done it alone!

I would like to place on record my appreciation of all the help you have given me with my application for residency in France.


From the very first telephone conversation we had, I felt confident with my decision to hand over to you the whole potentially daunting process.  This has proved to be the case throughout.  Your experience, and expertise in dealing with the gathering of information and documentation required has taken away any frustration and anxiety I might have had by embarking on the process on my own. Your knowledge of the workings of the various authorities is second to none.  You have always been prompt in answering my questions, kept me informed of progress and have given welcome assurance at every stage.  I would have no hesitation in recommending you and LBS to anyone contemplating applying for residency in France.  Thank you so much.

We have had a relationship with Tracy Leonetti and her staff at LBS for five years. LBS has aided us with our French Visa’s so that we have a Titre de Sejour each year and also with successfully obtaining our Carte Vitale. As Americans their service was extremely helpful due to the language barrier and the unpredictability of the Prefecture. They told us what to do, when to do it, what documents we needed, and accompanied us to the Prefecture each time. They are professional, prompt, and know their various areas of expertise inside and out. We highly recommend them for any of the services they provide.

It seems there nothing and no problem too big that LBS cant solve ! I was originally looking for someone to take the weight off all the paperwork I was trying to do for a four person (one is disabled) relocation to France, while we were busy doing a business and home renovation. It’s a lot to set up one person so truly overwhelming to try and do four! To top all of it off my daughter had a very bad accident and was in intensive care. My world ended and I thought I had been dropped on another planet with very little language skills.


 

The LBS angels as now call them, quickly jumped into action and guided me through everything while it was happening and still now with the after care, yet none of this was part of my contract. I feel truly blessed and will be forever grateful for their (in Tracy’s own words) ”we are all human” attitude to my crazy little world.


Thank you LBS forever.

When tackling the daunting prospect of moving your life to France, I can’t recommend Tracy Leonetti highly enough. Tracy suggested a video call, which gave a huge amount of clarity around all the necessary steps that lie ahead. It would have taken me months to find out what I learned in 90 minutes. Not only that, but Tracy presented the information very clearly and logically, reminding me along the way of the order in which I will need to address each step. I feel totally reassured of what needs to be done and when, and I also know I can go back to Tracy for help along the way. That is worth every penny!

For our relocation from Monaco to France, my wife and I are glad to have used Leonetti Business Services to assist us with the various administrative procedures.  We appreciate hugely having avoided the wasted time, bureaucracy and frustration which we would otherwise have encountered.


The LBS team were very professional and proactive.  They kept us informed at all stages of the process.  I have no hesitation in strongly recommending them to  anyone wishing to relocate to France.
