Extremely strong advocate for children

Mr. Gantt is a gem of a lawyer. If you are looking for a kind and attentive yet absolute serious advocate for your kids during a custody case then he is for you. I actually found him through a fb group while going through the most stressful time of my life. He gave the most sound and reassuring advic...e without even asking for a fee upfront. Based on his advice, I had the confidence to proceed with my custody case. I was terrified about the "standard 50/50 arrangement" and he assured me that this is not always the case. I ended up with primary custody of my kids, and I know that without his consult I would never have had the confidence to take it to court after 2 failed mediations with my ex. He is happy to offer a few "off the cuff" advice messages for no cost. He understands the family court system. Could not rate him higher. If you have the chance to work with Richard, know that he will be realistic, but also fight your corner to the highest standard! Highly recommend!

Richard is an Attorney you want in your corner!

I was introduced to Richard Gantt through a local law firm several years ago. I met with him to discuss my case and later realized he had previously sat on the same side of the table as me and had also experienced divorce personally himself. Because of his experience on both sides of the table, I w...as convinced to have him represent me as well. Divorce is very unsettling and unpleasant; my situation was no exception! Richard helped me to understand the process, guided me as to what information was needed, and worked with me to help ensure the outcome was as favorable as can be by the state of NC. My divorce was the first time I needed this level of counsel, but I felt at ease because Richard attentive, strategic and detailed-oriented in protecting my interests during the separation and final divorce. In the end, his effort made it feel like "a win" - knowing that no-one wins in divorce. I've been happily divorced for over several years and wanted to give my thanks to Mr. Gantt. I would recommend him to anyone; for he will definitely look out for your best interest!

Mr. Richard Gantt review by satisfied client

I've been happily divorced for over a year and wanted to give my thanks to Mr. Gantt. Divorce is always horrible, and my situation was no exception! My ex is a high-conflict, illogical, and histrionic individual, and Mr. Gantt helped me navigate thru the nightmare process of divorce. He instructed... and guided me carefully on every part of the process. He was also very straight-forward about what was included in each step - including the duties to be performed, cost, timeline, etc. The final outcome of my divorce was the best outcome the state of NC could allow me. Mr. Gantt also went above and beyond with provisions and advice that made the cost of divorce a "break-even" outcome for me. Divorce is still expensive, but he saved me thousands of dollars of expense with several of our maneuvers. In the end, his effort made it feel like "a win" - knowing that no-one wins in divorce. And, some of our maneuvers could still benefit me, based on certain situations that may occur. I appreciated all the effort and time Mr. Gantt spent with my divorce. I would recommend him to anyone - especially if they have a high-conflict ex. Thanks again Mr. Gantt.

He was there when I needed him

Richard Gantt represented me as my divorce attorney in 2016. While the process is of course unpleasant, Richard helped take some of the stung out of it. Based on his many years of experience, he was able to effectively guide me as to what to expect, what was reasonable, and how long things would take... to resolve. I put my full confidence in Richard and he did not disappoint. The processes never got ugly or sidetracked and I appreciated that everything was covered for a flat fee of $8000. I recommend Richard Gantt without reservation.

Divorce is one of the hardest chaiineges in life. It’s and emotional process and upends ones whole world. It requires someone who knows the law and understands what’s possible and what’s not. Someone who can advise you on how to navigate the legal aspect of a divorce while you focus on the emotio...nal part and rebuilding your life. One thing to know a divorce is decided based on facts, interpretation of the law, and what can be argued on your favor, emotion unfortunately does not decide the outcome or the process. Richard does an amazing job of understanding the law, explaining it for you, and helping guide you towards the best decision and outcome. emotions could our judgment and decipher making proces when we are overwhelmed by them, and a divorce certainly does that. Richard understands this and while he empathizes with what your are going through, he holds himself as the rock that is ever vigilant to the best outcome for you and everyone involved. He takes care of the legal aspect so you can take care of yourself and the new life you will find.
