Best Attorney Around!

I contacted Christopher for a consultation after another local divorce attorney had my case for almost a year. he was confident, fair, and straightforward about what could be done to complete the case and pick up from the other attorney that was just kicking the ball along. Everything was thorough an...d completed ahead of schedule, much to my surprise and for so much less than the other attorneys had quoted. TOP NOTCH representation and excellent communication. Christopher was always back to me within a couple of hours. If you're considering a great attorney- give him a call! you'll be glad you did. Thanks Christopher and Maria for a job well done!

Best of a Bad Situation

Nobody goes through a divorce and says, "it was no big deal." It's a fairly traumatic experience and as such makes a person vulnerable perhaps to the point of exploitation. I know people whose divorces were dragged out and their fees became exorbitant. One might even question the motives of the lawye...rs... But this was never the case with Chris. In fact, he endorsed my communicating directly with my ex when it seemed we had reached an impasse and it hastened the negotiations tremendously. Instead of a postponement and more communications between our lawyers which could increase our fees, we found resolution in a 10 minute conversation... I always felt Chris had my best interest in mind and felt that he was fighting for a fair and equitable agreement. He isn't hesitant to point out when someone is making an unreasonable demand and will fight to protect what you are legally entitled to. He is responsive and clear in his communications and understands the many difficulties divorce can create. Chris is empathetic and will treat you with dignity and respect. From our first meeting I knew I had found the kind of lawyer I was looking for: one who is capable of protecting and fighting for my interests but who is also a human being. I would not hesitate to recommend Chris to anyone needing the types of legal services he provides and will absolutely work with him again myself (but hopefully not in the family courts!).

Amazing attorney

Attorney Lefevre was amazing right from the start in my divorce case. He took the time to explain everything to me and was honest when I asked questions. I would highly recommend Attorney Lefevre for a divorce Attorney. He also pushed to get my divorce to proceed on the day scheduled an hour befor...e he pulled it all together.

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.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
