Christopher M. Lefebvre

I had never retained a lawyer before. I did not know what to expect. I called a lawyer’s office and spoke with the lawyer. The lawyer required a retainer of 3500.00 due the following week. I asked the lawyer if I could pay it in installments. She said no. I couldn’t afford that amount. I looke...d for another lawyer. I felt down and defeated because I could never afford a fee of 3500,00. I read many reviews. I was getting frustrated. One day I came upon Mr. Lefebvre’s ad and reviews. I read all the reviews and he sounded like someone I could trust. I called him that day and he got back to me ASAP. We spoke on the phone, he asked me what kind of divorce, a contested divorce or a non contested divorce. I told him it was non contested. He explained the process and his fee. He was very nice to talk to. He explained everything I needed to do and explained everything in layman’s terms so I could understand. I met him in his office the following week, we discussed everything he gave me the paperwork and documents that needed to be notarized. I will tell you he is a genuine nice man who is understanding and caring. I popped into his office many times without an appointment and they were so nice. He gave me my court date it was 2 months by Webex. His office staff was great! He treated me with kindness and respect. His fee was something I could afford. He never nickeled and dime me. Everything was done professionally, easy , and fast. I would recommend Mr. Lefebvre to anyone who needs his professional help. I would definitely use him again for any legal assistance in the future. I thank Mr. Lefebvre and his staff for everything they did for me.

My spouse and I worked out division of assets on our own. There were no children, debts, alimony, or other complicated issues. Attorney Lefebvre met with me and described the process in detail. His staff was professional and very helpful through the entire experience. They prepared and filed all the ...paperwork promptly. The fees were very reasonable.

In my own experience, Mr. Lefebvre single-handedly shattered my previous biases I might have had for lawyers in the past. His counsel and assistance, not to mention his punctuality and efficiency, was more than impressive. He made it extremely easy for us to end a failed marriage, in a timeline that ...was infinitely shorter than I'd imagined. Lest you think all this is hyperbole, I'll elaborate, in detail, the details of my experience with Mr. Lefebvre. - First, I found Mr. Lefebvre via avvo.com. As my former wife and I decided to finally agree on the basics of a settlement and formally separate our ways, I had numerous questions in mind. As I was doing some online research, I came across Mr. Lefebvre's open-source advice (here at avvo.com) on basic facts of divorce in Rhode Island. I really liked his brevity and decided to contact him for a free consultation. - I then wanted to visit him in his office, where I find a friendly, yet straightforward approach. We went over details over the proto-settlement we agreed upon, he told me what was feasible and/or necessary and what was not. We spent around 45-60 minutes going over details. - For filing divorce based on mutually-agreed settlement, Mr. Lefebvre offers a set fee. If you want to accelerate the process, you may opt for a little higher fee. I went for the "fast-track" option. Honestly, partially influenced by my past biases about the lawyers, I did not really believe that the process will be "that" accelerated. My mistake. - The speed of Mr. Lefebvre's consultation/filing is, for a lack of better word, stunning. I'll give you the basics of my timeline: 1) my first free consultation around early December 2) I decided to hire Mr. Lefebvre around December 7 3) Due to some complications (I had to recover marriage certificate from overseas), I was able to turn in required documents (but not settlement) on December 13 (this is when clock really starts) 4) On December 21, I was able to send a preliminary list of settlement conditions for Mr. Lefebvre to pin down a first settlement draft. At this point, Mr. Lefebvre suggested he could schedule a court hearing as early as January 3!!!! My ex was out of town and there was no movement. 5) Between December 28-30, Mr. Lefebvre went to lengths and worked with us to finalize the wording. In the meantime, my ex showed the settlement to a consulting lawyer she hired on an hourly basis, who said the settlement was simply very very well-written. 6) On January 3, Mr. Lefebvre scheduled a court hearing for January 9th! He guided us through the process and we had a court order for divorce in about 10-12 minutes!!! That's my experience. Mr. Lefebvre made it extremely easy for me to go through a very stressful process in an extremely smooth fashion. I highly recommend him to anyone in a similar situation and will consider him first for any issues I may have relating to the areas where he specializes.
