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 ...
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.

Taking my matter personal
I have been working with Chris for two years. I love the fact I can email him anytime and get a prompt response. He is caring and wants to get the job done. I am dealing with a divorce and a DCYF matter and Chris is doing everything in his power to achieve positive results. He has taken my case and i...
Thanks Mark. It is never a good thing when DCYF gets involved in family matters. I take the responsibility of zealous advocacy very seriously.

AN AMAZING ATTORNEY
I can't say enough great things about Christopher M. Lefebvre. He really is a super hero! I was referred to him by another one of his client. She overheard me telling my horror story after court with my ex-husband and simply stated you need Chris! I have two children and one of them has special ne...
Thanks Christine. Your case was truly memorable. It was one of the few times in my 30 year career where I left the courthouse with a few tears of joy. ( I have left that building on numerous occasion with multiple tears of frustration , anger and dissatisfaction!)

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...
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.

Clear, Concise, No BS, Client-focused
From the beginning, Chris was AMAZINGLY client-focused. Customer service must have been his profession in a past life. My initial consultation happened within 5 minutes of calling his office, wherein Chris spoke with me for over an hour reviewing the high level issues of my divorce and custody case. ...
I am known to be a straight shooter. I dislike nonsense. No one wants to pay for that service. I try to be focused and result oriented and do my best to get the client through the process in a dignified fashion.
"I endorse this lawyer. Chris is a great Bankruptcy and Divorce lawyer with vast knowledge and experience."
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Lefebvre is one of the finest attorneys in RI. I highly recommend his legal services."
"I gladly and strongly endorse this lawyer. Chris knows lemon law (and lots more). He has had some spectacular court victories. His clients like him and lawyers respect him. But more than anything else, he wins. You put all that together and what you have is an attorney you want on your side every time. I highly respect him and endorse him to you."
