Deanna Christina Besbekos-Lapage's Lawyer Endorsements
"Deanna is a fierce advocate for her clients. I would not hesitate to refer a victim of investment or securities fraud to her for a second. She has a unique ability and understanding of the specific arbitration forums where these investor disputes are resolved, which is incredibly important in this field. She grasps complex securities and investments with an ability to tear them apart, and present their flaws in an understandable way, which again in this field of practice is a must."
"Deanna is a dynamo! There's no one who is more diligent in preparation of cases for trial than Deanna. She's a real asset to SLO!"
"I worked with Deanna for many years. I would highly recommend her for any securities or investment fraud cases."
