Great lawyer

Mr. Owens represented my father and my stepmother in a very complicated motor vehicle accident case and was very successful. He now represents my wife in a motor vehicle accident. Where other lawyers have explained that Limited Tort cases were next to impossible to win Mr. Owens gave us "a punchers... chance" and better than that he won! Dean is a good lawyer and very personable and funny. I highly recommend!

Client

Represented me in a complicated criminal matter, my uncle in another criminal matter, and my mother in a car accident case. He also represented a friend of my mother’s in a car accident case so in essence he has represented my whole family. He is dedicated professional and friendly. I would recomme...nd him to anyone looking for a hard worker and straight shooter. Mr Owens is an excellent attorney who achieved great results for my entire family.

Admonition

I hired Dean Owens to handle a case for me. He did not fare well and I made a complaint to the Bar. The outcome, he received a leer of admonition just last month. The Disciplinary Review Board determined his conduct was improper. The complaint and decision was based his failure to communicate with... a client and lack of diligence. Owens had me pay, twice, for an expert witness in this case but he hired and had me pay for a registered nurse and that nurse was not qualified to testify. Again, I paid twice for this testimony which was useless. Based on various inactions by Owens, my case was dismissed with prejudice on 8 February 2013 where the court memorialized its ruling in the order citing "plaintiff's failure to serve expert reports". I was not informed of this and on 2 and 5 April 2013, I emailed Owens asking about the need to retain a medical doctor as an expert and that I was looking forward to the trial. Never heard about the dismissal of the case, with prejudice that occurred on 8 February 2013. After many calls and emails in April, Owens emailed me telling me of the dismissal two months earlier thus any opportunity to appeal was lost. Not only was my opportunity to pursue a case that involved mishandling of my Mother in a care facility, I paid twice for testimony that was not the correct form of expert witness. I would never recommend this lawyer to anyone.

Handled my grandmothers accident case professionally with using aggressive litigation tactics. Out of all the lawyers we met he was the most down to earth guy and well spoken, I didn't feel like he was only in this for money I would hire him again, God forbid anymore injuries happen in my family.
