Dmitry Stadlin
Dmitry is genuinely interested in helping people, even if they don’t ultimately retain him as their lawyer. In the Civil, Family, and Criminal courtrooms where he plies his trade, he fights hard for his clients but doesn’t promise anything he can’t deliver. It's important to Dmitry to treat them with empathy. He even makes himself available to talk during evenings and weekends.
As for his academic credentials, Dmitry graduated from the University of California, Davis with a B.A. in Political Science and went on to receive his Juris Doctor degree from the University of California, Hastings College of the Law. He clerked at three District Attorneys’ offices in the Bay Area (Alameda, San Mateo, and Santa Clara counties). But after numerous appearances for “The People” of California, he wanted to represent “real” clients, fighting for justice and rights.
Dmitry worked at several private criminal defense firms before opening his own practice in 2015. In the beginning, he continued to focus on criminal defense, but he soon found that his clients also needed his help when they were dealing with domestic violence issues, with Gun Violence Restraining Orders or in Civil Harassment cases. So he expanded his practice, and handles both sides of Restraining Order cases in Civil Court, and in Family Court.
Dmitry was born near Chernobyl in Kyiv, Ukraine (but he doesn’t glow at night). He likes exploring other cultures, whether through leisure traveling, doing humanitarian work in places like Cuba, or dancing salsa and tango.
When you see him, he’s likely to be smartly dressed with a Starbucks cup in his hand, and he just might crack a dad joke. Dmitry is also a foodie, and he enjoys playing trivia and grand strategy computer games.
I am here to defend you and get you the result you’re looking for.Certification
