Contested Divorce during COVID

I would highly recommend attorney Lefebvre for Divorce counsel. From the first meeting when I hired him, he reviewed with me exactly what to expect throughout the process. Due to Covid and a new judge that started in Family court as a result of a retiring judge the case took longer than expected. ...It was also very contested during the process making it a challenging case. Chris was honest and straight forward throughout the process. He explained everything to me in terms that I understood. He anticipated every response/move from the opposing counsel, and he provided suggestions how to best complete the process in a fair equitable and efficient manner. Chris did not suggest frivolous actions in order to delay the process or increase my legal expenses. Chris has more than 30 years of RI Divorce experience and he knows the law and pays close attention to detail. You will not be disappointed if you have Attorney Lefebvre represent you.

Family Law

Christopher Lefebvre is by far the best lawyer I have ever met. He goes out of his way to make you feel like you’re the only client that he has. I can’t say enough great things about this man. He has integrity and is honest, which seems to rare quality these days! ! He’s a no nonsense lawyer who has... gone above and beyond for me! He provided me with the most practical and knowledgeable advice. It is obvious that he loves what he does and that he truly cares about people! At the same time he continues to try to save me money, which is much appreciated because I am a single mother of four children. I’m dealing with a difficult and emotional situation with my ex husband and Christopher continues to be very patient and empathetic! I would never go anywhere else to seek advice again! I only wish that I hired him for my divorce almost five years ago.

Highly Recommend

I hired Mr. Christopher M. Lefebvre, Attorney at Law, of Consumer & Family Law Center to represent me in a custody dispute. The day I called to arrange a free consultation, Mr. Lefebvre took the time out of his busy schedule to see me the same day; very personable and compassionate. I addressed my ...concerns and feared the safety of my child’s wellbeing. With Mr. Lefebvre’s patience and full attention, he wrote down all the information correctly, asked me all the important questions and gave me feedback with an absolute professional point of view. Within a day of Mr. Lefebvre’s representation, he exceeded my expectations by not only filing the appropriate documents and presenting his argument in Family court. He was also able to have my child returned to my care immediately, which brought me to tears. I have never met an attorney, such as Mr. Lefebvre, whom is highly motivated, punctual, diligent and is the epitome of what a Family Law Attorney should be. Mr. Lefebvre is not about empty promises. He achieves the results you are seeking. In due part of Mr. Lefebvre’s success of my case, he has restored the faith of the legal system in my eyes and has convinced me that anything is possible. My Family and I want to thank Mr. Lefebvre for everything he has done for us, and making our family whole again. We are forever grateful. I highly recommend Christopher M. Lefebvre to all families seeking true justice for the ones they love.

Custody cases are NOT my favorite type of matters to handle. However, there are several instances where a parent is being unjustifiably mistreated by the other parent and the child is caught in the middle. Those cases deserve immediate attention. I am glad this case had a happy ending for you.

Family court

Chris was my second lawyer in an m case in family court, visitation with my child for her father, who has been arrested for assault against me, and needed to prove his stability. Christopher did not look over any detail I gave him, which my previous lawyer would deem unimportant, and he would take my... concerns as valid and make sure they were brought before the judge. He always made sure I understood all possible outcomes and helped me navigate my way to an agreement which keeps our daughter safe, yet allows her to be with both sides of the family, both parents. I would highly recommend him to anyone fighting in family court.

Dealing with custody and visitation issues can be emotional. I try to be sensitive and practical in approach to these issues. Sometimes I am extremely successful and on occasion things don't go as planned. I am glad you were satisfied.

Very helpful and thorough.

I was curious on the steps to take to seek full custody of my kids. Besides answering my email almost immediately (after hours) he invited me to call his cell. He was extremely helpful and genuinely interested in what was happening with my kids and I and the issues we were facing. He immediately gave... me options and the information I needed to chose what I should do next. It was greatly appreciated. I would recommend him in a heartbeat. If a need ever arises where I need a family attorney again, I wouldn’t hesitate to call him. He’s definitely one of the good guys.
