He was very responsive and keep me informed on my case and on other matters, shows determination to fight for you and not afraid to take anything to...
"I have consulted with Dean in a professional capacity on many occasions. As a fellow attorney in the Tarrant County area who does not practice criminal law, his advice and counsel has been invaluable to me and my clients over the past decade. I have referred nearly a dozen people to Dean and every one of them has been happy with the outcome and thanked me for referring them to Dean."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked with Dean on many cases and he is an excellent attorney who knows the law and gets unbelievable results for his clients."
"Dean is a colleague of mine, and one of the best trial attorneys I know. We've worked together on a couple of cases in the DFW area, and his skill in and out of the courtroom is outstanding."
"Dean has taught me a lot since becoming his co-worker. His knowledge of case law pertaining to criminal defense is second to none."
"I have worked with Dean on MANY criminal cases. He is not afraid to go to trial on any criminal matter. Dean genuinely cares about the outcome of his cases and the results for his clients. For Dean this starts by understanding all the rules of criminal procedure and knowing the case law by memory. Many attorneys use Dean as a reference and resource. Then he applies that knowledge in the courtroom to receive the optimal results for his clients. Any defendant is in good hands with Dean as their attorney."
"Dean fights harder, and wins more cases than any attorney I know. He is not afraid of the prosecutors, in fact, it is the other way around."
"I've had the pleasure of working with Mr. Miyazono and seen him in the courtroom on many occasions. I can think of no other attorney with more knowledge of the law or passion for advocacy. He is a great trial attorney and I highly recommend him to anyone."
