This guy is ridiculous! Pay over $5000 and my situation is worse then before I hired him. Sits in court with his legs crossed, saying nothing and letting my case just sink. All he cares about is MONEY! GO TO SOMEONE ELSE

Mr. Darrow is easily one of the worst attorneys I have ever dealt with. Very unresponsive and inattentive to needs. Did not share direction or strategy with me as a client. Even resorted to name calling when I expressed my dislike for his performance. Bills for hours of busy work that has no effect on the case. I would avoid this firm at all costs. Their responses to reviews also constitutes lible showing he has no respect for his clients

Attorney Darrow is absolutely the best trial lawyer I ever observed in action. I watched him skillfully exam and cross exam witnesses. He knows how to ask questions and present a winning case. At trial he was extremely organized and well prepared. His team behind the scenes put together the facts and details, nothing was left to chance. The one thing I was concerned about was my dad and his lack of understanding of the legal process of divorce, but attorney Darrow was compassionate and helpful to him, I can not be more pleased! I live far away from my father, and when I contacted his team, they were so prompt and honest in answering all of my questions.

No one wants to need legal counsel but if you do Dwight Darrow will do everything legally possible to obtain the best possible outcome for you. Dwight and his team made me feel as comfortable, calm, and confidant as is possible in these types of situations. Their response time was amazing and the outcome was far better than I imagined possible. Thank you Dwight D Darrow and team!

Maneuvering the murky waters of co-parenting can be difficult; maneuvering with an angry, lying, misogynist, who is paranoid and narcissistic was a sinking situation for my sons. Dwight was a life boat in an impossible situation. He provided calm, pragmatic solutions to our complex problems. He knew how to represent our situation and call out the insincere theatrics by the other party. For the last four years, I have relied on his experience and expertise for our unique situation. Throughout this time, Attorney Darrow has been fair with his fees and generous in his understanding of our complex international case. His staff is prompt, professional, attentive and organized. I can offer Attorney Darrow, and the staff at Darrow & Dietrich, only my highest recommendation.

During my time with Dwight D. Darrow I found him to be of the greatest help. Legal matters are super complex and very difficult for me to understand. Anytime that I had a question or concern about anything, all I would have to do was ask. Dwight would be so kind to break it down into terms that were easy for me to understand.

Life is full of challenges, but nothing like I was faced with in April 2015. After 19 1/2 years of marriage, seven children, and doing everything I thought I was supposed to do as a wife, I was faced with the cold hard facts that my marriage was ending. I didn't know what to do or where to go. A friend referred me to Atty Darrow, and I am so greatful she did. The first time I walked into his office, met his staff and Atty Darrow, I knew my children and I were in good hands. From that day on, Atty Darrow explained, supported and guided me through all the many court dates. His knowledge, experience, integrity, and compassion for my case gave me the strength to stand up for myself and my children. I am a stronger, better more confident person and mother because of his support; he has always given me the truth and instruction I needed to get through those tough days. I know he will continue to be there as new issues arise and he will follow through with every detail and professionalism needed to get the best results for myself and my children. I trust Atty Darrow and his staff completely.

During a very emotional devastating divorce Dwight D. Darrow was my paid knight in shining armor. From day one he was up front, honest and very kind. He gave me words of encouragement when needed and said things I needed to hear, even though I did not want to hear them. No doubt, I tested his patience and he tested mine. He has a strong sense of confidence that comes from his many years of experience and it shows both inside and outside the court room. He knew which experts to hire, what to expect and kept me on track. I always felt he was concerned for my well being and I trusted his advice 100%. His quick wit and sassy sense of humor made me laugh and smile, which was not an easy thing to do at that time. Dwight was more than fair and very generous in his billing practices. His paralegals were prompt, attentive and very well organized. I would & have referred other friends to Dwight. I am grateful God gave me Dwight Darrow as my attorney, during one of the most difficult times of my life. Thank you Dwight and the entire staff at your office, you have my highest recommendation.

Divorce is a challenging and emotional time. Attorney Darrow does a great job of easing the tension. He took the time to explain how each step works and what to expect. He was forceful with opposing counsel when needed but always acted in a professional manner. Attorney Darrow answers emails and questions as soon as possible, even after hours or on the weekend. His experience is obvious, and I had full confidence in him from my initial consultation to the final hearing. My ex made sure the divorce was contentious and challenging. Attorney Darrow handled each phase with poise. I don't understand the negative reviews on here, I would hire Attorney Darrow again in a heartbeat (I just hope I never need to).

I paid him upfront to represent. He never asked any question or any relevant information about me.He was not concerned with the best outcome for me. Once he gets the retainer, his morals disappear.

My family had survived significant trauma, then were served with sole custody papers. The stress and psychological effects were overwhelmingly draining in every way. Dwight was the most competent lawyer I have encountered. He is a combination of assertiveness and compassion. I felt protected and my family knew to their core we were not in danger. He did not pull any punches with me, he told me what I needed to do to keep my child. It was not always what I wanted to hear but I listened and I won.

When I first met Dwight he reminded me of an uncle I had. He was easy to speak to, took notes and even made me feel comfortable. As a marketing consultant I gather quite a bit of data and process it. For my family case I had done the same thing naturally. All Dwight had to do was talk strategy and review the evidence. I wanted to proceed directly to trial. Dwight instructed me to be quite in a closed court room setting when he was agreeing to something that I was not. Everyone's attorney should represent them in the way they wish to be represented. Dwight instead choose to play court room politics and drag out the case for a period of 8 months, at which point I fired him. I made arrangements to come pick up all of my documents and evidence. I arrived to pick up my items and was informed that I could not have my items, unless I signed off on them. She handed me a piece of paper with a pend and said "sign here." I signed and left, only later did I find out it was a document stating that I owed him money. Dwight billed me for unnecessary reasons. Dwight only looks to serve his best interest. His best interest was dragging out the case. His best interest was in billing me for unwanted services. His best interest was not preparing for trial. His best interest was not in arguing on my behalf. His best interest was his and only his. I am currently exploring my options.
