SIXTY YEARS OF WINE LAW

With deep roots in wine country and serving clients world-wide, DP&F has developed an unparalleled level of experience in the wine and alcohol beverage industries over six decades of practice.

Our team advises businesses throughout their lifecycle, and in a broad range of matters, including alcohol beverage law, business and corporate dealings, land use matters, labor and employment, civil litigation, intellectual property, geographical indications, and real property transactions.

We help clients navigate the impacts and complexities arising from issues such as shifts in regulatory environments, climate change, and market barriers. Our culture of collaboration and inquiry and unique bank of experience make us well-equipped to tackle whatever comes next.

UNPARALLELED EXPERIENCE IN THE WINE AND ALCOHOL BEVERAGE INDUSTRIES

DP&F attorneys include many recognized leaders in their field, who are routinely recognized by their peers as industry leaders. Our attorneys are frequently invited to speak at leading industry conferences, they lead academic courses in their areas of practice, and they regularly contribute articles to major publications.

WE ADVISE BUSINESSES IN KEY AREAS OF LAW FROM FORMATION TO TRANSITION

Since DP&F was founded in 1964, the firm has proudly emphasized a culture of community involvement and investment, supporting charitable organizations, working on behalf of clients pro bono, and serving the community as volunteers and board members in our local communities in Napa and Sonoma counties, as well as the greater Bay Area legal community.
