OPEN POSITIONS

Attorneys
Para-Professionals
Administrative/Support Professionals

Dickenson, Peatman & Fogarty offers a highly professional working environment, with competitive salary and benefits. Compensation for all open positions is dependent on experience.

In its hiring decisions, DP&F has always stressed legal skill, integrity, loyalty to clients, an unselfish attitude and community involvement and service. It goes without saying that top quality law, practiced with integrity, is the best road to success. DP&F strives to meet this standard to the best of its ability. The result is a firm whose lawyers have a wide divergence of interests, respect for each other, and a desire to practice the highest standard of law of which they are capable.

The firm offers several advantages. We practice in an agricultural area of unusual beauty, within a growing civil practice that has the complexity and challenge one might expect from a larger firm practicing in a major city. In addition we maintain a flexibility toward our members' individual goals that is quite unusual.

Legal competence (aptitude and diligence) is our most important hiring criterion. Grades are the easiest determinant of that but we would consider any other available indicator. The applicant's personal qualities are also very important. We seek applicants who value personal relationships among the lawyers in the firm and whose primary professional objective is service to clients.

Established in 1965, Dickenson, Peatman & Fogarty (DP&F) has earned a local, regional and international reputation for its representation of the California wine, restaurant, hotel and related industries. DP&F has locations in Napa and Santa Rosa, California. DP&F is a growing firm that has over 25 lawyers and a team of paralegals and planners in numerous practice areas divided among three interdisciplinary groups focused on our client's pursuits, including (i) Wine, (ii) Hospitality and (iii) Commercial Ventures/Wealth Management. DP&F practices law at the highest level of sophistication, for an equally sophisticated and high-profile clientele, while at the same time recognizing and encouraging each lawyer's commitment to family, the community and other non-legal pursuits.
