It has taken me a year of freedom to find the perfect words to describe my gratitude and immense satisfaction of the work Rick Escobar (along with collegue Lyann Goudie) accomplished for me and my husband. We will be forever grateful that God lead us to him and his team of experts who continually showed true professionalism and care in handling our cases. The way they treated our family during the hardest time of our lives will never be forgotten. Everyone in this office has shown compassion, care and genuine sympathy for our situation and acted accordingly to resolve the issues to get us home again. The term "going the extra mile" doesn't even come close to (and falls short of) describing the work that this team will do for you. Rick understands how important your freedom is to you. He understands the law. He knows the loopholes. He takes pleasure in what he does. I have always been a firm believer that to be good at what you do, you must enjoy it. Watching this man revel in his victory was so great to see as I could tell that helping people is what he was meant to do. As I see the local news and catch glimpses of Rick representing high profile cases, I catch myself thinking how lucky his defendants are to have him on their side. We wish nothing but continued wonderful success to Rick and his team! While defending ourselves in our criminal cases was very expensive, we know it was worth every single cent we spent to have the very best by our side. We also know in our hearts that if we would have chosen anyone else to represent us, the outcome would have been much, much different and we would probably not be home with our family to be able to write this review. I hope that if you are ever in a legal situation where you need excellent representation, you choose Rick and his team. They will be there for you every step of the way. Sincerely and with a heart full of gratitude, Michele and Derrick Holman

Dino Michael’s is the best. He is the best lawyer I ever had. He did an amazing job on getting all my charges dropped.
Words can't express the appreciation i have for Escobar and associates and even the support staff they have. But more specifically i want to thank Dino Michaels and his assistant Francheska they are very professional and make you feel important and like family every step of the way. Mr. Michaels was able to take a second degree felony and drop it to a misdemeanor and probation. He is a legal genuis in my honest opinion from the start you can see he is genuine and cares about his clients. His associate francheska is also amazing. I was blessed to have Mr. Dino Michaels represent me and will be referring anyone i know that needs legal representation to Escobar and Associates!

Tenacious - Ethical, logical, intelligent, honest, trustworthy and very straight forward. Extremely professional, one of the best defense attorneys in the state. In unvarnished truth he will tell you exactly where you stand and what direction you should go. He has tenacity coupled with a degree of tenderness but never losing site of the end goal, which is to protect, defend and have the best outcome for his client. My husband was facing 2 years of incarceration and potentially house arrest. Due to Mr. Escobar's no-holds-barred approach, meticulous knowledge of the law and mitigation, my husband's sentence was reduced to probation. Navigating through the legal system can be unsettling, especially when you are new at this, but his calm assurance was instrumental in helping us stay the course. Don’t hire him if you are not going to trust him and let him do his job. He will not run up a bill with chit chat or unnecessary communication. He is always on top of the game and never misses a deadline. He is honorable and knowledgeable. Straight forward is an understatement, but he’s not your therapist he is a brilliant attorney who sticks to the facts that matter and have a legal basis, he will cut you off on the frivolous fluff that so many clients want to vent about, this will save you money in the end. He is well respected in the community and has earned this respect following the values of his faith and commitment to his vocation.
I highly recommend this law firm for any and all criminal defense needs. His Legal Assistant, as well as his entire staff, were very professional, personable, and eager to assist me in every way possible throughout the entire process. Many thanks also to Mr. Rupak Shah for his invaluable input and research during this case.
I can truly say that Mr. Escobar has countered the stereotype that most people have about attorneys.

I want to thank Attorney Dino Michaels as well as Attorney Rick Escobar for the work and effort that they provided with my case. The years of experience that this office has and the professionalism which was demonstrated aided with trial. I would definitely recommend this law firm, especially with very serious crimes. Attorney Micheals represented me in a case that I was very tedious and challenging. However, with the knowledge, meticulous work and positive attitude I avoided felony conviction. Thank you again Attorney Michaels and Attorney Escobar for your efforts with my case and keeping me close to my family.

I was facing charges on my 3rd DUI case and we ended up going to trial. Dino Michaels showed great professionalism through the management of the case. During the Jury Trial, Mr. Michaels destroyed the officer's testimony. He was able to bring to light details that demonstrated that the officer did not have probable cause for the traffic stop. Mr. Michaels aggressive line of questioning completely discredited the officer's credibility. By the end of the trial, the prosecutor's case was completed destroyed. The Jury came back with a "Not Guilty" verdict and I was exonerated on all charges. Mr. Michael's services were affordable, he makes sure to cater to your situation and is willing to work with you on your financial situation.

