Mr. Dietrich is a good lawyer but an even better person. I fired my first attorney and was desperate to find a replacement. It took 3 months to negotiate and settle my divorce. I wish I would have found him sooner. He's a solid negotiator and his focus is to get you out of court as soon as possible.
I retained Atty Dietrich a few years ago because his firm was highly recommended to me. I was very disappointed with the lack of communication, slow-moving process, and unpreparedness for court. I will not be retaining this attorney again.

Wow...A disappointment beyond measure
Good: He was courteous and respectful. He kept me updated on changes consistently throughout the process. He comes highly recommended based on his previous cases and knowledge.
Bad: His presence in court was nonexistent. He basically got steamrolled by the other attorney and could not muster the energy to stop it. The other attorney even referenced being friends with him WHILE IN COURT. If you give him any feedback, he will become upset and instantly tell you to go find another attorney. I felt like my own private detective and attorney in my divorce case. I had to fire him. Within a month, my new attorney fixed his mistakes and started getting me results. If you are a male, get ready for him to do nothing for you.
