Recently worked with DeAnn and her staff and was blown away by how kind, compassionate, thoughtful and supportive they were in our first meeting. They were thoroughly attentive to our needs, and went above and beyond with their fast, diligent work. The simple fact DeAnn has an impressive career of 41+ years of hard-earned experience won us over. I would highly recommend DeAnn, her wonderful paralegal Ty, Michele and the rest of her staff to anyone looking for a rock solid legal team. Worth it! JB/JA

I didn’t know what my rights were as a Dad but DeeAn guided me through my divorce and child custody with exceptional professionalism. My case was appealed to the AZ Supreme Court and DeeAn batted a thousand with every Judge along the way. Six years after the final divorce the nightmare returned. DeeAn guided me through the custody process protecting me and my children while exposing my ex as the appalling person she had turned into. I highly recommend DeeAn if you’re looking for the best outcome

Well, when I called DeeAn, I had no rights at all. Was completely cut off from my son. I had been working with another attorney who was horrible. {para}DeeAn scheduled to see me immediately, and by the end of our initial consultation I had a visit with my son the very next day! {para}DeeAn is calm and deliberate. She is truly Passionate about helping people, and she is armed with one of the most pleasant, non confrontational voices I have ever heard. That, coupled with decades of experience in family law make her an ace in the court room. {para}I am pleased to say that DeeAn was able to secure the best resolution possible in my case. The judge ruled in our favor on every single issue. {para}In my opinion, you cannot do better than Deean Gillespie Strub! {para}My case started out as the worst experience I had ever had. I am proud to say that DeeAn has became a family friend through what became a very positive process.

DeeAn is an excellent lawyer. Her integrity, work ethic, compassion and dedication to her clients is extraordinary. Aristotle was right. DeeAn has made client satisfaction her top priority. In my case DeeAn handled a very acrimonious family law matter. The case took over two years and was finally resolved in my favor. Not only that, the judge, thanks to the excellent work by DeeAn and her team, was able to so clearly see the facts of the case I was awarded my court costs!!!

I have been very fortunate to have DeeAn representing me. Her integrity, work ethic,class law knowledge, and dedication to her clients is bar none...the BEST! I initially walked into her office for our first consultation scared and confused. I left her office feeling the RIGHT person is representing ME. DeeAn was recommended to me by someone I trust..my sister, a court reporter who has worked with DeeAn. She has my vote of confidence and I don't hesitate to recommend her.

DeeAn is professional, she thinks on her feet both in court and in pre-court planning. I cannot say enough good things about her. My daughters and I are together now, and her dedication and effectiveness are the main reasons that was made possible.

I was angry. My previous employer owed me thousands in back wages and then let me go. This firm counseled me, negotiated the best settlement I could expect, saved me time and was very frugal with my money. Honest attorneys -- what a surprise! Now I know where to return if I need any kind of legal assistance. KenJ

I had many issues with Gillespie and Assoc and my divorce case that DeeAn handled. They were not responsive to calls or emails, I had to do 2nd requests for info more times than I can remember. Not as detail oriented as they should have been. They seemed to have too many cases in progress and not enough staff to take care of them. I would recommend you look elsewhere for legal counsel. I cannot recommend this law firm.
