The Gaines Law Firm, P.A.

3 other lawyers did not achieve what he did! That says it all for me. Hard working lawyer that is on your side. I Highly Recommend Him!!!

I recently went through one of the most difficult periods of my life — divorce after 30 years of marriage. From the very first consultation, Attorney Richard Gaines made me feel supported, informed, and confident I was not alone in this process.
What stood out most was his deep knowledge of family law and his strategic approach. He patiently explained every step, prepared me thoroughly for the settlement agreement and court appearance. He was incredibly responsive — always answering calls, texts, and emails promptly.
Thanks to his guidance and advocacy, we reached a fair settlement that puts me in a much stronger position moving forward. I finally feel like I can start this next chapter with peace of mind.
If you’re facing divorce, I cannot recommend Mr. Gaines highly enough. He’s compassionate when you need it, tough when you need it, and truly exceptional at what he does.
Would hire again in a heartbeat (though I sincerely hope I never have to).

I was more than a bit apprehensive about revisiting my old Florida alimony case once I retired. Richard came highly recommended from a close friend, and he did not disappoint. From the initial info gathering phase all the way through mediation, everything went well - with an outcome that was very acceptable. If you find yourself in a similar circumstance, I recommend you reach out. You will thank yourself later.

I was recommended to Richard for my recent divorce, and he was absolutely on point and amazing!
I had spoken to a few attorneys about my situation and they were a little bit hesitant about my desired outcome but when I spoke with Richard, he was extremely confident, clear and concise about what needed to be done!
He was very knowledgeable about family law and explained how it worked in detail which gave me the confidence to move forward and trust him with my case! He also guided me towards ways to save money on my case which I really appreciated as well and the outcome was exactly what I wanted without compromise!
He was very responsive and Barbara his assistant was amazing as well, answering any questions and keeping me updated about timelines regarding my case! Overall, just a great experience all around and highly recommend Richard if you are in need of an attorney!
Thank you again guys!

Working with Richard and Barbara at Gaines Law Firm turned a very difficult situation into one that was managed professionally and generated a positive result. Richard is excellent in his ability to explain legal issues and set strategy to attain the desired outcome.
I would recommend him to anyone looking for sound, honest advice and legal representation.
