Arie Spitz
Partner
Dinsmore and Shohl
707 Virginia St E, Suite 1300
Charleston, WV 25301
Arie is a Chicago native who has lived in Charleston since 2008, when he began working at the law firm of Dinsmore and Shohl. Arie is now a partner at Dinsmore, where he tries to spend as much of his time as possible in the courtroom (or at least out of his office). Prior to moving to Charleston, Arie obtained his BA from the University of Illinois and then his JD, cum laude, from the Penn State Dickinson School of Law. Arie got his first taste of life in the Mountain State working summers at his future mother-in-law's ice cream store, Ellen's Ice Cream, an experience that quickly lead to the knowledge that he wanted to live, and one day raise a family, in West Virginia. Arie's wife Emily teaches middle-school science at Mountaineer Montessori, and their two boys both go to school there as well. You can typically find the family out hiking or rock climbing at the New River Gorge on the weekends, or in town at grandma's ice cream store on just about any day of the week.
