Tanya Dugree is an excellent attorney. I had two first degree felonies. She fought eighteen months for my freedom. I singed for time served and got probation. One of my charges was completely dropped and the other lessened. She told me to trust her. Trusting her was the best thing. She did what she said she would do.

My name is Paul and I live in Yeehaw Jct, Fl. I have used Tanya M. Dugree on number of occasions and she fought tooth and nail for my freedom and succeeded each time. Tanya M. Dugree is a very serious, dedicated attorney who the courts respect, who you can count and depend on. I owe my freedom to this attorney. I recommend her to anyone who needs a attorney. You can could on her.

She really fought for my freedom. I told her what I wanted and she made sure I got it! I'm extremely happy with the way she handled my case. I had two life felonies and she got me a year and probation. I would definitely recommend her to anybody who is in legal trouble.

I had the pleasure of watching Ms. Dugree in action during multiple court hearings. Afterwards, I referred many of my friends to Ms. Dugree for offenses ranging from DUI, possession of a controlled substance, burglary, fraudulent use of a credit card, grand theft, violations of probation, to battery. All of those friends who hired her were more than happy with her representation. Most of them got their charges dismissed or reduced. None of them went to prison even when they were facing mandatory imprisonment for drug offenses. She endlessly and aggressively fought for their freedom. I would use her and no one else if need be and I will continue to refer her clients. She is a fighter and won't stop fighting until she gets what she wants. Tenacious and experienced!

I have been represented by Ms.Dugree twice and both cases were successful in my situations. I felt that Ms.Dugree gave excellent legal advice and commanded a strong presence in the courtroom. She was effective in her presentation and conversations with the judge and DA. I was at ease knowing my lawyer would successfully find the best resolution to my court cases.

In 2014 I made some bad decisions and unfortunately accumulated several warrants for seven felonies. I of course assumed that all hope was lost. I knew that I scored more than enough points to go to prison for more than a decade! I was at the point of giving up. After all I can afford a defense attorney by any means and my conscience told me I had made some bad decisions and was probably going to have to pay for them. The state attorneys office wanted to serve me the harshest penalty possible and seen you go to prison. I am a husband to a homemaker with three children that I thought I was going to abandon to serve time. One day I was talking to another attorney about my situation and he strongly recommended Tanya. I figured, what do I have to lose? I'm already in a horrible spot as it is! I gave her a call and she gave me and explain to her my situation. I told her that I didn't have a lot of money but I did have a job. She set aside a time for me almost immediately for a free consultation! Needless to say my case was close to $10,000! Just before I thought it was time to give up she explained to me that she was willing to take a low down payment with payments that I can afford every month! I was so excited I have found myself a defense attorney. In the back of my mind though I wondered if she would be as good as I hoped she would taking such a small down payment. I can honestly say that I have never met anyone that showed as much caring, consideration and diligence to help me and defend me in a court of law! Tonya explain to me that the maximum penalty I was facing was 35 years! I almost passed out. But she fought harder than I have ever seen anyone fight. She stood in front of the judge and argue my case as I sat behind her smiling because I felt for the first time that somebody was defending me with every ounce of energy that they could. Her office and her took the time out to find every thing about my case that they could to help me. I have since then had to hire her for several other cases all of them relatable to the first crimes that I committed. I wanted to cry at one point because I thought that the state would never give up trying to put me in prison for crimes that didn't hurt anyone other than myself and my family. Today I am writing this review as a free man with only two years of probation left and a small amount of restitution to be paid! I felt so confident walking into that court room over and over again with Tanya. I knew that I would always walk out a free man because she didn't fight for me for just money she fought for me because she honestly cares about helping people and keeping families together. If you were tired Tanya I can personally guarantee that you would get the most out of her, more than any other attorney that I have hired in the past. (Yes,I just admitted to having an extensive record ). I'm writing this from my bed in my room as I lay next to my wife hearing my children play in the living room thank you Tanya so much for making that possible! Anytime I've needed any advice she has answered my text and my calls. She has even taken the time out to talk to me about personal issues that I'm going through, Including getting jobs, the way I feel about myself, how to handle personal issues out of the kindness in her heart! She did it merely as a friend. If you hire Tanya you're not just hiring one of the best defense attorneys in the Tampa Bay area. You are hiring someone who truly cares about making sure that if you are innocent it will be proven and even if you are you will be able to pay for your mistakes in the cheapest way possible without heart ache and pain. At the end of the day all I wanted was freedom but she has given me so much more than that! She has given me hope that even though I am a convicted felon I am still a person and I deserve to be heard. I absolutely adore her as a person, as a friend and as one of the best defense attorneys that I have ever met in my life.