Escobar law did their job and I had the best possible out come in my 10 count felony case. Dee Anne specifically, she did everything in her power to prove that my charges were complete BS and filled with lies. I couldn't have dreamed of better representation if my life depended on it. As a matter of fact it DID. I was facing life. She was diligent in making the state recognize that most everything I was accused of is false. She made it possible for me to come home 1 year after hire and raise my 6 year old son who missed his father so much.. TRUST IN ESCOBAR LAW.

Mr Dino Michael's saved my son's life! I will never forget that faithful Sunday and my desperate call to Escobar and Associates. My son was arrested on a Friday due in court in coming Tuesday. I called countless lawyers felt comfortable with none. That was until I called Escobar and Associates. Richard called me back personally on a Sunday!!!!! Had an appointment with Dino next day. After meeting with Dino I knew my son was safe. Dino presences in the courtroom is top notch, he is stellar. His knowledge of the law and how to defend his client is impeccable. I hired Dino for 2 charges. The first charge, 5 years mandatory. Dino got the charge dropped. The second charge, 5 years mandatory as well. Dino negotiated for probation. Adjudication withheld! My son is NOT a convicted felon. He now has a chance a life. He owes his life to Dino Michaels. Had I not made that desperate call on that faithful Sunday I have no idea of where my son would be today. I thank you, i thank God for you Mr. Micheals!!!

If my life depended on legal representation I would hire Attorney Rick Escobar. The last 10 years I have worked with many attorneys along with my son for his legal problems. Some attorneys I hired let me do all the research and diligence and were unprepared in court and the consequences of this were devastating to our family. As a result of this I hired an old time lawyer who I trusted because of reputation and mistakenly I thought the status and higher fees would insure competent representation and that experience was the worst yet. On the last go round of the same problem still ongoing I asked everyone I knew for recommendations and interviewed all the lawyers who were considered the best. I ultimately hired Rick Escobar and I have never regretted that decision. Not only did Attorney Escobar think outside the box with all consequences examined along with probable outcomes I can genuinely say that for the first time we were in good hands and the end result was better than we hoped for.

I met Richard Escobar in 1992 and have had a professional relationship with him ever since. In 1994, I found myself facing a world of trouble, potentially facing spending the rest of my life behind bars. Rick was professional, diligent, and unwavering in his support and dedication to my case. He took a personal interest in helping me to change my life around. He literally gave me my life back by going the extra mile and finding the right solution to my problem and situation. It took a lot of hard work on my end to complete the path to which Rick had sent me down, but none of it would have been possible without Rick. I would not have had the opportunity to turn my life around without Rick's help and guidance. I have recently, again with Rick's help, ended my nearly 22 year legal saga. I am now a law-abiding citizen once again. I deeply appreciate all that Rick and his staff have done for me. His staff is equally impressive. So, THANK YOU, RICK. I can only properly thank you and show my appreciation by remaining law-abiding and lead an exemplary lifestyle from here on out. THANK YOU!!!!

My name is Anthony X. Coleman and I have needed the representation of Richard Escobar & Associates on two separate occasions. Recently I was shockingly arrested for Failure to Return Rental Property from a local Rent A Center who claimed that I failed to return a Children's Bunk Bed and Computer Monitor which is a Third Degree Felony. Richard Escobar and his entire team investigated the truth and passionately represented me in a Non Jury Trail which resulted in a Not Guilty Verdict!!! Also, as a Law Enforcement Officer back in 1997 I was arrested and charged with several felony charges. Due to the high profile nature of my charges in conjunction with being a Law Enforcement Officer I needed the best defense attorney in town. I retained Escobar & Associates and they immediately went into action. Attorney Escobar and his team thoroughly investigated the allegations against me getting down to the facts which resulted in all of the charges being dropped and my arrest expunged. I am sincerely grateful and thankful the entire Escobar & Associates team including their professional and empathetic office staff especially Charlene and Karen who kept in constant communication with me during the entire case. I give my strongest recommendation to Richard Escobar & Associates especially coming from a prior Law Enforcement Officer. I give a perfect 5 Star endorsement!!!

