Former NY Deputy Attorney General, Dietrich Snell, has returned to private practice as a partner with Proskauer Rose. Snell left Patterson Belknap in 1988 as a fourth-year associate to join other former Patterson lawyers at the attorney general’s office. Starting in 1998, Snell served in Eliot Spitzer’s New York state attorney general’s office, running the public advocacy division. Then after the 9-11 attacks, he was chosen to head the committee that drafted the 9-11 Commission Report. At Proskauer, Snell will work with Bob Cleary, the head of the firm’s white-collar defense practice.
