Dee Ann was one of the most professional, knowledgeable, intelligent, accountable and compassionate lawyers I have met in Florida. After going through three Florida attorney's in a span of 3 years, I was finally blessed with lucky #4, DEE ANN, who beat all of them hands down. She and her office assistant(s) kept us updated and informed throughout the case. She represented my case with much diligence and she made herself available to me during difficult hours to assure that my case was treated with fairness and equality. She also had an assistant, Amando, who was working with her and was hands-on before and during the trial. This young guy was super smart and has a bright future ahead of him. He was most fortunate to have the experience of working with Dee Ann, one of the best lawyers in the State of Florida. In my opinion, she fought for my case as if she was fighting for her own life. She ask for a small miracle; we received a profound miracle. The verdict was that miracle that came from someone bigger than us all. Thank you to Dee Ann Athans for believing in my innocence and giving me back my life so that I can go on with my life. Escobar & Associates should be proud to have this lady as part of their team. THUMBS-UP TO A TOP NOTCH LAWYER!

I don't need to say much about Dee Ann and her boss, Rick Escobar, at Escobar and Associates. They are two of the best attorneys in Tampa hands down. Probably even the best attorneys in the State of Florida! They have a great deal of experience and work extremely hard for their clients! I personally wanted to hire a female attorney for my case and I knew Dee Ann was the one for me after having met her on several occasions. Had I wanted to hire a male attorney I would have hired Rick Escobar. I can't believe nobody has done a review here before for Dee Ann, but I had to take a few minutes to write one in hopes this would help others locate a killer attorney. Dee Ann has a great paralegal Rusty who works with her and he is super smart and talented too. They make a great team! They keep you in the loop on what's going on with your case which I can really appreciate. Dee Ann has great relationships with not only other criminal defense attorneys but also with judges and prosecutors. Relationships are EVERYTHING!!! I retained Dee Ann within the last month to handle a termination of probation case and it didn't look too good for me but I never doubted Dee Ann and as always she made it happen! Thank you Dee Ann! Should I ever need an attorney again I'm coming back to you! **AS A SIDE NOTE** Dee Ann isn't one to brag but I'll brag on her behalf... She is such an incredible attorney and so well respected that she was chose by HLN News to do the commentary and analysis for the super high profile Casey Anthony trial in Orlando. I'm sure we could all agree they don't just pick any attorney for something like that. They could have picked anybody they wanted and they chose her! That should speak for itself! Need a great attorney? Look no further... -Bryan