Tanya is very supportive and kept me
In the loop without making it scary or daunting. She is also very honest.
Tanya really invests herself in her clients and provides the attention each needs. I never felt like just another case.

I hired Tanya not just once but three times. I have to say that each time she has far exceeded what any previous lawyer has done for me.( Probation violations, and even went to trial for a dui,and did amazing work there!) I have been in trouble numerous times over the years. I have never had a lawyer like her, not only did she represent me . She amazed even me with her knowledge of Law,and the care she gave me. WOW a lawyer that cares for more than just the mighty buck. Shocking but so true! She walked in the court room like a Fiery Fire Cat in heels surprising me with the passion and care she puts into her work. Lawyers tend to take on too many cases, and you dont quite get 100%, with Tanya you get 150%. She will take the time to go over your case,not just showing up and winging it as past lawyers have done for me in the past. I have referred her to anybody I ever come into contact with. I referred one close friend in trouble,and Tanya did amazing things representing him. Tanya is a AWESOME lawyer! Example is that most recently I had violated a 70 month suspended sentence being on probation. I will say that this was my fourth violation. MY FOURTH! I figured as Tanya always got me reinstated, that I could get that. Bad news is I went in front of the judge ( using a public defender) and was given the 70 month prison sentence at this time I freaked out and called Tanya. Tanya not only dropped her fee down, She showed up with little notice, She filed a motion and a week later I was in court and home, and on less probation than I originally had! She saved me from going to prison. I owe Tanya my life! If I could ball her up and carry her around like a cell phone I would. I know when Tanya is around , I am in good hands. I trust her fully, and will recommend her to anybody! I dont look at Tanya just as a lawyer. I look at her as a friend, because only friends can care as much as Tanya does! Thank You Tanya for all that you have done for me. I hope that I dont need you again, but know this.... If I do Im calling you ASAP. You are one kickass lawyer!

I was referred to Tanya by a friend. I am so thankful that I hired her to handle my case. I’d never been in trouble before and was terrified, but she her guidance and compassion made me feel much more at ease through the process. She was always available to answer my questions even if it was a weekend or after 5 pm. My seemingly simple DUI case had a ton of unexpected twists and turns due to circumstances with the court and the case – Tanya was always right on it and aggressively fighting for me in order to get everything resolved quickly and to let me know what was going on. Tanya was knowledgeable and honest. My case ended up getting dismissed completely thanks to Tanya. I’d love to say after reading other people's reviews of her and knowing what I experience that she is a miracle worker but honestly she is highly experienced, intelligent and tenacious to the point that she makes what might seem like a “long short” become a reality. I cannot say thank you enough to her for helping me through this and would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a defense attorney who will passionately fight for your rights!

Tanya is honest, trustworthy,respectful,dedicated, very knowledgeable and inexpensive with my case. My case was successfully granted in less than 3 months like she said it would be. I was looking to get my license back on December 2014 when my 5 year HTO is over but I now have my license due to her dedicatio. Knowing what I know now I would not have chosen any other attorney to pursue my case. After calling around looking for an attorney and everyone except for one I talked to couldn't help me and that one who so called could couldnt or wouldnt tell me how they were going to resolve my issue at hand and on top of that they cost a arm and leg but that was the opposite when I called Tanya and that's why I am so blessed to have been referred to her. Gooo Tanya :-))
