"That's good. It's good to have that clear for now," said Deans of the development in Beale's case.
"There's still a shadow in the background but off the back of that you'd hope it will be resolved hopefully out of court.
"He's been working hard, he's got that rib injury but that's settled so he should be in good shape."
A preliminary training squad gathered to train at Leichhardt Oval on Tuesday, with Deans to name a second training squad for next week as well.
Following the two camps, Deans will settle on his final squad.
Ahead of back-to-back clashes with the All Blacks to begin the Rugby Championship, Deans is looking for inexperienced players to make the most of their time in camp in case they're called upon for the expanded tournament which also incorporates South Africa and Argentina.
Deans admits Queensland's elimination from the first round of the Super Rugby finals last weekend was a setback - with Australian players missing out on big-match opportunities.
However, Deans said the positive was his team would be fresh for the upcoming campaign and players would be injected into club rugby over the next three weeks if required.
"It's catch 22 in many ways, we've had the benefit of play-off rugby in recent times and there's no doubt that's been beneficial for those who are lucky enough to get it and it adds to their confidence and their belief," he said.
"But last year is living proof of the fact that it can also eat into and erode the Wallabies prep. So what we lose in one instance we may gain through having a bit more time."
According to Deans, Waratahs wingers Drew Mitchell and Lachie Turner have a lot of work to do fitness wise to earn their place in the final squad, after spending most of the season injured.
Deans said training form would be crucial in determining whether Quade Cooper or incumbent Berrick Barnes would start at No.10 against the All Blacks.
