Responsive and extremely helpful
I consulted Mr. Lefebvre about a problem with a used car dealership. He was incredibly responsive, calling me back on a Saturday. He understood our situation immediately and provided very helpful guidance -- all in the context of his initial consultation. I would not hesitate one instant to retain h...
Some people like my cut to the chase approach and some people don't. Buying a used car that has problems is a super annoying and emotional experience. Unfortunately the laws dealing with these types of matters are not nearly as effective as many consumers think. I try to provide meaningful information so people can attempt to solve their problem without hiring a lawyer. Unfortunately, most dealers don't treat customers fairly and honestly and as result they are forced to seek legal representation.

A lifesaver
My husband and I had 2 terrible attorneys in our foreclosure and Bankruptcy case resulting in the auction of our home. We were at our end when Chris and his firm were recommended to possibly help, script all going inChris was able to get our house back!!! Something we believed was impossible I wish ...
Erin, I am glad things did work out for you and your husband. Finding that little defect buried in the paperwork did help in unwinding the foreclosure. Far too many lawyers that market themselves as bankruptcy attorneys know very little about the intricacies of chapter 13 cases which can inadvertently hurt a consumer. Chapter 13 is a totally different world than traditional chapter 7 cases. I have been doing these types of cases for 30 years so I think I have all the issues covered for my clients. I'm glad things worked out well for you.

A+++
Mr. Christopher helped me for the third time with my debt matter. He is very professional, knowledgeable and experienced. He provided a great service and I couldn’t be more appreciative. He will do in his best power to satisfy your needs. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Financial distress is not easy to deal with. Debt settlement does relieve this burden. Your positive and encouraging words are greatly appreciated.

Child/Medical support case
Christopher was amazing and I would definitely recommend him and/or use him in the future if needed. AND...His prices were not outrageous like some of the lawyers I had consulted with about my case. My case was my ex not paying the amount of child support, medical and other child expenses that we agr...
Communication with client is helpful in getting a positive result. No parent should tolerate non compliance with court orders by the other . I'm glad things were resolved satisfactorily for you.

Divorce Attorney
Chris represented me in my divorce and I could not have been more pleased with his performance. He got me a fair and just result under difficult circumstances. He was great during multiple negotiations as well as in the courtroom questioning and cross examining witnesses. Additionally his costs we...
