About DeeAn Gillespie
DeeAn Gillespie Strub earned her law degree from Brigham Young University in 1984. She has practiced law in Arizona for decades and has built a career centered on family law. Her legal education and long tenure in the state courts inform a steady, practical approach to cases.
She is the owner and founder of the Law Offices of Gillespie Shields. Over the years she has handled a broad range of family law matters and has been a familiar presence in Arizona courtrooms. Colleagues and clients have encountered her work in both negotiated settlements and contested proceedings.
Strub is a Certified Family Law Specialist through the Arizona State Bar. That credential signifies specialized training and testing in the field and is a formal recognition by the bar of her practice area. She has relied on that specialty to advise clients on divorce, custody arrangements and support issues, among other domestic relations matters.
Her professional affiliations have included the firm Gillespie, Shields, Durrant & Goldfarb, where her offices were listed. That association reflects a period in which she worked alongside other attorneys under a shared firm name. She later continued her practice under the Law Offices of Gillespie Shields, taking a lead role in the firm's direction and client services.
Across a career spanning several decades, Strub has balanced courtroom work with client counseling. She has tried cases and negotiated settlements. She also has worked on the procedural and practical details that shape family law outcomes: pleadings, discovery, parenting plans and enforcement matters. The combination of litigation experience and day-to-day case management is a throughline in her work.
In practice she is based in Arizona and continues to operate the Law Offices of Gillespie Shields. Her current practice concentrates on family law matters in state courts and on advising clients through the practical and legal steps of domestic relations disputes.
