About Christopher C. Jeffers

I have practiced law in Boulder, Colorado since 1990. and received my BA in English from Wesleyan University in 1981, and my JD from the Fleming Law School at the University of Colorado in 1987. My private practice currently focuses on mediation, domestic relations, dependency and neglect, family related criminal matters, and civil protection orders. Although I practice less frequently in these areas, I have an extensive background in civil litigation and criminal defense. I’ve also served as a Child Family Investigator on behalf of children in domestic relations cases, and as a Guardian Ad Litem in dependency and neglect cases.

Chris is just a good guy with a good heart and has a strong handle on the law. He represented me during my divorce that was a very difficult time in my life. He fought hard for me and my kids, even called the judge out on a law that the judge didn't get right. I walked away from the divorce with my head held high because of Chris. Recently I needed to change some things in the divorce decree and instead of charging me an arm and a leg, he helped me figure out how to do it myself and yesterday I just won the motion. While I'm absolutely paying Chris for his assistance, he was very humble about taking money from me. There's not another lawyer I would go to in Colorado for any type of family matters case other than him.

Chris Jeffers was selected by me over 10 years ago. I was referred his name and one other attorney who had zero chance after I met with Chris. I knew he had a gift for explaining to me how and why the system worked which I very much needed. I knew he would keep my daughters best interest in mind at all times. Chris has a passion for improving peoples lives in the ways that really matter the most while many other attorneys seem to only have a passion for billing their time and breaking the bank.

"If you’re in a situation fraught with conflict and emotion, complicated with children in the mix, I strongly suggest you work with Chris Jeffers. I started working with Chris over a year ago, and I continue to work with him today. His calm demeanor and grasp of the law is impressive. He has the ability to focus on what’s important and not get bogged down in extraneous issues, which often come up in my high conflict case." - Current Client

Chris was very professional and knowledgeable during a very difficult divorce. He is very intelligent and made sure I understood the process and the pros and cons of all decisions both from a relational and financial perspective. Despite his efforts to settle out of court, a couple of times we did end up in court and he said just the right thing to benefit our case. At times, the emotions ran high but he was calm and reassuring. He was great.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
