Raymond Fredric Chamberland III

Before temporary orders hearing, Ray made a lot of “promises” of aggression. Once the temporary hearing came up after that he was constant on nickel and dimming me. Making threats that I owed him up front thousands of dollars without discussing where it all came from or giving me ahead notice. Afte...r TO he also then started to communicate with OC and volunteered information that was NOT discussed with me as well as adding information in the TO that judge did not say that sided with OC.

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Ray and feel extremely fortunate to have discovered his legal services when I did. I had originally filed for divorce through the nation-wide law firm "Cordell & Cordell" and was extremely dissatisfied with their exhorbitant fees and severe lack of client care. Aft...er talking on the phone, I made the decision to switch to Ray as I found him much easier to relate to. He explained relevant legal processes in a practical way without dragging me through the weeds. Additionally, he wisely engineered a comprehensive legal strategy specifically designed for my case and executed it to perfection. He listened to my positions and was willing to represent me in a much more thorough manner than Cordell and Cordell. Certain aspects of my case were already generally pre-determined due to existing case law, but Ray fought for my position against long odds anyway which really made me feel like he was on my team. Ray is an experienced lawyer in family law and previously had a stellar career reaching the pinnacle of the milary legal environment as a senior Air Force JAG officer. The judge's final decision in my divorce case ended up being more favorable than anything I could have expected and the credit goes to Ray and his team of paralegals who prepared an impressive argument which held the day in court. I enthusiastically recommend Ray's legal expertise to any military personnel or civilian requiring family law needs. As the owner of his own firm, I think he has more of a vested interest in adequately representing his clients as best he can and I found his rates to be relatively affordable. Thanks again Ray! I feel very strongly that if I had stayed with my previous lawyer, there is no way my case would have turned out as well as it did with you!

Ray represented us during our relocation case. It was a very contentious case and the other party refused to cooperate. Ray led us through the process with professionalism and integrity and in the end we won full custody and were allowed to move with the kids. He genuinely cared about the well bei...ng of the kids and took the time to learn about them and their personalities. Even though at times we felt helpless and that there was no end in sight, Ray kept us on track and we came out on top.

Makes promises that he can't keep. Tells you that you have a solid case but $10,000 later the judge dismissed the case. Not only that, he made so many mistakes in the motions that he had to go back and re-write it and charged for his mistakes. Has the worst temper. Doesn't want you to ask questio...ns and if you do he will tell you he is the lawyer, not you. Pompous ass! Here is he worst part, he meets with you initially, is very nice and then doesn't want to meet. Beware!!!!!! I am sick with regret at the loss of money and the disrespect that Chamberland exhibited.

A year ago I chose Ray Chamberland to represent My husband and I in a step parent adoption. Given the circumstances with the biological father, we ran into one obstacle after another. Ray was consistent, professional, honest, and just an all around blessing through out the entire process. After a yea...r of him helping us complete each task required for the adoption, our court date finally came. Going into any court hearing always brings fear and anxiety. Ray finished as strong as he started. My husband and I had absolutely no doubt that we had made the best decision hiring Ray for legal representation. He exceeded any expectations, and was fearless and knowledgable during the hearing. After completing the adoption, the judge complimented Ray on how strong and diligent he presented the case. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal representation.
