Bare gray leafless branch tips standing above an otherwise leafy crown — the classic stag-head look. Leaves smaller and paler than in previous years, or coloring up and dropping in August instead of October. Sprouts breaking out along the trunk and the large limbs low down, which is the tree trying to rebuild a crown at a height it can still supply. Fine twigs that snap brittle instead of bending.

The top of a tree is the far end of the supply line and the hardest place to push water to. When a tree cannot meet demand it abandons its most expensive real estate first, dying back from the top and from the outside in. So dieback that starts high is a message about the bottom of the tree. In most cases the trouble is in the roots or in the water-conducting tissue of the stem, not in the branches you are actually looking at.
This is normally a tree trimming job, which around here runs $250 to $1,400 depending on size and access. Treat that as a range, not a quote — nobody can price it without seeing it.
