Dietze and Davis

What Dietze and Davis does

Dietze and Davis, P.C. is a Boulder, Colorado-based professional corporation law firm founded in 1972 by Peter Dietze and Joel Davis, currently operating with approximately 19 lawyers from its offices at 2060 Broadway, Suite 400, in downtown Boulder. The firm delivers legal services across nine practice areas: business and corporate law, employment and civil rights, energy and utilities regulation, family law, civil and appellate litigation, local government, probate and trust/estate administration, real estate, and water and natural resources law. Its clients span three categories — individuals, businesses, and public entities — with a particularly strong foothold in Colorado-specific regulatory work before the Colorado Public Utilities Commission, FERC, and the state's water courts, as well as serving as municipal counsel for several Colorado jurisdictions.

The firm's revenue model is professional services fees, with engagement pricing structured case-by-case via hourly rates, flat fees, or contingency arrangements depending on practice area; no public pricing schedule is disclosed. The go-to-market motion is sales-led and referral-driven: the firm relies on attorney reputation, bar association leadership (Boulder County Bar Association, Colorado Bar Association), CLE presentations, community involvement (Little League sponsorship, Community Food Share volunteering), and content marketing via its website and news/blog channels to generate inbound work. Notable client engagements include the 500 MW Cheyenne Ridge Wind Project approval, representation on the Xcel Energy Colorado Energy Plan, counsel to Ute Water District on hydropower, and ongoing municipal court judge appointments for multiple Colorado towns.

There is no disclosed proprietary technology stack — Dietze and Davis operates as a traditional law firm with no AI/ML platforms, no app or API products, no SDK offerings, and no integration marketplace. Operational leverage flows from the firm's 50-year brand, regulatory depth in water and energy law, and shareholder promotions that sustain continuity of practice areas. Ownership is held entirely by attorney-shareholders (Anderson, Klotz, Stockmayer, Steffl, Waring among others), with no parent company, external institutional investors, or public listing.
