In My 20 Years Professional Experience, The Best Lawyer I Have Ever Known

I have sued, been sued, bought homes, sold homes, bought businesses, sold businesses, been close to bankruptcy and on top of all that been divorced. I am no stranger to lawyers, legal issues and courtrooms. I first came to know Chris by seeking a divorce attorney. I ended up speaking to 4 and ask...ed who else they would recommend for an attorney. Chris was mentionned several times. I paid a fair fee to Chris for my divorce and coudln't ask for a better outcome. Fact of the matter is, usually both divorce parties end up unahappy for various reasons. But, I actually got everything I hoped for at the end of the proceedings. I then used Chris for a real estate matter and that worked out perfectly. I am currently using him in another civil matter, and I am happy with how it is moving forward. Chris is the ONLY attorney I have dealt with who understands the importance of answering questions quickly and concisely. I intend to use Chris on any legal matter going forward. He is a straight shooter, and one of the few lawyers I truly believe cares and fights on my behalf. Highly recommended.

Posted by Steven | November 20, 2014 | Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Bankruptcy Chapter 13

In October of 2010 my wife and I were faced with the realization that we would have to declare bankruptcy. After hearing about Chris Lefebvre from my own personel injury lawyer we decided to give his office a call. Right from that first phone call his office staff made me feel very comfortable. We bo...th went to meet Chris and he put our mind at ease early on during our meeting. He guided us through each step of the Chapter 13 process and explained the pros and cons as to what we would be getting into. After completing all of the forms and finally going to court Chris was always there to answer my questions. I found that if he was not available his paralegal was there to help us. During our first few years with this bankruptcy Chris uncovered a problem with the bank that held our mortgage and recovered a few thousand dollars for us that we never would have known about. Chris was also able to recover about $5,000.00 for us back from the Trustee handling my bankruptcy from a personel injury case that my wife was involved with. Now that we have been discharged from Chapter 13 I still have questions for Chris. He is currently working on a City Tax issue for us. Christopher M. Lefebvre stays with you even after our case is over. I can't thank him and his staff enough.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

My father past away several years ago, having been married to my mother (aged 80) for 60 years. As you can imagine, she was extremely distraught and overwhelmed. Attorney Lefebvre's dad had represented my parents for years, and she decided she wanted to continue that relationship by hiring Christophe...r Lefebvre as his dad has now retired. As the individual responsible to assist my mother in getting her affairs in order, while simultaneously dealing with the passing of my dad, I can't tell you have thrilled I've been with Attorney Lefebvre! He is a very professional, patient, kind and compassionate man. He is extremely knowledgeable and thorough. All this, and his fees are extremely reasonable to boot! I personally plan to hire Attorney Lefebvre as my own legal issues present themselves, and strongly recommend that you consider doing the same!

A Good Quality Choice

Mine was a bankruptcy case where my previous filing was problematic and denied. I released my former attorney, and with the help of a friend, networked to Attorney Lefebvre; therefore not only was this a different experience for me but I had a very recent experience for comparison. I wish I had gone ...to Atty Lefebvre originally! In an hour Atty Lefebvre clarified my misunderstandings, determined that I could proceed with my preferred filing which was discouraged by my former attorney with incomplete information. Atty Lefebrve's office was efficient, responsive, kept me informed as needed, and Chris reflected a genuine passion to help. My case was discharged without exception. This attorney is worth at least a consult before deciding who would be your best fit.

Efficient and Compassionate Attorney

Last year my husband at the time,and I were facing financial ruin. We didn't know much about filing bankruptcy or what our options were. Christopher Lefebvre was recommended to us from friends that had previously used his services. From our first visit, Chris and his staff made us feel comfortable, ...he thoroughly explained to us the process and educated us as to what our options were. Anytime we had questions or concerns, he and his staff would promptly return emails and phone calls, even on the weekend! They made facing the bankruptcy process easier to handle. Recently we had to utilize Chris for our divorce, sad to say. He made this process again as painless as possible and showed us both compassion during a very turbulent time in our lives. I can't thank Chris and his staff enough. I would recommend him to my family, friends and anyone who is going through a divorce or bankruptcy.
