The Law Office of Robert C. LeBrasseur, PC is dedicated to criminal defense.  My goal is to protect you and your rights against the State of Maine.  I pride myself on my ability to obtain the best possible result for each of my clients.  For over a decade, I have tirelessly served Mainers with an array of legal services including, Adult and Juvenile Criminal Defense, Divorce and Family law matters, Personal Injury, Insurance Defense, and civil law. Today, my practice is limited to criminal defense and the protection of your rights.  Contact me today if the State of Maine is attempting to deny your inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.

The first time I stepped in front of a jury, I knew I'd found my calling.  I'm a trial lawyer. I try cases because I enjoy helping ordinary people who have been hurt or wronged by another person, a product, or a corporation. I truly care about my clients and their cause, and I welcome the opportunity to hear about your case.. I've been fortunate to win many trials early in my career, and it's through those successes that I have leverage to negotiate with insurance companies on behalf of my clients before we decide to go to trial.  Most people, including some lawyers, don't understand that without a track record of wins at trial, a lawyer has no stock-in-trade to negotiate settlements or truly understand the value of a case.  In an age where most attorneys rarely see the inside of the courtroom, I am in a rather unique position in this regard.  Please feel free to contact me to discuss your case.