First and foremost I must give honor and praises to God the Father almighty !! I was referred to Escobar and Associates by another attorney that decided that he was not the right man for the job at hand. My justice and liberty was placed in the hands of a phenomenal attorney by the name of Dino Michaels. Attorney Michaels presented himself as a confident yet a very humbling man. My experience with the Pinellas justice system was a very unpleasant one given the fact that I was arrested and charge with grand theft although there was no investigation nor any evidence to pursue the case in the first place. However the alleged victim took it upon herself to ABUSE her power and position as the judges secretary and her husband as well as a detective with the SPPD. Together they convinced the State to wrongfully pursue a criminal case against me in an attempt to collect some money for a stove and refrigerator that they wrongfully accused me of taking from them. It was a nightmare for nearly two years. Fortunately for me Attorney Michaels was very knowledgeable about the law and the facts. He is rightfully very well respected among his peers as well as in his field. Attorney Michaels was always professional yet he made me feel like I was very much at home and in good hands every time we met with each other. My case ended up going to trial and it was during that time that I knew that I would prevail because I had the best man for the job and I must say that Attorney Michaels did a commendable job representing me in trial. He was so smooth in trial he used the State's prop board (for their closing argument) against them during our closing remarks.. The verdict came back not guilty in less than 20 minutes.....

This is one of the best Law Firms in Florida, and I think the best in Tampa Bay. I was referred by a retired Florida judge, and I am a well satisfied client. Pay what they ask, they are worth every penny. Unlike alot of lawyers this firm has your well being in mind. Great people, it feels good to have a firm like this on your side.

"Many people believe there are Angels in heaven, but I can say that I found my Angels here on Earth". Escobar & Associates, P.A. is one of the most outstanding and professional law firms I have ever known. While looking desperately for a criminal attorney due to an unspeakable injustice, I came across Escobar and Associates. My initial consultation was with Mr. Escobar himself who showed the highest integrity standards and ethical values, we as citizens look for in an attorney. I was relieved he listened to my ordeal and quickly appointed Dino Michaels, one of his associates to work on my case. There are no words to describe how grateful I am that Mr. Dino Michaels worked on my case. Mr. Michaels high integrity, ethical values, and fierce commitment to represent a client goes beyond what anyone could expect. Mr. Michaels sense of communication with me as a client helped me understand that he loves doing what he does while helping people. His superior legal representation makes him a tenacious and determined attorney who thrives to pursue his clients' interests while skillfully exposing the reality of the injustice, which resulted in charges being dropped. I will forever be grateful to this outstanding team of attorneys. I absolutely recommend this law firm to anyone in need of an attorney even with my eyes closed. If I ever need an attorney again, I will not hesitate to contact Escobar and Associates first. Thank You for being my Angels on Earth!

There is a great sense of satisfaction when a person has been exonerated from a false accusation. I know as I was a victim of such a false accusation which resulted in a misdemeanor arrest. I am a 52 year old man with no prior arrest or much more than a traffic ticket yet I found myself arrested under the false statement of one person which was part of the security staff at a local well known casino in Tampa. This endorsement is not one of my story it is rather to ensure anyone which has found themselves in an unfortunate situation requiring legal representation of the highest caliber, quality and determination the Law Firm of Richard Escobar is the representation you want. Mr Escobar skillfully and tactically got through to the truth through depositions which resulted in the State Attorney dismissing the charges. I could have paid a firm and they could have advised me to pay a small fine and move on but I would have had a record. NO, that was not acceptable to either me or Mr Escobar. Attorney Escobar pursued the truth and got it resulting in my exoneration. That is a dedicated, honorable, aggressive, successful attorney. I made my story public via a review as I believe it is that important to find the best attorney when you need one. That is Richard Escobar and I truly thank him and his wonderful staff for protecting me, my reputation, and protecting the truth!

