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...t appears he has taken my case as a personal matter and is stopping at nothing to help me. I can't say enough but I highly recommend him to anyone in need of help and doesn't know where to turn. YOU NEED TO HIRE HIM

Thanks Mark. It is never a good thing when DCYF gets involved in family matters. I take the responsibility of zealous advocacy very seriously.

Professional Attorney

I hired Mr Lefebvre to help me same my house. As a result I filed a chapter 12 bankruptcy case. It was extremely successful. Mr Lefebvre and his staff were extremely responsive to emails. My family was in a rough financial situation and we now are finally able to see light. Recently the mortgage comp...any was giving us a hard time about the modification we obtained in the bankruptcy and he took care of the problem immediately. He is a good honest lawyer.

A foreclosure can be a very scary and frightening thing. We try to do our best to work with clients to avoid this outcome. A chapter 13 bankruptcy filing is a good way to halt foreclosure proceedings and allow a family to re-organize and get back on track with their financial responsibilities. I’m glad that things worked out for you. Not every case is as successful.

Divorce/ bankruptcy

I started my divorce and bankruptcy case with a different attorney who wasn’t able to mee my needs. I switched to Chris who was outstanding and very knowledgeable! He always responded promptly to my emails and calls and was always there to assist with any concerns I had. Chris helped me settle my div...orce case and I received everything I had asked for in my divorce settlement!! I highly recommend him!!

There are not many attorneys that understand the complexities of a simultaneous bankruptcy and divorce filing. I am fortunate that my late father encouraged me to be knowledgeable in both of these areas of the law. I have a reputation of being the go to person in this scenario. I’m glad things worked out well and appreciate your vote of confidence.

Family law issue

We contacted Chris Lefebvre in urgent circumstances. We needed to receive an official copy of a certificate of divorse from the archives in Rhode Island, who were not willing to expedite our request. We called Chris and explained the urgency of our situation. He immediately assured us that he unde...rstood what needed to be done, and that he would take care of all the details for us, which he did at once We are very grateful to have found Chris! He's a real gentleman. We recommend Chris very highly.

Thank you for your kind words. I try to be mindful when a potential client has immediate needs. I’m glad things worked out and that you received your documents and that you were able to get remarried. I wish you well .

Posted by Christina | November 03, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

You want him on your side!

Chris was referred to me by one of my friends who had hired him for her divorce, and I am so glad I chose him to handle my contested divorce case too. He was with me every step of the way, and went out of his way to explain things to me that I didn't understand. He always was prompt to reply to email...s and phone conversations, and making an appointment with him was never a challenge. He is honest and straight to the point, and he gets things done! The best part was that he was willing to work within my budget, which is something I didn't find in any of the other lawyers I interviewed. I am so glad I picked Chris to represent me, and I genuinely believe I would not have gotten the outcome I wanted without his help.

It was a pleasure working with you. It’s always a pleasant experience for an attorney when a divorce case is resolved in a dignified and respectful manner.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
