Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Dean Hines deserves the highest rating from my experience with his law firm. He has expert experience, knowledge, and advice when it comes to family law. Dean was able to answer all my questions and responded promptly to all my inquiries. I was so impressed after our first meeting to find an email message in my inbox the very next morning. It had everything we had discussed the day before in detail. It was amazing as I had not even hired him yet and he took the time to write a three paragraph synopsis of our discussion. The attention to detail and follow up was excellent. Hiring Dean Hines was one of the best decisions that I made.
I hired Dean to handle a Family Law issue in the Dayton area. Dean and his staff are very responsive and efficient. He doesn't waste time which keeps the customer's overall cost down. He understands the process and doesn't make false promises. He appears to be very well respected amongst his peers which matters when he's negotiating on your behalf. I highly recommend using Dean and his staff.
I hired Dean Hines after consults with several other area attorneys. Dean was absolutely the best choice and far exceeded my expectations. His expertise, attention to detail and timely responses was impeccable. Dean maintained a calm, cool demeanor, sustained excellent communication and provided emotional succor throughout my divorce process. I am forever grateful for Dean and his team for the service they provided. I absolutely recommend Dean Hines without reservation.
I wish to express my sincere appreciation for the superior service provided to me by Dean. Dean, from Dean Hines Co. managed a rather difficult tax liability on my behalf. During the extremely lengthy case, Mr. Hines listened and more importantly, trusted me for more than 3 years. {para}Lastly, Dean earned my trust providing a sense of comfort for myself and my family during the hardship.
As a retired Law Director & Magistrate I sought Dean's expertise to resolve an IRS audit issue. Dean resolved the issue in a remarkable quick time and secured a significant reduction in the amount of money owed the IRS. He is a superb attorney. Additionally I had witnessed his skill in handling divorce and family relation during my tenure as
Law Director & Magistrate in Domestic Relation Court.
Dean and his staff are knowledgeable, professional, and are genuinely concerned about your situation. He is the only lawyer you will need to handle all your families needs! Thank You Dean!

Dean absolutely saved the day for me! I was up to my neck with legal problems and suffering the fall-out from a big firm that absolutely ruined my case and my finances. Dean promptly provided me with hope and strong representation that wrapped up my mess in less than six months. He was responsive, caring and knowledgeable. I could not have asked for a better resolution to my legal problems. Although I still hate lawyers, I whole heartedly recommend Dean for solid legal representation. He’s the b
I had back tax issues, most attorney's provide a sliding scale for services. Dean's flat rate and knowledge of tax law made easy work of it.
Amazing! I hope that I never need a lawyer again, but if I do, I WILL use Dean Hines!
Dean provided sound advice and handled the details. Knowing the court system and judges gives him keen insight and I always felt he was in complete control of my case. Thanks Dean it worked out the best for me and my kids.