The term "going the extra mile" doesn't even come close to (and falls short of) describing the work that this team will do for you. Rick understands how important your freedom is to you. He understands the law. He knows the loopholes. He takes pleasure in what he does. I have always been a firm believer that to be good at what you do, you must enjoy it. Watching this man revel in his victory was so great to see as I could tell that helping people is what he was meant to do.
As I see the local news and catch glimpses of Rick representing high profile cases, I catch myself thinking how lucky his defendants are to have him on their side. We wish nothing but continued wonderful success to Rick and his team!
While defending ourselves in our criminal cases was very expensive, we know it was worth every single cent we spent to have the very best by our side. We also know in our hearts that if we would have chosen anyone else to represent us, the outcome would have been much, much different and we would probably not be home with our family to be able to write this review.
I hope that if you are ever in a legal situation where you need excellent representation, you choose Rick and his team. They will be there for you every step of the way.
Sincerely and with a heart full of gratitude,
Michele and Derrick Holman
Ethical, logical, intelligent, honest, trustworthy and very straight forward. Extremely professional, one of the best defense attorneys in the state. In unvarnished truth he will tell you exactly where you stand and what direction you should go. He has tenacity coupled with a degree of tenderness but never losing site of the end goal, which is to protect, defend and have the best outcome for his client. My husband was facing 2 years of incarceration and potentially house arrest. Due to Mr. Escobar's no-holds-barred approach, meticulous knowledge of the law and mitigation, my husband's sentence was reduced to probation. Navigating through the legal system can be unsettling, especially when you are new at this, but his calm assurance was instrumental in helping us stay the course. Don’t hire him if you are not going to trust him and let him do his job. He will not run up a bill with chit chat or unnecessary communication. He is always on top of the game and never misses a deadline. He is honorable and knowledgeable. Straight forward is an understatement, but he’s not your therapist he is a brilliant attorney who sticks to the facts that matter and have a legal basis, he will cut you off on the frivolous fluff that so many clients want to vent about, this will save you money in the end. He is well respected in the community and has earned this respect following the values of his faith and commitment to his vocation.
I highly recommend this law firm for any and all criminal defense needs. His Legal Assistant, as well as his entire staff, were very professional, personable, and eager to assist me in every way possible throughout the entire process. Many thanks also to Mr. Rupak Shah for his invaluable input and research during this case.
I can truly say that Mr. Escobar has countered the stereotype that most people have about attorneys.

During a time of uncertainty and unrest for our family, Rick Escobar was a beacon of support. Mr. Escobar took his time listening to our situation, our fears and our desired results. He was honest and straightforward about what we were facing and what he could do. Which was exactly what we needed. We received the results that we wanted, and that were explain to us by Mr. Escobar.
Thank you from our family for your diligent work and achieving our desired results.
with my son for his legal problems. Some attorneys I hired let me do all the research and diligence and were unprepared in court and the consequences of this were devastating to our family. As a result of this I hired an old time lawyer who I trusted because of reputation and mistakenly I thought the status and higher fees would insure competent
representation and that experience was the worst yet. On the last go round of the same problem still ongoing I asked everyone I knew for recommendations and interviewed all the lawyers who were considered the best. I ultimately hired Rick Escobar and I have never regretted that
decision. Not only did Attorney Escobar think outside the box with all consequences examined along with probable outcomes I can genuinely say that for the first time we were in good hands and the end result was better than we hoped for.

I was referred to Escobar and Associates by another attorney that decided that he was not the right man for the job at hand. My justice and liberty was placed in the hands of a phenomenal attorney by the name of Dino Michaels. Attorney Michaels presented himself as a confident yet a very humbling man. My experience with the Pinellas justice system was a very unpleasant one given the fact that I was arrested and charge with grand theft although there was no investigation nor any evidence to pursue the case in the first place. However the alleged victim took it upon herself to ABUSE her power and position as the judges secretary and her husband as well as a detective with the SPPD. Together they convinced the State to wrongfully pursue a criminal case against me in an attempt to collect some money for a stove and refrigerator that they wrongfully accused me of taking from them. It was a nightmare for nearly two years. Fortunately for me Attorney Michaels was very knowledgeable about the law and the facts. He is rightfully very well respected among his peers as well as in his field. Attorney Michaels was always professional yet he made me feel like I was very much at home and in good hands every time we met with each other. My case ended up going to trial and it was during that time that I knew that I would prevail because I had the best man for the job and I must say that Attorney Michaels did a commendable job representing me in trial. He was so smooth in trial he used the State's prop board (for their closing argument) against them during our closing remarks.. The verdict came back not guilty in less than 20 minutes..... Perfect presentation and Excellent service Attorney Michaels, you ROCK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Escobar and Associates, PA is my go to firm forever and I want Attorney Dino Michaels in first chair if ever needed again!!!! I recommend this firm to everyone in need of top rated representation.
