Improper use of rules for sequencing.
Improper placement of pronouns before and after verb.
Proper use of rules for placement before verb.
The group of pronouns can go immediately before the verbal nucleus always except for positive commands.
Proper use of rules for sequencing.
The simplest prescrition for pronoun sequencing is: first any "se" (whatever its origin), then second person pronouns "te" or "os", then first person pronouns "me" or "nos", then any third person pronouns "l-". If the pronominalization calls for two "l-" pronouns, "le" or "les" are converted to "se" and moved to its slot at the beginning of the group.

Improper placement of pronouns before and after verb.
Proper use of rules for placement after verb.
One can choose to place the group of pronouns immediately after the verbal nucleus only after infinitives and gerunds. In these cases, as well as for positive commands, the pronouns attach themselves to the end of the verb to form one word, after minor adjustments to the written accent according to the accentuation rules, to preserve the phonetic stress.

Improper placement of pronouns before and after verb.
Multiple object pronouns may appear in a sentence as a result of multiple pronominalizations. The unstressed ones appear together in a group immediately before or after the verbal nucleus. This page deals with the order in which they appear and their placement.
The issues covered are:
All the 'unstressed pronouns' go together in a group according to a set sequence. Breaking the group to distribute them before and after the verb is grammatically incorrect.
