Could not recommend Dianne and her team more. I retained her to help me navigate a complex case that involved domestic violence, a restraining order, child custody, and a subsequent divorce. I could not be happier with the outcome, given the circumstances. What I appreciated most about Dianne is her tireless work ethic. She's active in her community of legal specialization and has a clear mastery of the law. Combined with her decades of experience in family courts, it's no surprise things turned out as well as they did.

Dianne Fetzer and her team are one of the hardest working law firms in the Sacramento area. I cannot recommend them enough if you are in need. They listen, they truly care, and are so supportive throughout the entire process. Dianne will fight for you like no other! And their recommendations are always made with the best interest of their client and what is right. I don’t think I could have made it through all the legal garbage if it wasn’t for them. They give you a peace of mind and enable you to sleep at night by knowing they have everything handled. They are worth every penny! Highly recommend if you are in need!

Dianne and her team provided outstanding support during the 4 years in which I was a client of Dianne's. Dianne is extremely tentative with her clients, Dianne or Leslie always made themselves available and especially when they could sense I was feeling low, Dianne is tuned to her clients emotions and reassured me that we would resolve this matter it may take time but we will finalize whatever we were attempting to address. Dianne deep level of knowledge in divorce and the various elements of law enabled her to get right to the point and force difficult situation on to the table. Her detailed documentation was especially useful when attending court and strategically she new how to set up the case to ensure that it was fare even when at times I felt frustrated by the result. My case for child custody was extremely difficult Dianne had to deal with a very manipulative person who would play her attorney and the children against me as the father but she worked tirelessly to make sure that the result of the case was fare. Dianne used various support agencies to address this manipulative person and finally joint custody was awarded by the court. Throughout the custody battle I believed in Dianne but just as important Dianne believed in me. Her staff were also very supportitive especially Leslie she made me feel good and provided additional support when I would visit the office or on the phone if I would call the office. Dianne would review her fees and make the necessary adjustments so that her charges remain fare. Finally I would recommend Dianne and her team to anybody going through divorce especially a high conflict case. Dianne thank you for all your support I was extremely satisfied with the professional manner and the support you provided - Thank you

Ms Fetzer's handling of my divorce was brilliant. She is savvy about the law and has resources that expand beyond her own firm that she can draw from when that will be a benefit to her clients case. I can't speak highly enough of the importance early on of getting an advocate to help navigate the unpleasant process of divorce. Dianne Fetzer will be in your court to protect her client's interest and do her best to keep you from going to court. She is excellent at strategy and sees both parties sides, in terms of fairness and how the law applies to your situation. She is not afraid to go head on with injustice and is uber smart and compassionate, which is often difficult to find both qualities in an attorney. Ms. Fetzer has impeccable work ethic and is well respected by her colleagues, which is a big asset for the client. Dianne is highly experienced about anything to do with Family Law. I do not have young children, but I have witnessed her fierce advocacy on the part of children's best interests being protected and holding the parents to that standard. Dianne will not tolerate bullying and will be your voice when you need it most. In my case, it took coming from a strong legal position to avert a contested (and expensive) outcome for both myself and my ex. In addition, her staff provided clear communication, helpful guidance and were sensitive to the emotional roller coaster one rides during these times. Note: Her firm is small so what you get is personal representation by the same person all the way through the process, reducing the stress of having to make sure everyone is on the same page.

My divorce has been heart-wrenching and difficult. Dianne was compassionate and took the time to explain everything to me and it was a long process for her. I appreciated how kind her staff was and how prompt they answered any questions or concerns I had.

Hiring an attorney is never seen as a good thing, simply due to the fact you are in a bad situation. Money, heartache, your children may all be at stake. Court dates that drag on and on do not help with the cost or stress. However a good attorney can do a lot to significantly reduce your stress by keeping you informed of all matters and options. They can also save you money by pushing all issues quickly and realistically through to fruition. I had a complicated case involving child custody that involved false allegations of abuse. A few of the folks involved were CPS, Sheriffs Dept, DA, DCSS, Minors Council, minors therapist, supervising therapist and on and on. With near 85k in cost and climbing my original attorney retired. I was fortunate enough to get a recommendation to Fetzer Law form another professional. When asking my former attorneys paralegal if she ever heard of Diane Fetzer, her reply was, "the woman is a power house, she returns document often on the same day and we have received two to three well written letters form her in a day. I don't know when she sleeps." Since timeliness is critical to me I immediately set up an appointment and secured her as legal council. I found Diane to be personable, trustworthy, dedicated and most important, has a great deal of personal integrity. Her approach is not grandstanding or bullying (This is rare in a field that seems to draw people with large egos) Diane's approach is to rely on the facts of the case and use her extensive knowledge of family law to persevere. I have had experience with 4 different lawyers over the years and none have been as responsive or acted as quickly as Diane. I sincerely hope your family does not have to go through what we did.. but if you need a family law attorney , Fetzer Law is one of the best.
